But the BIBLE SAYS
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
I cannot go against what my Bible says.

Maybe it's a mute point, hopefully Christine's daughter will just forget about Wicca. But if it comes up again, Christine should be prepared to deal with the issue instead of trying to shut it out, which is all but impossible.
Thanks Artimaeus, that was the interpretation I was trying to give but couldn't quite get out. -
Actually, I had someone email me, and he gave me a few good sites written by ex-wicca members. It addresses the beliefs and the flaws in them.
Chlirissa is very smart and logical. I know that just demanding she stop will not change her belief in these things, it will only stop her studying them. I do think I have to approach this in a manner which will disprove it and show it for what it is.
I also grew up like diane, but It did not stop me from learning elsewhere (the preachers daughter taught me about sex). I was constantly monitored and went to a christian school, but still knew much more than I was supposed to.
I often think of a couple things that happened when my daughter was young. She never was away from me, except while I worked (at the sitter).
One day, at age 2 she put 3 cans of spam in the shopping cart and said she loved it. I had never given her spam. It made me realize that no matter how we try to shelter them, other people will always have an influence.
A second example was: in kindergarten she was playing the alphabet game, unfortunately she got the letter "N". Well needless to say she blurted out a racial remark starting with a "N". I had a terrible time explaining that I had no idea where she had heard this. What made it worse was that the teacher, principle and all but one other student, was black. I got accused of teaching hate to my child. To this day I still don't know where she heard it.
