Well, I had a peek at the xianity side of things. One woman is freaking out because her 18 year old son is getting into Wicca and wants to know how to make him get out of it. One, Father Chuck I believe, is actually stating that wiccans will actually put "demon attached pins under his skin to follow him around. And they tell him that if he tries to remove them he'll die, and many kids believe it so much that they do die." Wonder if he means body piercing????
I can hardly believe it in this day and age! I get the feeling this is the same sort that said abot Dunguens and Dragons books, "If you burn them they scream!" And that the figurines wake up at night and walk around!
She's asking questions about wicca, shouldn't we at least give her the Whole Truth?

It is a same that people can tell these untruths an even worse that there are people that will believe it. I understand your desire to right this wrong, but I believe that people would see us as intrusive. If this person or people had sought the truth they would have come to the source. The saddest part I think is that this person would believe the outrages stories and not believe the truth. To thine own self be true. Know the truth in your heart.
Merry part. (:K
