In my teenage years I also dabbled in the occult. I read books and subscribed to catalogs on witchcraft and voodoo. Like Christine O’Donnell I never joined any formal group associated with those beliefs.
Anyone who thinks such beliefs have not been actively promoted in this country is ignorant. I am not saying there is a “conspiracy” because most of this advocacy is quite blatant. There are websites, books, magazines, organizations, and conventions which promote occult beliefs and practices. Wicca, in particular, is lionized by feminists as a way for girls to “empower” themselves.
I’m not exactly sure why people think this video should disqualify Christine O’Donnell from elective office.
Is it because witchcraft is so evil (even though O’Donnell has repented of her involvement)?
Is it because anyone who has ever been involved in withcraft (even a brief association at a young age) is necessarily a lunatic? (There are many people involved in various aspects of the occult who are far from crazy.)
Honestly, if I had lived in Delaware I probably would have held my nose and voted for Castle for the strategic reason that a certain win for a Republican who votes conservative 50% of the time is better than a longshot candidate who will probably lose in a liberal state.
Nonetheless, all of this dumping on O’Donnell by the liberals and the RINO establishment is actually making me like her more. She may not be the strongest candidate, but she seems like a woman of sincere conviction. I usually don’t contribute to candidates who don’t have a good chance of winning, but I am considering giving money to O’Donnell just to flip the bird to the slimy liberal establishment.
I'm telling Bill Maher on you.
