LOL, people will and do collect anything, just check ebay!!!!

I know some Ritual Collectors and they hold them very close to the vest. They have couth!

Yes, I have read some and for what it is worth, each GLO has their way of doing Rituals and that is thier business.

LXA has it's own as anyone else does.

I am a member of mine and that is the one I care about!

Oh, does anyone use candles?

Guess it proves how nosey some people are and more worried about others first.

Also shows the minds of some people who worry about people to much!

Thats the difference,Tom. I would say a vast majority of collectors collect for the beauty and appreciation of the ritual and the historical significance of the material, not just for spite.

You just said a mouthful.

It is just like appreciation of any art and is what it is!

I and others are proud of theirs as well they should be!

Oh, Mine is The Best!

I'm not being accusatory, but it's still troublesome, isn't it?

It's not that the secrecy gives the ritual it's value, but it does contribute to the uniqueness of your experience. It's the level of the organization that unites you as a group and excludes others.

I agree with you for the most part. But, I do agree that I can live with the idea of someone reviewing rituals for historical reasons and being a person who handles the information with a reasonable level of respect. Versus a person who wants to obtain ritual to blab it everywhere, criticize it, try to spite or harm an organization, try to be a "perp," etc. If someone outside my organization were going to be aware of my ritual, I'd rather have it be one of the legitimate respectful collectors. (Though I'd still rather have it be no one outside my organization at all!)
