No only that, he "cast the demons" out of someone he knew.

Let's wind the Bobby Jindal time machine back to 1994, when he wrote an
article entitled...are you ready?  Are you sitting down?  "Beating a
Demon: Physical Dimensions of Spiritual Warfare."

No, this was not some term paper for a creative writing class, or an
abstract for Comparative World Religions or Cultural Anthropology.  This
was an actual true to life story;  a personal narrative,  if you will.
Yup.  Bobby Jindal - Demon Beater.  Spiritual Warrior.  Exorcist
Extraordinaire. Who knew?  Did he put this on his resume under "Skills
and Talents"?

The original article will cost you money to see.  But for those of you
not wanting to part with your hard earned $1.50, here are some of the
highlights.

Some background first.  Jindal's best friend Susan has not been doing
well. She's been diagnosed with skin cancer, and her behavior has become
strange and erratic.  She is surrounded by "sulphurous smells," and has
come to a prayer meeting for help.

Jindal writes:

The students, led by Susan's sister and Louise, a member of a
charismatic church, engaged in loud and desperate prayers while holding
Susan with one hand. Kneeling on the ground, my friends were chanting,
"Satan, I command you to leave this woman." Others exhorted all "demons
to leave in the name of Christ." It is no exaggeration to note the tears
and sweat among those assembled. Susan lashed out at the assembled
students with verbal assaults.

Whenever I concentrated long enough to begin prayer, I felt some type of
physical force distracting me. It was as if something was pushing down
on my chest, making it very hard for me to breathe. . . Though I could
find no cause for my chest pains, I was very scared of what was
happening to me and Susan. I began to think that the demon would only
attack me if I tried to pray or fight back; thus, I resigned myself to
leaving it alone in an attempt to find peace for myself.

It appeared as if we were observing a tremendous battle between the
Susan we knew and loved and some strange evil force. But the momentum
had shifted and we now sensed that victory was at hand.While Alice and
Louise held Susan, her sister continued holding the Bible to her face.
Almost taunting the evil spirit that had almost beaten us minutes
before, the students dared Susan to read biblical passages. She choked
on certain passages and could not finish the sentence "Jesus is Lord."
Over and over, she repeated "Jesus is L..L..LL," often ending in
profanities. In between her futile attempts, Susan pleaded with us to
continue trying and often smiled between the grimaces that accompanied
her readings of Scripture. Just as suddenly as she went into the trance,
Susan suddenly reappeared and claimed "Jesus is Lord."

With an almost comical smile, Susan then looked up as if awakening from
a deep sleep and asked, "Has something happened?" She did not remember
any of the past few hours and was startled to find her friends breaking
out in cheers and laughter, overwhelmed by sudden joy and relief.
