I couldn't figure out the meaning of the sentence"Did you just witness the one-woman homage to The Exorcist? ", which is a script of the movie "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days", Ben said this to his friends after Andie left. Earlier he said to Andie that she was " like a freakin' one-woman circus".
Could you help me of the meaning? Thanks a lot!

He means she's acting like a crazy person, possessed by the devil. (So she has her own "normal" personality but then she just sometimes acts like another (far less attractive) person entirely.) The Exorcist was a movie about a girl who was possessed by the devil.
For the one-woman circus line, basically the same, she's acting five different ways at once.

What a wonderful question. Religion is, of course, the form that one's worship takes. Thus there are thousands of forms. Religion includes a system of religious beliefs and practices. The object of the religion may be false gods or the true God. Hence, there is false religion and there is true. Religion can get very fancy or remain simple. In the former case, such as it is today. In the latter case, such as it was in the Garden of Eden. What then is worship to me? How do I worship? To worship means to obey. And to obey means to worship. The two are intimately connected; indeed, they are coterminous and cannot be separated. Specifically, to obey the Sovereign Lord God Jehovah of Armies is to worship Him. I do my imperfect best in this regard. I fall on my face and get back up to try and try again. In the Garden of Eden, so long as they obeyed Jehovah, Adam and Eve were worshiping him. No temple, no Mosaic Law, no meetings. Simply leave the tree of the knowledge of good and bad alone. Simple. The minute they disobeyed, they stopped worshiping Jehovah. Same with the nation of Israel. The minute they attempted to practice a syncretistic religion they stopped worshiping Jehovah. The minute they made the golden calf, they stopped. And on and on. To worship is to obey. To obey is to worship. Hannah J Paul
