Witchcraft and Marriage Didn’t Mix for Tom Brady
National Catholic Register ^ | August 10, 2023 | Patti Maguire Armstrong

Posted on 08/12/2023 9:02:51 AM PDT by Bogle

"So, should we connect the dots between witchcraft and divorce? We don’t know the inside story of anyone’s relationships, but we do know that God saves and the devil destroys."

I'm sure Armstrong is aware of the 50% divorce rate among all married couples and she is aware of the criticism she's going to receive about the causality of this divorce. But Armstrong goes to a great length to avoid claiming causality but using the situation as a hypothetical illustration: "God saves and the devil destroys." If nothing else, this piece is a fascinating look at what occurs within witchcraft.

The three women I’ve known who got into the ‘soft side’ of witchcraft (directing angels, healing people with prayers or ‘light work’ etc.) seem to do so in order to elevate their egos above all other persons in the room. “I’m special. I have special ‘powers’.” One told me she was studying in seminary and I was so supportive, until I realized it was ‘supernatural’ training and read a little of one of her ‘seminary books’ which featured ‘reading tattoos’.

It seems to start out small - almost fortune cookie level. Some where in there, there’s a swing from “I’m learning things that others never told me about” to “I have special power that others admire and need, whether they know it or not.”

Was never aware of Brady’s occult activity with his wife.

Yeah...this never ends well (unless it’s totally uprooted, e.g. via exorcism).

There are reasons why authentic Christianity, Judaism and Islam had traditional sex roles. You are seeing why now.

Not too sure of islamic traditional sex roles. FGM comes to mind and also honor killings.

The gossip is that she used her witchery to ruin his comeback.

“South Park” could have a lot of fun with this story.

Worse than the personal aspect is the effect that this will have on thousands of young boys.

50% of marriages end in divorce. But that counts people who have been married multiple times. The majority of marriages last a long time.

People love to hate on TB12. I am sure that a very high percentage of Freeper men would have loved to have been bewitched by Giselle.

Hmm, odd article. Hard to believe Brady was ensnared by the occult - his sister is a Christian missionary, ya' think she might have pulled him aside.

But I've seen smarter people than him fall for this stuff.

Strange, if true. That pre-game ritual with the stones and drops sounds particularly bizarre.

—I had no idea. That’s an important addendum.

And then Darren got replaced by a gay guy.

Huh, I didn’t know about the occult connection either.

homosexuality has always been a part of Islam and so has pedophilia.

The 50% number is false because it lumps the multiple divorced into the same group as the never divorced. Example. Neither my sister nor I have ever been divorced. My brother has been married four times. So is the divorce rate among me and my siblings .33% or 133%?

Except there isn't.

It is 37%.

If you are on your first marriage it is 28%.

It never has been 50%. That was a WAG that someone said would happen and somehow it became accepted as fact.
