Spiritually
I am still a very spiritual person; I do practice wiccan. In my religion God is the omnipotent one, to be revered as such. My past experiences in life have brought me heart ache and pain. I have lost both of my parents to cancer. Although, I am an LPN, when I performed hospice care for my father two years ago, I not only gave him the medication to help his final transition to the next plain. In wiccan religion you respect all that is living, and be thankful for the time you have spent in this world. Just like Christianity nothing comes without working for it, God is worshiped in all religions

Two Dominican monks, Kramer and Sprenger, claimed that women were naturally corrupted and evil, and that they were sexual beings, which supposedly led to the…
