Not that there's anything wrong with that... [View all]
I posted this as reply #8 to the General Discussion post: Vance to Appear with 'Prophet' Who Says Harris Is a Witch
Harris is Baptist, but what if she were practicing witchcraft, so what? The military may now acknowledge Wiccan service members who have given their lives with the pentacle symbol on their grave markers. So, respect for veterans, please, Mr. Vance. "Practicing witchcraft" in this "prophet's" context implies practicing evil. However, some Wiccans and other pagans hold with the Three Fold Rule, which is that any energy you send out, positive or negative, returns three-fold. Those holding that belief are unlikely to wish political rivals harm! Instead, they would most likely hope, pray, and vote positive energy to protect women, people of color, Haitians, LBTQ+, immigrants, the childless, the poor, pagans, and the world from the cruelty, harm, bigotry, and deceit perpetrated by Vance, Trump, and their ilk. Could some people of faith, any faith, wish, pray, or cast spells to do harm? Well, sure, but all know that voting is the most efficacious way to mop up Repugs. (Please know I am trying to be respectful and I am not trying to speak for all witches or pagans or people of faith.)
