A video of a boy convulsing, as church elders cast out a "homosexual demon" from his body has caused outrage.

"Rip it from his throat!" a woman yells. "Come on, you homosexual demon! You homosexual spirit, we call you out right now! Loose your grip, Lucifer!"

Church members stand the 16-year-old on his feet by holding him under his arms, and people shouting as organ music plays.

"Come out of his belly," someone commands. "It's in the belly - push."

Later, the teenager is back on the floor, breathing heavily. Then he's coughing and apparently vomiting into a bag.

"Get another bag," a participant says. "Make sure you have your gloves."

As the youth lay back on the ground, limp, church members put a white sheet over him.

The 20-minute video posted on YouTube by Manifested Glory Ministries is being called abuse by gay and youth advocates, who are demanding an investigation.

A church official this week denied that the boy was injured or that the church is prejudiced.

"We believe a man should be with a woman and a woman should be with a man," the Rev. Patricia McKinney said.

"We have nothing against homosexuals. I just don't agree with their lifestyle."

Robin McHaelin, executive director of True Colors, an advocacy group for gay youths, said her organisation is aware of five cases in recent years in which youths in her programme were threatened with exorcism.
