Thanks DMB and Brigid. Perhaps I should add another power to Wicked Wanda? "Gives men a severe case of feminine itching with a twitch of her nose."?

Perhaps I should start a Wicked Wanda thread. My Heroine!!! <img src="graemlins/notworthy.gif" border="0" alt="[Not Worthy]" />

Okay Amos, now you have really begun to worry me. Is it just me (and the inability for my twain mind to meet ) or is everyone else having a problem understanding the jibberish that Amos is spewing!? Goodness. Perhaps it's the incense that is messing with you, but honestly ... seek some medical help. You are delusional.

Somebody call this man a doctor!

Now you are finding the Lord's truth in Shakespeare's plays?

Note that the witches in Macbeth were not who were "from their mothers womb untimely ripped."

In any case, Shakespeare was writing a story for Christ's sake, you are going to take what he says about them to be true? </strong>
No, but MacBeth was the witch who "wanted to be King herafter." Lady MacBeth hath no name but Lady MacBeth and was the witch who pulled the strings in the life of Macbeth. Macbeth is a Senecan Tragedy forshadowed by the witches (to be juxtaposed with Coriolanus).

MacBeth is a satire against the Church of England written in a time when that was illegal and if any one of its members would have discovered the theme of the play they would have executed him for doing so. The point made by the play is that no protestant will ever get to heaven and this is evident by the fact that Shakespeare survived the play. In other words, while they were enjoying the play in its debut they were actually wallowing in their own mire.

"Never the twain shall meet!"

I suppose if Amos has had a convergence of the twain mind then I want NOTHING of that experience! Whhhhhhewwwwwwww ... thank the random evolutionary process and the meeting of one of the billions of my fathers sperm with one of my mothers ovum that I was born female! Praise Darwin!

When we talk about witches you think of "Wicked Wanda's" and when we talk about God you think of a "Sky Papa." Based on these preconceived notions you have you decided not to believe and that is very courageous of you but does not mean that there is no God and that there are no witches. It only means that you were wrong about them.

If I point out to you what real witches are and how we can detect them you call me delusional while you forget that whatever exists in the magination must exist in reality as well.

You have a Witch Detector?
What about a Sorting Hat?

Amos never is part of the argument and Darwin nor God had anything to do with you becoming the female you are. Randomness proves oblivion and if anything praise your mother's positive stand that attracted the negative sperm.

You mean to sort witches or people?

Oh Amos,

When you, or any one else can provide more then anecdotal proof of either the existence of your particular God or of witches then you and I (and rest of the rational world) can have a conversation. Until then, your positive claim requires positive proof, extraordinary proof at that.

I don't believe in God and I refer to your deity as a SkyPapa because that is how he is described in his holy book. Therefore, I do not have preconceived notions about that which I have no evidence of it's existence. Just as I don't have a single shred of evidence that the withces, as you describe them do or ever have existed outside the delusional imaginations of men who are obsessed with their penis' and their power.
