mumbo jumbo has many meanings. I am interested in theosophy, philosophy, theology and gnosticisim and have come across reconstructionalism,manichaeism,catharism,mandeanism,zoroastrianism,yazdanism, neo-manichaeism. akhenaten, mani,zoroaster,mazdak, blessed be thier names.

I want to escape from 'ignorance' from a world corrupted by the 'Worldy Idols' (these are abstract representations) I believe in order to change for the better I must go through both 'spiritual self-exploration' ( as in restoration,illumination,awakening and fufillment) and 'gaining knowledge' (understanding more beliefs, empirical and prepositional knowledge-i know of mani and I have heard of buddha. Only the 'ignorant' can be limited to their own circles of belief and ideas, whilst I desire to be cognizant; knowing more and building up knowledge,to be a bastion.I am forever leaning new things .

It is wrong for a person to know the world, to divide wright from wrong. To 'transcend' the world is my task.

My sister and her boyfriend befriended people, so called Wiccans. After some trouble (that was sorted out), they were informed during the weekend that they intend on killing her boyfriend as he is a gate keeper for demons. They also said that he was possessed by demons and if this wasn't done, that he would kill her. She asked them on how they were intending on killing him and they replied with some or other spell. I know a core rule is that if no harm is done, you may proceed. But this confuses me now and I'm thinking that they aren't true Wiccans at all. Can someone please shed some light on this so that I can advise my sister and her boyfriend on what to do. Thank you.

I am happy to purchase cd's but would prefer paid/free downloads. This is said to have an extremely soothing effect listening to the water crashing down... Any other suggestions would be good too...

can you list what you regard as three most important works that the Christian community should do (other than preaching that atheists or whoever should accept Jesus as his/her saviour) and why those?

for all of the people who feel that gay people should not adopt, what do you proposed we do with all the babies out here who dont have a place to call home? living in foster care is a nightmare and the older children seem to have no hope with getting adopted. and straight couples who cannot conceive naturally are looking at alternatives such as in vitro and articificial insemination in order to have children. do you honestly think that it would be more beneficial for these children to live in and out of foster care than to have someone love and take care of them regardless of their sexual preference?
