Do you believe in Witches and curses

Do you believe in Witches and curses
I am starting to believe in Witches and curses, I think I was cursed in the old country when I was one year old and my life has been one big disaster after another, to give you an example if there was 1000 items on a table and only one was faulty I would pick that one It happens all the time
Ps pardon my spelling

Do I believe in witches. It's not a case of belief, I know quite a few witches

In so far as curses go, they only work where the person being "cursed" has an ingrained belief in them having the ability to work. It's a case of the "self fulfilling prophecy". If you believe that they can have an effect, then they will.

You bet I believe in whitches if you are really asking are they a reality... I personally know one and she is a curse for sure.

AND she curses me every opportunity ...white male, paper pusher, lawyer, playboy, heartless, selfish, ruthless ....yak yak yak ... and we are not a couple or ever were for goodness sake... I have never seen anything like it and I have seen heaps believe me... if not a whitch then the devil herself..(the devil must be female dont you think). no one has any idea... no one would believe stuff I could tell you... Sent here to remind me that life up to now was perfect and that hell can be home delivered...

Did you know...that I wont follow...what does that mean... I did not know I was to follow anything....

Still it could have been worse if I had not been nursing the hernia opperation which gave me time to think I would be damed now... I mean there was never anything there so why am I getting this crap... sorry but thanks for an opportunity to vent.

You could make money out of this. Advertise so ...

I firmly believe that some people are lucky, some are unlucky, and some have average luck (the majority of the population). Some people are deemed unlucky (they are called Jonahs).

Many in the western world just believe in themselves and what they can see, and everything else is nonsense to them.

Go into the highlands of New Guinea and ask them this question and the scales will be tipped in the other extreme.

Do I believe in both Witches and Curses???

Yes, absolutely! They are both real and there is evidence to support their existence.

For all those who deny the existence of either, you are fooling yourself and are devoid of sound logic.

Now whether those whom are refered to, or have labeled themselves as Witches, or whether Spells and Curses actually have any real net affect, is a totally seperate issue.

Nonetheless, in answering the literal question, yes, both have and do exist.

Have you heard of "The Law of Attraction", Varclav?

It's general premise is that you attract into your life whatever you think, or focus on, whether consciously or unconciously.

If you think you are cursed, if you think your life is one disaster after another, if you think you will only pick duds, then that is all you can reasonably expect.

If you want Varclav, I can send you a brand new, shrinkwrapped, 2-CD Set of "The Secret", by Rhonda Byrne. It will teach you how to change your mindset so you can expect and attract positive things into your life. I normally sell it for $20, but I'll send it to you free of charge. I'll pay for postage too.

Just send me a PM if you are interested.

No. Neither. At least not as active functioning, entities.
Barron: I'm looking at a new car next year. Care to come along?
Xelasnave: I know what its like to be stalked by some crazy mad *itch with whom you have nothing in common and no attraction. As I said earlier, PM me! I have all sorts of polittically incorrect ways to remedy the situation !
