- AFAIR, there's no mention of witchiness or otherwise in the conditions, unless it's picked you up a conviction for theft or fraud along the way, in which case you've got a problem. I'd have thought that the biggest problem with witching and being a postie would be sleep deprivation from all those full moon ceremonies clashing with the 5am starts [1]

Maybe that's causing some of our worldly problems. What exactly do you teach? Nazism/witchism! Regards, BB

- Bush worships a 40' stone owl and thinks that he, G Dubya Bush, is God. Basic witch-ism. Why else could he think the military has to uphold an oath that he doesn't?

- What, did you boast to Zephyra that witchism ran in your family?

- Do what you like, where you expect happyness from, the concequences will come. All I'm trying to do is make the case that witchism isn't a way for a lot of happynessr. That is the case no more no less. Better choose wisely because the effects once entrenched can be long lasting.
