I am one myself. Ha. We aren’t that bad. Some of us use black magic yes, but for the most part, we are harmless. I have always been attracted to Wicca and everything supernatural. I actually just combined Judaism with Wicca. 😀 You see, my dad was a Jew born in NYC, but seeing as I don’t speak to my mother. I took my dad’s religion, and tweaked it to suit me. 😀 Fun!!!
