To use an air conditioner is not the same as condoning witch-craft. Christians should then only eat food prepared by our Christians, drive cars that are made by other Christians? i think that would be falling into a cult-like mentality. Christians are to be in the world but not of the world. To use air-conditioning does not mean that they are condoning any pagan belief or practice.
Air conditioning is not the work of Satan...
Your logic is quite flawed and i think you are drawing connections that are not there...

and they d@mn near worship Lincoln, who was an Atheist.
"The Bible is not my book nor Christianity my profession. I could never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma."- Abraham Lincoln, American president (1809-1865).
a quote for the would be attackers that are sure to follow that statement about their beloved "god like hero".
and Edison!!! they all use electricity..and yet HE was Atheist too.
"Religion is all bunk."- Thomas Edison, American inventor (1847-1931).
and there is Mark Twain..who is an Atheist as well...is one of the most LOVED authors we know!
"I cannot see how a man of any large degree of humorous perception can ever be religious -- unless he purposely shut the eyes of his mind & keep them shut by force."- Samuel Clemens "Mark Twain", American author and humorist (1835-1910).
and of course lets not forget our artitsts! some are considered the BEST the world has ever known.
like Van Gogh!
"I can very well do without God both in my life and in my painting, but I cannot, suffering as I am, do without something which is greater than I am, which is my life, the power to create."-Vincent Van Gogh, Dutch painter
its makes me SICK to see ppl refuse to acknowlede that these amazing ppl didn't have the same beliefs as they do..they just assume!
well who is the biggest @ss now?
EDITED:
listen to them back peddling!!!! unbelievable!! it either IS or it isn't there is NO difference.
and lets say it wasn't air conditioning but an album (nothing witchcraft in nature) but just BECAUSE of the connection it would be considered tainted...but give them something they can't live without..and roll out the excuse red carpet ladies and gentlemen...here they come!!!

If a person is supposed to denounce Satan, witches and pagans, then you are right....... Christians should NOT use a/c or the computer......I'm sure there are hundreds more because most scientists are pagans or atheists!

i offered a GMH95 Variable velocity furnace this twelve months and that i could no longer be happier. Longest guarantee contained available in the industry and that i observed that even the end is equipment grade. Rubber seals on the doors and around all openings to get rid of any rattles. ok direction a furnace is in basic terms virtually as good because of the fact the setting up. No nightmare right here, purely a appropriate device that heats the dwelling house completely.

People are people. It should not matter the belief system as long as no one is trying to force their beliefs on you.
There is a nice marble statue of Dr. Carrier in the Statuary Hall in the United States Capitol Building.

Well, we certainly are reaching. Make sure you are on solid ground and not a ledge. Reaching that far out may cause you to fall.
:-) You guys are starting to crack me up---I don't think I have read so many posts by folks who are obviously self-medicating. *sigh* Get a grip guys......I don't know where you get your information but it is a hoot to read. Sounds more like urban legends to me. Only take one pill at a time. It may help you more than 5 at a time. :-)

So where do you live and work? I'm coming by and shutting off the air conditioning in your home and your work place.
