Wicca and my faith in Christ
Gideons

You all know that I am a Christian. What you may not know is that I was a witch for 15 years before accepting Christ. What I mean by a "witch" is a believer in the Wiccan traditions. Wicca came over from England when the colonists did. The original witch at Salem was most likely a high priestess in her coven. A coven is a group of witches who meet for festivals. The festivals are usually celebrated in very adultlike ways that would not be appropriate to describe. The most I can say is that lots of debauchery and alcohol are used.


Wiccans or witches believe in many and all gods. the coven usually decides on one male and one female god. The one I was in worshiped Eros, the god of lust and love (male), and Aphrodite, the female goddess of lust and love. We would offer incense and other things to them and in turn, they might commune with us and give us knowledge. It was never a guarantee but I never saw it fail.


I bet you're thinking "This guy can't be a Christian." Well, I am and I'm rather firm in my faith. I pray continually and read my bible regularly. We cannot determine the condition of a man's heart, only God can. This was short but its all I have to say. see ya next week.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
