Considering I've been called evil and a Satanist I am loathe to reply, but I don't doubt that some curtain closing pooh bear of a Christian may well have been there. What of it? They are no superior. Not one soul deserved to be tormented or to die. a reply to: ketsuko

I am a wiccan and practice strictly white light magick, and a little ritual magick that does not seek to hurt or harm. This is so serious I don't dare to say exactly what I think. I am very worried about New Years Eve mass events involving music. a reply to: elementalgrove
Aye my new friend, we must prepare ourselves for what is to come.
As the battle of good vs evil coalesces standing within our power and calling in the higher energies is all we can do.
Prayer is a powerful method of creation, may you be blessed during the "dark winter" they have been developing.

No, please. Speak up about your thoughts on this.
That's what this site is all about.
I echo Havok's sentiment here
The Bible does not differentiate between “good” and “bad” magic. Magic is magic as far as the Bible is concerned. Scripture doesn’t distinguish whether the magic is supposed to be used for good or for bad; it’s all forbidden because it appeals to a source of power other than God.
Those who practice white magic, also often called Wicca, worship the creation rather than the Creator, and, while they may not call on the devil or evil spirits, they often appeal to “mother earth,” angels, and/or the elements.
hroughout Scripture, in both the Old and New Testaments, all forms of witchcraft are in violation of God’s law and are condemned. (Deuteronomy 18:10–16; Leviticus 19:26, 31; 20:27; Acts 13:8–10).
Pharaoh’s magicians used their “secret arts” to try to duplicate the miracles done by Moses and Aaron (Exodus 7:11; 8:7)—secret arts are the ceremonies or rituals sorcerers use to accomplish their magic, involving incantations, spells, magic words, charms, amulets, etc.
The apostle Paul condemned Elymas the sorcerer, proclaiming him a “child of the devil” who was full of “all kinds of deceit and trickery” and was “perverting the right ways of the Lord” (Acts 13:10). The apostle Peter likewise condemned Simon the magician in Acts 8:20–23. Nowhere in the Bible is a practicing sorcerer or magician portrayed in a positive light
Christians getting scared.

If you do not understand the Devil then there is no way you can ever hope to overcome the Devil. If you think the Devil is working through others to harm you, then you don’t understand the Devil and you are probably an asset to the Devil.

The word gospel is derived from the Anglo-Saxon term god-spell, meaning “good story,” a rendering of the Latin evangelium and the Greek euangelion, meaning “good news” or “good telling.”
Psalm 82:
God has taken his place in the divine council;
in the midst of the gods he holds judgment:
“How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;
maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”
They have neither knowledge nor understanding,
they walk about in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
I said, “You are gods,
sons of the Most High, all of you;
nevertheless, like men you shall die,
and fall like any prince.”
Arise, O God, judge the earth;
for you shall inherit all the nations!

I have crossed swords with Roman Catholic and Born Again wizards and warlocks its still magic but God looks after it not you which is the difference
EVERY single image that I see from that concert is as evil as it gets.
