[Rachel Johnson]

Naughty ACE-FLO, for that you shall be flogged with nettles.

[mdhay]

Ooh, nasty.

[DISRUPTOR]

Thanks for the info Ace, now i know. Hopefully Rachel will go easy with your nettle whipping.

[ACE-FLO]

I wish I could say "I'm used to dealing with lil pricks" but that is just... ahem, gay (no offence to anyone)...

um, Rachel - since you're a good witch, will it be a bit like acupuncture?

Failing that, if it's gonna hurt - I'll give you those medical grade herbs I've got if you refrain from punishing me lol!

[DISRUPTOR]

Rachel may just put you into a wickerman and torch you if you wind her up enough:

[ACE-FLO]

lol, believe me I'm not trying to lol. I know a lil about herblore myself, it actually is a major factor in being responsible for research into natural medicine, on an international level.

Being Indian, I've gotten used to healing myself with ayurvedic medicine, and if being a witch can heal people then hey, need I say more?

Interesting fact, a spiderweb can heal a cut better than anything you can buy in a pharmacy/chemist!

[mdhay]

Interesting fact: You would have had to have tried that to have found that out.

[ACE-FLO]

True story

I was in India for 8 months when I was ten.One day, I cut myself whilst playing. It was a bad cut, blood was everywhere and I was in panic but a servant kid, led me to his mud hut house. He then took a long twig from a plant and fished out a spiderweb from a corner of the room and applied on the cut. I stopped bleeding straight away! 2 mins later he pulls the excess webbing off and my cut had sealed itself. I can still make out a very feint marking of a scar if Iook!

[DISRUPTOR]

That totally farout.

"I wish I could say "I'm used to dealing with lil pricks" but that is just... ahem, gay (no offence to anyone)..."

Actually, that is offensive to someone. Namely me. And to gays in general.

-- -----------

I had a look at Wiccan after I found that a few decades of agnosticism seemed overly featureless and lacking in liveliness, but I found it too female-centered for me. I liked Feri better. I still have some interest in the Craft, but I've always been too lazy for rituals.

Currently, as my livejournal bio says, I am sort of a Taoistic Pantheist with animistic tendencies.

[DISRUPTOR]

Sorry to be ignorant but what is a feri?

[Lance]

Feri is one of the versions of the Craft; it's not an individual or an object. Its a particular belief set and method of dealing with the universe, a way to become who you innately are underneath the previously acquired customs of your life, a way to achieve harmony within yourself and with all other things.

[Aeroracer]

like a jedi in star wars...Mmmm well be careful and do not underestimate the power of the darkside.


yoda says...."achieve harmony you must my apprentice yes."

[ACE-FLO]

Sorry Lance, was a cheap joke and I apologise.

Speaking of Jedi knights, they all look like modern day Muslims I think. And come to think of it, Muslims have the Force... almost 2 decades since Operation Desert Storm and the Stormtroopers (USA & UK forces) still haven't managed to secure Afghanistan and Iraq...

What gets me is that it is Ramadhan atm. The Iraqi and Afghan people are fasting for this month, yet western militia are still firing bullets and bombs into civilian territories! CHICKENZ!

[Lance]

War is not a respecter of rituals, not even its own. It's true nature is total destruction.

[ACE-FLO]

How very very very true!

The Art of War is an ugly art, indeed!

[Aeroracer]

war suks....

better to make love than fight.


if the politicions want a war they should do it themselves and leave everyone else alone.
