I found this interesting article about former witch and below it was some emails from other former witches.
Here is part of what one Sister in Christ (today I believe) wrote:
quote:

Dear Ones,

I just quite "by accident" found your website, and read the testimony of a "former witch". All I can say, is "wow". I too, am a former witch. During the reading, I found myself nodding emphatically and almost broke down in tears! I just would like to add that, Satan is real. I became involved in witchcraft when I was 10 years old. My mother bought me a "cute little" book on witchcraft and spells. Seemed innocent enough (at the time). But that's how it starts. My parents were both loving and understanding. I wasn't forced to go to church, but rather to explore and be a free spirit. I too, thought I was somehow "special" and "set apart" from all those "foolish christians". I mocked them and blasphemed them. Yes, the power is great, and immediate. It starts out all so innocently, and almost "playful". Whenever I felt empty, (which was all the time), I would buy a new tarot deck, or new crystal. Or maybe some new goddess statue. I would feel that instant gratification, but then, it would fade.

Several times I would go to church, feel good for a short time, then go right back to goddess/wicca/new age things. Only with even more of a vengence. And, for a short time, after feeling that "rush of power", which I now believe to be Satan, it would wear off as well. Still the emptiness remained. I have had two abortions. I too, was a vegetarian. How interesting as the testimony stated, "To cherish animals, by being a vegetarian, but to kill a child?" (Paraphrasing). Point is, how ironic!

I am beginning my search, and trying to follow the path of Jesus. About a year and a half ago, someone I didn't even know, asked me if I'd like to have a relationship with Jesus...


(rest of the article)

It all started from a "cute little" book on witchcraft which her mom bought!
Now I just thought that it's good to think a while how easily one can be lured to Satan's lair. I once even read about one Christian who had begun to move objects by the "force of his mind". Fortunately he said he would stop practicing that. And today you can watch witch movies and TV series no matter what age you are because, of course no one understands the reality behind this "cool" word witch wich is a trend.
It's not that bad as long as people don't consider witchcraft bossible and never try it, but when people get the idea of doing some witchcraft then Satan is going to get them. And if you take a look around you can see people openly admitting that they practice witchcraft or something similar and you might be even able read article about wicca from some magizine.

I hope you all knew that already but I just wanted to say that it's important realize the weight of this Satanism called witchcraft before doing games where you play as a witch.


Don't you think?


In Christ,
Jari.
