Very interesting piece , it was fascinating to read about Rita and what you describe as her demons, clearly she didn't see it that way. I personally believe religion and 'demonic' behaviour goes hand in hand and can trigger a psychosis in some people. As a social worker I had a case of a young woman whose mother was very religious and would condemn her to hell for choosing to do something different other than attending church on a Sunday. Notice the small letter 'h', in hell, it means nothing to me, I see it as a religious belt used to keep churchgoers tied to a belief system that relies on church numbers.
Mark Twain's quote is brilliance! Peace.
