These edicts are referred to with the same zeal that an ecumenical scholar might use when discussing the Catholic Dogma. Almost all the rules and laws

Extreme pain can trigger out-of-body experiences, as the conscious mind disengages to protect itself. Any lurking possessors see this as the equivalent of a free lunch – there’s a living body right there with no mind to protect it. They can just walk right in.
