OK, thanks for reading to begin with.Here I am posting a message from a former brother in Christ. Moreover, an old friend who I dearly love. Someone who drank, eat and played music with me. Someone…Continue

I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this old rhyme, and is there any validity to it? I am constantly in contact with clover, and yum yum, I love dill pickles LOL.BB,LarryContinue

Satan: Christian Trickster Deity?

Started this discussion. Last reply by Sparrow May 22, 2011. 11 Replies 0 Likes

Merry we meet!Recently, I watched Rev. Don's Vlog about "trickster" deities. It seemed as if a light came on for me about the Christian concept of Satan. Anthropologically speaking, Satan is a deity…Continue

Crystals definitely have a mind of their own. Mine do, anyway, and are NEVER where I leave them.

Laramie Roush replied to Merticus's discussion 'Death Of An Occult Crime Expert Reawakens Controversy'

It's quite alright :) Don Rimer and Mike Warnke were both in the same "business", so to speak. My post which originally referred to Warnke is missing.(?!?) I didn't delete it, yet it is gone and probably led to this…

Rachael, The man we are talking about ISN'T DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S MIKE WARKE, NOT DON RIMER! Maybe you need to re-read my last post.

Laramie Roush replied to Merticus's discussion 'Death Of An Occult Crime Expert Reawakens Controversy'

Rachael, Mike Warnke is the man who, more than any other, prompted the "Satanic Panic" back in the 80's. Warnke claimed that he was a former Satanic HP, claimed that he held a doctrate in Divinity (he didn't), and like Don Rimer…

Laramie Roush replied to Merticus's discussion 'Death Of An Occult Crime Expert Reawakens Controversy'

We believe in no authoritarian leadership, remember? Absolutely, yet we all have those we look to for guidance: mentors, priests and priestesses, counselors etc . . . Perhaps a better choice of words is in order? LOL! And yes, it is a shame that…

Laramie Roush replied to Merticus's discussion 'Death Of An Occult Crime Expert Reawakens Controversy'

Interesting that the only "Christ-Like" behavior in this story was that of the Pagans, who prayed for him and were admonished by leadership not to take joy in his passing. Now, remember, Mike Warnke is still out there ;) BB, and thanks for…

Laramie Roush replied to Mary Blood's discussion 'Christians and Wiccans sharing prayer space'

This is hilarious, but illustrates the differences which exist, even within one sect of Christianity. There are Freewill Baptists, Southern Baptists, American Baptists, etc . . . Not all of these "Baptists" accept each other. Freewill…

Laramie Roush replied to Sparrow's discussion 'Healing Wounds of the Past/ Wiccan Together'

Sparrow, the folks who you are wanting to reach an agreement with do not believe that CNT is a valid form of Wicca, any more than Baptist is a valid form of Catholocism. They claim to be BTW, and the anology works as well as any I can think of. To…

He probably means well... but if he cannot abide by your wishes, then I have to say that he's not a very good friend. Perhaps you should point this out to him.

Phoenix Rising replied to Laramie Roush's discussion 'Broom Closet And Christianity'

Good call, Rafe! Your last sentence, "That man left a pagan...", is very true! To be and remain a Centurion, he would have been sacrificing to the Emperor's Genius and honoring the State Religion of Rome, as well as following his…

Phoenix Rising replied to Laramie Roush's discussion 'Broom Closet And Christianity'

I like your imagery, Larry! The 'different Paths to the same goal' isn't new, but the idea of different VEHICLES is very nice! I hadn't seen that before, and it struck me as being very apt~

Profile Information

Are you a Witch School Supporting Member?: Yes, I am working on the first degree course at the moment. I'm also taking some of the other classes as I go along.

What Experience in Paganism/Wicca would you like to share?: No.
I am Cherokee by birth, and find the similarities in all Earth based religions fascinating. I am active at a Baptist church as a focal point for community service. I follow the teachings of Yeshua of Nazareth, and consider him my favorite wizard, and master of the art of loving, but do not approve of the awful things which have been done in his name. I was drawn to the Correllian Nativist tradition since it blends ideas which are Cherokee and Scott, and yes, there is a drop of Scottish blood in my veins! . . . the best of both worlds!

What is your Age: 50, but getting younger the more I rock'n'roll!

Larry's "Spells Of The Month"

Posted on April 12, 2011 at 6:30pm 9 Comments 5 Likes

Over the last couple of years I have been writing spells for needs as they arise. At some point I have realized that I really enjoy the process of writing the incantations, rituals, and rules of correspondence. Some spells that I have personally used started off as something which I had either discovered in a spell-book, or had been given to me by friends. When using someone else's spells I follow my own rules of cooking by recipe in the kitchen: I adjust the ingredients and cooking times to…

Spearfinger: A Scary Cherokee Story For Halloween (And Benjamin)

Posted on September 21, 2010 at 11:28pm 5 Comments 0 Likes

As per Benjamin's request after a previous post here is another Cherokee story.

And this is the perfect time of year to tell it. Enjoy :)

Long, long ago--hïlahi'yu--there dwelt in the mountains a terrible

ogress, a woman monster, whose food was human livers. She could take on

any shape or appearance to suit her purpose, but in her right form she

looked very much like an old woman, excepting that her whole body was

covered with a skin as hard as a rock… Continue

The Divine Matrix

Posted on August 29, 2010 at 9:57pm 15 Comments 0 Likes

I saw tonight that there were a few related discussions dealing with divinity. I am currently reading a book by Gregg Braden, which has the same title as this discussion.

One thing which I noticed in the discussions taking place here was a common notion that science seems to displace spirituality. I think a quote is in order here:

"A little science will lead us away from God. Much science will lead us back to him." Louis…

And Now: The Number Seven

Posted on August 18, 2010 at 11:30pm 5 Comments 0 Likes

Sound a bit like an episode of Sesame Street?

Well, I posted about the number 7 on one of Benjamin's Brain Picks, and suddenly I was asked to say more about the number. To start with, I am not a numerologist. I am trained in the art of Musick. (note to spell-check: Yes, I meant to spell it that way!) So what I really want to write about is vibrations and frequencies. For to me, Musick and Magick are essentially the same thing. Now, if I were to suspend a chain of a…
