      And what, precisely, do you actually know of US?
      Nothing.
      Tell me that healing using herbal remedies is "evil."
      Tell me that soothing a colicky baby by rubbing its tummy is "evil."
      We are Nature. We heal others, and know the keys to a lot of things.

    The sad thing is that Anna's family probably shunned her already because she was lame. People were cruel back then to anyone different. Ignorance is an evil thing.

    My granny Haley told me once when I was youngen about seeing a witch when she was about 12 years old. She said the witch was standing next to a stream and there was a small tree that had fallen across the stream and that this witch turned herself into a black cat and crossed over the to the other side of the stream and then changed back into her self again and walked into the woods whistling. My granny grew up in wolf county in eastern Kentucky.

    Witches are everywhere. They don't sell their soul....well, desperate people may think they have to, but you either got the gift or you don't. I've read all the books and practiced my craft all my life. I believe I was born a witch. I did rituals to honor pagan gods and goddesses. My pantheon was Egyptian. I was a solitary practitioner, and it got very lonely. Tried out a couple of covens, and ran smack into egos. Everyone wants to be the high priest or priestess. We are only human. LOL. Living pagan was my way of life for years, and magick was all around. I am from S.E. Kentucky, but never knew another witch until I got to the bluegrass area. Blessed be y'all

      There's definitely good and bad witches and some of us are just born with the gifts it just depends on how you use it. I definitely stay away from organized groups tho churches, cults & covens are not for me & I don't trust em.

    I can't understand why anyone would trade their eternal soul, for all eternity, for a few powers for 40, 50 or 60 years. That's akin to selling a one hundred million dollar mansion for a penny. And this falls far short of the value of one's own soul!
