Whites have a multitude of eye color, and hair colors, types,and shades, freckles, pale white skin to golden brown, various height differences and facial features earlobes, nose, eyebrows. If I compare this to other races, the diversity that Europeans have is clear and unequaled by any.

you're going shopping for the holidays and you ask the people on your list, "What do you want me to get you?" And they say, "Oh, I don't know." or "I'm not sure."

Grr. It angers me. I got some money today and I called the last four people on my list asking what they wanted. And I got the same response. Does this frustrate you?

Is it a gift from God?

Who or what are these things and WHY do we need them for our circles? What purpose do they serve? How do they fit in with God/Goddess in our worship?

I know that these are the most basic of questions and it seems like a royal pain having to answer these trivial questions. However, these are things that non-pagans tend to be curious about and whne we just brush them off they feel as though we don't REALLY understand what it is that we are doing. They need to see and understand that we take ourt beliefs seriously, that we're not just following a silly fad and that our Religious practices are just as valid as theirs.

Ive always been fansinated with people defying gravity and phyicis and i was reading on eastern religons about chakras and came up with my own working tecnique of walking on water all you need is faith .

1 Open up all your chakras for information on how visit (http://www.crystalinks.com/chakras.html)

2 You can do this on your bath fill the bath tup up 75 percent up the way and lie down in it

3 Close your eyes and Say "I am not condemed to the laws of gravity" Ten times or more untill you really belive it

4 I am water water is me i am like water repeat ten times

open your eyes and stand up stand in a balanced way so you can begin you can walk on water by distributing weight in such a way that surface tension does not break, there will be sufficient buoyancy to avoid sinking below the surface


5 jump up and you will be standing on the water
9 minutes ago - 3 days left to answer.


I know the tecnique does work if you have your chakras open and belive.

What many non-pagans want to know is why do many of us have to cast a circle everytime that we wish to do one of our rituals? Why not just have a church or a specific "sacred" place that we use ALL the time? They have noticed that we seldom use the same place everytime we worship and are curious as to why?

I know that there are many types of circles and they are ALL sacred spaces BUT they do not understand our need for this and this is one question that I have been asked numerous times by non-pagans. Please be as specific as possible.

Recently I posted a prayer request. I suffer with anxiety and agoraphobia. It has been debilitating for me, and I have since suffered with toothaches avoiding the dentist. I am scheduled for a root canal on Friday at 12:30. I have been praying consistantly and I want to tell you all that your prayers have also been helping. I prayed for a later date in the week last weekend because the only available apmt at that time was Tuesday and I need my boyfriend to be with me, and this day is difficult for him, and for me. On MONDAY morning, the dentist called with an opening on Friday, which gives us both alot of time to prepare. I had several signs that had the word, "Miracle" in them over the weekend... laughing in my head saying, "Yeah right", and sure enough, God answered my prayer on Monday. Nothing is more encouraging then answered prayers. Please pray for me again, that I am calm, brave and content in the dental chair, and before hand, in Jesus name. I never believed in anything more.

Scottish & English Armies
In the old days the English and Scottish armies used to fight by gathering their armies on top of the hills and at day break they would run down the hillside into the deep gorge below to fight.

One morning at dawn there was a fog (as thick as pea soup) and the two generals decided to refrain from fighting that day. Whilst the two armies were resting a voice, with a scottish accent came from within the dense fog.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 10 englishmen".

With this, the english general sent down 10 of his soldiers. There was a hell of a fight and NO ONE returned. An hour later, the same voice was heard.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 50 englishman".

With this the english general sent down 50 of his soldiers. The same thing, a terrible fight ensured and again NO ONE returned. An hour later the same voice.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 100 englishman".

Same same, down went 100 of the best. NO ONE returned. An hour later.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 1,000 englishman".

By this time, the english general had enough and was about to send down his elite soldiers, when he saw a lone englishman crawling up the hill. He was battered to a pulp. As he reached his general he said, "Don't send any more troops down, its a trap, THERES TWO OF THE BASTARDS".

In my bible (kjv) it says God SAID let there be light, and there was. It says he caused the earth to come up from the water. It says he created the birds plants, animals, etc etc.
But why does it give the recipe for man? One could assume he spoke all the other things into creation, but why did he need something else to make us? Why was earth so integral? Why did he breath life into man, instead of just speaking?
