Now, I know that most groups were founded with a Christian or Jewish background and have moved away from that so membership is all-inclusive, but I was wondering if religion had ever been an issue for anyone's chapter with regards to an active or a PNM.
One of our sisters was an acknowledged Christian witch. She'd been having some problems with the group as a whole since rumors flew and angry words were exchanged and never retracted. In the end, she deactivated because she felt isolated -which is SO wrong to have in a sisterhood.
Anyway, to my point: At the height of the tension in the house, our president and house mom were having awful nightmares, and the president and VP were both having bad reactions to new hair products. Their conclusion? That the resident witch hexed them.
Besides the fact that this is totally against the rules of karma (any self-respecting witch would avoid a karmic butt-bite) and against Christian ideals, this stupid theory ignored the fact that despite all the problems, the accused loved the girls very much and talked about how they all swooped in on her one day and took her in.
It just really, really angered me, especially since they told my friend who had just signed a COB bid. I wanted her to have a better impression of the group than that close-minded paranoia. *sigh*
I just wanted to know if anyone has ever dealt with a similar situation, (PLEASE tell me if you have -I need some reassurance in that my sisters are not the only silly children in the world) and how you dealt with it. I'm pagan, but I'm not so sure I want to come out to my sisters, seeing the way their minds work when angry.
