4. Do you know that the Wiccan beliefs did more to assuage my
desire for revenge than my Christian beliefs? It's true. First, Christianity use to be very effective in teaching a person to turn the other cheek. But lately, Christianity has taken hijacked, and now it has become a vengeance-seeking religion. You saw it in the Mel Gibson movie when Jesus's closing shot was anything but forgiving and you see it as our Evangelical-influenced president seeks affirmation from his religious base with each bomb that gets dropped in the Middle East.

But I visited the Salem Witch Museum and one thing stood out. The Wiccan's believe that anything you wish upon someone else, comes back to you three times fold. It's like getting a cold bucket of ice water thrown on you. So, that's how the Wiccan religion reminded me that the old way of practicing Christianity, is still the right way.
