How can I tell if I'm ment to be a Witch, Wiccan or other related practitioner? How could you tell it was right for you?

It seems to me that the number of points needed to reach Level 2 are ever changing - am I crazy?!? I keep thinking that I have finally reached the goal stated the last time I logged on only to be informed that I haven't quite reached Level 2 yet. What exactly is the points needed to qualify for Level 2 - I am anxious to be able to rate the answers to questions I am interested in.

First, you join a party because that's what mummy and/or daddy did. Then, you get the secret handshake and get invited to ALL the fundraisers and riots. Christians are Democrats, Muslims Republicans. "Third parties" are Hindus (Libertarian), Buddhist (Green), Wicca (Peace and Freedom), Pastafarians (Communist) and of course Atheists are independents. Anybody can theoretically vote for another parties candidate (for saint maybe in the case of religion) but the two top parties (sorry, this is horribly USA-centric) cannot cross party lines under any circumstances - they are in the death-match and cannot even switch to the other party without being disowned by their families. Everybody else can pretty much attend the other's festivities and mostly just enjoy life. And of course everybody laughs at the Wiccans and their prospects of world domination (but the Wicca don't mind because they're just in it for the society anyway).

Did I miss anything?

“and he (Jesus) saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.”
[Mark 14:32]



“Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened.”
[Luke 3:21]



“And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.”
[Luke 6:12]



“And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.”
[Luke 22:44]



“And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.”
[Matthew 26:39]

It's a true fact so don't kick your kid out on the street like most ignorant people do because God will send you to hell for dishonoring his Chosen People.

How can I find out if maybe he might be interested in talking about the possibility without getting accused of either sexual harassment - unwanted overture, or having him trying to "out" me when I don't even really know if that's what's really happening to me? It's weird. I just really like him, and everything is quite confused for me right now. I have had a solid hetero relationship, and I like women, but this is new and feels good and real. Can anyone help?

I usually hear a lot about Kwanzaa but this year I'm not hearing much, it's just "Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah." but not Kwanzaa. A couple of years ago there was a lot of Kwanzaa celebrations going on. This year I haven't heard one peep of Kwanzaa. Too bad because there are some great values to live by.

I have devoted myself to a year and a day of study. I feel like there's something inside of me, drawing me to Wicca. I notice little parts of it everyday, no matter where I am. I feel I should tell my family (specifically my dad). I previously was raised as a Baha'i, but some things haven't sat well with me for a long time. This feels right. My dad has many pagan friends, many of whom are Wiccan. He once told me that he would always keep an open mind. However, I have hinted about my beliefs, and every time he becomes hostile and patronizing. My friend once asked him point blank if he would be okay having a pagan doughter. He said yes to her, but afterwords was asking me about a lot of basic beliefs, and treating me as if I knew absolutlely nothing about it. How can I tell him and make him believe that I'm serious about this?

I once saw a Christian that did not pray before eating, is that considered a sin or heinous crime to god. Will he be banished from the church for eternality?
If a person kills twenty people in a mass shooting, is he free of sins after a concession or reconciliation? Will he be able to rise to heaven after death?

I have a purse that has no fastening buttons and I used it for a little bit because it was cute. I did not have a wallet and I paper clipped my money. Someone in my class today stole it when I went to turn in a test I believe. It was 28 dollars and I know it may not seem like a lot. I'm 16 and I don't have a job (too busy with schoolwork to have one) and I work so hard to get my money. I haven't spent it in years, I save and penny pinch everything I can. My friend is always playing with my money and I think it was him, but I have no idea. It's really getting me mad because I can't believe someone would do that to me. Will you please pray for me that I get it back or someone finds it?

Is this a Da Vinci Code thing? Are folks aware of how completely ridiculous it is? Have they actually read any reputable scholarship on the subject?

He only hangs out with girls, he has no guy friends, he spends 30 mins. in front of the mirror to do his hair, he sorta talks funny, and it's always really awkward when he's around us. We all think he's gay, but he would die if we approached him about it. He's a severely devout Catholic. Is he just "struggling?"

I saw an answer from Smiley.George that I thought was just pretty ridiculous so I clicked on him to see who he was. It said he had a 36% percent best answer percentage. I thought how could that be possible with the stupid answers he gives so I started looking at all his best answers. They were ALL chosen by voter. Not chosen by asker. Then I noticed that almost every one of his best answers had exactly 3 votes.

OOOKKKK. So now we all know his answers SUCK. He just gets on Yahoo answers under 3 different accounts and votes for himself everytime the asker doesn't choose a best answer.

So, let's make a deal! Whoever asks a question, if Smiley.George gives you any answer at all CHOOSE A BEST ANSWER! Smiley.George will be down around 1% by the end of the month.

We live in an apartment complex. My wife works from home so someone is always home but the mail man comes at various times sometimes 10am sometimes 5pm. So we cant just keep checking all day and usually the office closes around 5pm. He automatically delivers all packages to the office. If I am not mistaking we pay when paying for shipping for atleast an attempt at delivering to our place. I would much rather him leave it at the door than just take it to the office. Any advice? I dont want to say anything and then next thing you know our packages and mail starts mysteriously disappearing??
