No, don't think I'm being attacked. If I did I would write the person
directly and not on the list. I do however think it's weird for folks
AGAINST what I percieve most on this list do or practice to join the
list and say that this list is an example of how 'evil' or 'satan' has
infiltrated the internet to lead all the good people astray.
I also thinks it's strange that none of us (ie* those who believe in
or practice alternative spirituality) bother to do the same on Their
lists. It's like being against Playboy magazine, then subscribing to
it so that you can complain to the editors about ****ity... (just an
example, I actually dislike Playboy myself) It makes no sense, and
serves only as an irritation for all concerned on both sides of the
issue.
I do have one question for Mika:
Are you saying you think I should unsubscribe from this list? Do my
comments or opinions unsettle you? I never posted anything that might
lead you to believe anything that would lead to your comments... so I
am slightly confused by them. Why is it, by the way- that anyone
should challenge any on their own beliefs? It should not matter, save
only to the individual that belief serves... It would be childish and
illogical to challenge someone on their beliefs when it is their soul
and their deep personal convictions, not yours or mine. Perhaps my
words have misled you in some way... if so, that was not my intention.
The way I veiw this is if you or anyone else believes the same things
I do - great - if not, then I hope that all concerned are happy and
satisfied with their beliefs... peace to them. If someone however,
comes to say a gathering those of us who do believe similarly attend
and begins judging or blasting us for our beliefs - then that's a
different tune. One I don't like to play.... Things get messy.
If there's something about my beliefs that you wish to question, ask
away. That is the way we understand each other. Thanks for informing
me this list is not wiccan/witch/pagan or religiously oriented. I did
think it was to begin with, as most other religions condemn the
practice of magick, the occult, spells, hexes, ect.- which is weird as
most published surviving records of such things call on God or Christ
to enable these actions.... bizarre.
