In posting this message, you are trying to impose your will, your belief,
onto us and so are showing yourself to be dishonest or deluded.
As you probably already know, the Christian religion very clearly prohibits
the pratice of witchcraft, including it among such detestable practices as
the burning of children.

The Bible states in Deutronomy 18:10-11:

Let there not be found among you anyone who immolates his son or daughter
in the fire, nor a fortune-teller, soothsayer, charmer, diviner, or caster
of spells, nor one who consults ghosts and spirits or seeks oracles from
the dead.

The Bible also warns us that in latter times, people will come to us and
try to deceive us exactly as you seem to be trying to do. In 1 Timothy
4:1-2, we are cautionned that:

1 Now the Spirit explicitly says that in the last times some will turn away
from the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and demonic
instructions through the hypocrisy of liars with branded consciences.

If you read the 10 commandments given to us, you'll see that the very first
commandments indicate that we are to worship only God and not put anything
ahead of Him. We are also not to desire for ourselves those things that
belong to others. In encouraging people to focus on the things they want,
you are putting the emphasis in the wrong place. You are focusing on God's
creation and ignoring the Creator Himself. In this way, you are disobeying
the commandments.

To refresh your memory, here are the commandments as written in Deutronomy 5:6-21:

'I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt,
that place of slavery.

You shall not have other gods besides me. You shall not carve idols for
yourselves in the shape of anything in the sky above or on the earth below
or in the waters beneath the earth;  you shall not bow down before them or
worship them. For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting
punishments for their fathers' wickedness on the children of those who hate
me, down to the third and fourth generation but bestowing mercy, down to
the thousandth generation, on the children of those who love me and keep my
commandments.

'You shall not take the name of the LORD, your God, in vain. For the
LORD will not leave unpunished him who takes his name in vain.

'Take care to keep holy the sabbath day as the LORD, your God,
commanded you. Six days you may labor and do all your work; but the seventh
day is the sabbath of the LORD, your God. No work may be done then, whether
by you, or your son or daughter, or your male or female slave, or your ox
or ass or any of your beasts, or the alien who lives with you. Your male
and female slave should rest as you do. For remember that you too were once
slaves in Egypt, and the LORD, your God, brought you from there with his
strong hand and outstretched arm. That is why the LORD, your God, has
commanded you to observe the sabbath day.

'Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD, your God, has
commanded you, that you may have a long life and prosperity in the land
which the LORD, your God, is giving you.

'You shall not kill.

'You shall not commit adultery.

'You shall not steal.

'You shall not bear dishonest witness against your neighbor.

'You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.

'You shall not desire your neighbor's house or field, nor his male or
female slave, nor his ox or ass, nor anything that belongs to him.'
