Im 15/f. At the moment I'm a Christian, but I'm considering becoming a solitary witch. I've got some questions I'd like to know the answers to from people who actually practise witchcraft and aren't just writing a book
1) Do I need to start praying to the God straight
away?
2) Do I definetely need a separate altar, goddess
shrine, god shrine and lunar shrine because I
only have a small room
3) Does being a witch cost a lot of money?
I'm too young to get a job so I don't have
much money
Don't get me wrong, I really want to become a witch. It's just that the books I'm reading just aren't answering all my questions as they are written by older women dedicated to the craft completely, not a young beginner. Any sources of information or tips on becoming and being a solitary witch are also welcome.
Thanx to the moon and back xxx
I'll tell you one thing. If you become a witch, then you were NEVER a Christian. Opinion? Just stating the facts.

Hi, Advicenators. Normally I make up my own mind, but I need a little help. If you're going to be sarcastic or rude, don't bother.
Gender: female
Grade: Eighth
I have a problem with my Sunday School teacher. You see, I honestly believe that I have more Biblical knowledge than her. I know that sounds conceited.. but it just seems like it! Yesterday (Easter Sunday) our "lesson" was on miracles. This is what the conversation was like:
Teacher:Who can preform miracles?
Teacher:Only Jesus can preform miracles! No one else can!
Me:*raises hand*
Teacher:yes?
Me:But Jesus isn't the only one who can preform miracles.. Paul, Elija, Elisha, the Devil, the Twelve Disciples.. they all preformed miracles..
Teacher:No, no, no. That's not what I said..
Me:You said "Only Jesus can preform miracles".
Teacher:Anyway, girls, as you see.. blah, blah, blah.
At this time, I'm feeling pretty screwed over since she just blew me off. All of that conversation is an exact quote. This was the third time that I was able to correct her (and the third time I got blown off) yesterday alone! It happens every Sunday.. she doesn't know the lesson, she doesn't know what she's talking about.. It makes me mad!
I know that I am much, much more mature Spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and in my knowledge of the Bible and Christ.. (not trying to sound conceited..) but the lessons are never fufilling! I could gather more from my eight-year old sister's Sunday School lesson. Get this: I was the only girl in my class of seventh and eighth grade girls that knew what the Rapture was! Oh my gosh! How dumb?!
So, I was considering talking to my youth pastor about this. I'm naturally shy, and I don't like to put myself in that position.. but this is so annoying.. and a waste of my Sunday morning! So.. do you think I should speak to my youth pastor about this?
PS - I don't really get along with my teacher, I'm nice to her... but we don't get along. :\
PPS - Sorry it's so long! Thanks in advance..
You really need to talk to your youth pastor and maybe even your pastor. Write letters and make some phone calls.
This Sunday school teacher is pathetic; it's pretty obvious what the problem is. I know of people like this in my "former" church. You just need to make your voice heard. See if anyone else has the same opinion. Or you could go to someone else's class if it's that much of a problem. Pretty bad when you think your Sunday morning is wasted. Apparently talking to the teacher isn't going to help you since she doesn't listen to you as it is, so you need to take it to someone in higher authority, as you have already deducted.
Is your teacher even genuinely saved? Pray hard.

Alright yall, i believe in God and that Jesus is the son of God. But i dont like church one bit, and i dont like the bible. I think i'm a good person, but i do also sin (obviously). And i have a wonderful relationship with God. So am i going to hell because i dont like church, and because i dont believe alot of what the Christians believe? Please help me out if you can. Thanks alot.
No, you don't go to Hell if you don't like church. Not like the Bible? That kindof contridicts Christianity...I need to know what you mean when you say "i don't believe alot of what the Christians believe". I could help you a little more if you told me.

your advice is good, but i already did that ( i have know her for 10 years) i pray for her regurally, but most of the time she dodges. i am not a very.....bold person, but i like to be straightforward. i try to engage in Biblical conversations, but shes uninterested. i dont want tomorrow to be her last day, and not have made the choice...
I i dont know if this helps you any...but ask her when she became a Christian, and ask her how she beleives she became a Christian. Keep praying.
Ask her where she believes she is going when she dies, and why. Read 1 Timothy 4.

i have this friend, and she SAYS that she is a Christian, but there is a nagging doubt in me that says, "NO WAY!" i really care about this girl - i have known her for 10 years, i really want the best from her, how can i help her, or be sure that she is following the right path when she doesnt go to church, doesnt own a Bible, and both parents hate God?
I think that you should talk to her about this.
Ask her what she believes as far as Jesus' life and resurrection; and just ask her if she is a Christian, you know that she says she is, but it might cause her to question whether her salvation is genuine or superficial. Be nice about it though.

I'm an athiest, but i don't try to force people to believe what I believe. I don't challenge other people's beliefs. I've had this one guy bother me for 5 years about being an athiest. (I go to a PK-12 school distict). He's always asking me why I'm not religious, why I don't believe in God, etc, ect, and so on. i've done everything I can think of, including inflicting bodily harm on him (well - I dropped a book on his head. But I don't even think that hurt him) but he won't stop. how do I stop him?
*clears throat*
I SAY AGAIN
How do you know that there isn't heaven or hell or God or Satan? Do you have infinite knowledge? Well feel special if you do, cause I don't. And why would they (who is they?) want us to act like better people eh? How would we know the difference between right and wrong? If there is no God, then what is our purpose in life? Do we live purposeless lives?

I dont believe in God, or Satan, or heaven and hell. I think its just a story told to us to try and make us act like better people. Please comment.

hey can someone please explain this verse to me: Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31:30 i mean i dont get the last part why are we supposed to fear the Lord? thanks
Basically what this passage is saying is that looks arent everything. When he says "fear the Lord" he means to respect him.
