    Responses to Terrorism: USA vs Spain vs London

    Do you feel that one country had a better or worse response than another? On one hand, I feel that London is doing a better job than New York. The transit system was up and running almost immediately afterward, and there are some commuters. I also liked the comments made: On the...

    Important Question!

    I find it utterly ridiculous that my library network (which is rather expansive) doesn't have any of LaVey's writings. Did he write under a pseudonym??? Is there a compilation that includes his writings? I really want to read this...

    Is everything we create already inside us?

    It occured to me that perhaps the human being is indeed the pinnacle of invention, and that most, if not everything we create is based on something in the human body. Our joints are an amazing system of levers that move smoothly and effectively almost always. Our bodies cultivate bacteria to...

    O'Connor RETIRES!

    Sandra Day O'Connor is retiring! http://apnews.myway.com//article/20050701/D8B2MR500.html what do you think this will mean for the Supreme Court?! I will solely miss her as a Justice...she has a bluntness that brings respect, and I greatly admired her speaking out against the...

    Prima just got bit in the butt...

    As I so eloquently referred to it in a previous thread. In other words, I made a stupid, thoughtless magical blunder due to a lack of planning, or more correctly, pure stupidity. I'll attempt to explain this one, but it might be a little difficult seeing as how I made the whole thing up. I'm...

    Can you see magic?

    I wish I could, honestly. It makes my life difficult sometimes that I can't!

    How far is too far?

    Some things are just common sense - people who have repeatedly stabbed others with knives shouldn't be allowed to own knives. Sex offenders probably shouldn't work at Victoria's Secret. Child sex offenders shouldn't run a daycare. The question is - how far is too far? Some precautions in...

    Mark Ryden

    www.markryden.com He's a leader in contemporary art - at least, I consider him to be. Only time tells! There are a lot of similarities to Kahlo in the blood and guts imagery, and some non-sexual nudity. Once you get past the rather startling images, there are some pretty deep...

    Where do you get most of your ideas from?

    Because paganism doesn't have set doctrines, I'm just wondering where most of you get your ideas from...

    Did you know that...

    Squirrels cannot have rabies? Go ahead - guess how I know. I got attacked by a squirrel today! I was all worried, thought I'd have to get all those rabies shots, but thankfully, I just needed a tetanus shot. For the record, it bled a LOT, and those little buggers have sharp teeth...

    Basic mind over body?

    WOW...just had one of the coolest experiences ever. This is going to sound really stupid at first, I think, so read at your own risk :areyoucra I was standing outside, and there was a rabbit in the yard across the street. Well, I'm sure you guys have realized how stubborn I am, so I decided...

    Can anyone spare...

    an immune system? It would be really nice if just for a month - or even a week - I wasn't sick at all, or didn't have to take five billion medications! Is anyone else prone to sickness and body issues besides me?

    Where are you?

    Some people, when they meditate or practice magic, find themselves in a very specific place. For example, some people find themselves on a kind of path in a forest. Do you find yourself somewhere? Do you visualize yourself somewhere? If so, where? What is it like? Is it a real place?

    Visualization Challenge

    Most people here like music...a lot :) This is a project my Perspectives teacher had us do. It improves the way you connect your senses and the way you think. Pick music - between fifteen seconds and two minutes is usually easiest - without words and create a piece of art of that music...

    The Anabaptists - Amish and Mennonite Life and beliefs

    Many people have heard about the Amish, most notably their lack of technology. But the Amish society and beliefs are much more than that - they are a meld of religion and daily life. Having just visited Lancaster and learned a lot about the Amish first-hand, I thought this might be helpful...

    What do you think?

    Browsing one of my favorite sites, I ran across this: http://www.soyouwanna.com/site/syws/judaism/judaism.html Did they do a good job summarizing? Do you think it was bad/good/okay to put all the jokes in there? Was there something they got just plain wrong? I'm curious to know....:)

    Were the Magi Zoroastrian?

    Many people have heard this idea - the three wise men who in the Bible bring gifts to the baby Jesus were Zoroastrian priests, which shows that other religions recognized the baby as the Messiah. But is this true? What evidence is there? At the time of Jesus's birth, Zoroastrianism was a...
