I had an ex-daughter inn-law who was into wicca big time. Most evilest person that ever existed. Well except for maybe Allister Crowley? The beast himself.

Were you practicing while you were married to your wife? Did you turn from Christianity to Native Spirituality while married?
Are you Aboriginal?

Are you Aboriginal? No, but what has that have to do with anything?

Well if you practicing Native spirituality, you could be of first nation's back ground. Just a question.

I'm a balding Zen/Rastafarian/shaman. I draw pictures and write books about being a spiritual anarchist. In fact I am the high priest of spiritual anarchy. I have a following of one - me.

BTW: I see you are a mod now. I think you will make a great one.
