Students taught to write hexes cursing those who say "all lives matter."

[Pb]

Imagine, if you will, a world where the Left is controlled by demonic forces... and ask yourself, what would they be doing differently than they are right now?

Here is a "writing prompt" published by Campbell Union High School that is clearly not inspired by Satan:

"Hexing people is an important way to get out anger and frustration. Make a list of specific people who
have been agents of police terror or global brutality. This list can be wide-ranging, from small micro
aggressions to larger perpetrators (i.e., people who say “all lives matter” to the police officers who
arrest non violent protestors to George Zimmerman). Pick one of those people on your list. Read
Martin Espada’s poem “For the Jim Crow Restaurant in Cambridge Massachusetts Where My Cousin
Esteban was Forbidden To Wait Tables Because He Wears Dreadlocks.” Write your own hex poem,
cursing that person."

British and Irish occultists claim that their concentrated nationwide mental efforts put enough impediments in Hitler's extensive plan to invade Britain that his "Operation Sealion"* was postponed indefinitely.

I'm just reporting this FWIW and its relevance to the OP, not claiming its validity.

Here is a mundane version of the events leading up to the postponement / cancellation:

It's a fairly short article.

* The code name for the invasion.

Don't forget video games, rock and roll, and school dances.   That satan guy is sliding in all the places. 

FTR, that poem is not a Hex, it's a spleen venting. 

If they were actually demonic, I'd expect more blood magic and circles but maybe they are just being sneaky.

I've read that there's a pagan/occultic background to certain BLM practices.  So, true to their roots.

Has anyone actually used this, or is this an "academic exercise"?

Yeah, no.  They're Christians.  You guys keep them.

Hexing people is an important way to get out anger and frustration.

IMO, indulging in hatred and revenge doesn't get out anger and frustration, it just reinforces it.  It just makes you more likely to get angry and frustrated in the future.  I guess I have seen that general idea in other areas.

From the linked source document in the OP it's not really clear what the origin is, but I suspect it was created by some wacky racist group of POCs.

Had this been presented at my old high school, students would have had a lot of fun with parts of it - probably the most popular "CHANT" would have been "Let's Go Brandon!"

[griz]

So that guy who wrote "love thy neighbor" 2000 years ago was doing it wrong?

[Perd Hapley]

Yeah, no.  They're Christians.  You guys keep them.

False

[dogmush]

False

I said False first.  You guys are stuck with them.

[Pb]

Yeah, no.  They're Christians.  You guys keep them.

Using witchcraft against people you don't like is Christian? 

I must be doing it wrong.

[dogmush]

Clearly.

Although I would ask what part of this discussion or the referenced poem is Witchcraft,  but Christians are historically really, really bad at identifying Witchcraft, so it's probably moot.

Institutional evil, occult practices and ideas, anti-Christ churches and ideologies is all like water is to the fish. It's so pervasive folks no longer see it, it's the air we breath.

Those who do notice and point it out are mocked and scorned.

I hex the wackos on both sides, may they be infested with the crabs of a thousand prostitutes.

Or.......and bear with me here.... People that actually practice Paganism, and know actual witches, don't appreciate it when bad actors that *aren't* practicing those religions are lumped in with them by folks that don't know what they are talking about.  It's annoying.

Hint:  If at any time the behavior you are talking about references Satan, those people are Christians, because Satan is a Christian figure.  They may not be *good* Christians, but they have bought into that ideology.

Certainly I agree there are differences and categories. The category of the occult that practices the inversion of Christianity is a different category than ancient pagans, (neo)druidism and other occult practices that don't reference Christianity. It's overtly antiChrist in it's purpose.

I'm a fan of ancient mythology, fantasy and fairy tales. They often contain truth and maybe even could be described as revelations from God in some instances (see below in sig lines).

We understand the world through symbols, images and imagination. The human world is awash in symbology and much in the modern media is of occult origins. Not just the overtly antiChrist occult but all categories.

Of course, I've come to accept that the Lord Jesus and His gospel (see website link to left under profile pic) is the ultimate revelation of truth to all humankind.

I didn't read the poem referred to, but hex is, by definition, witchcraft.

This is not true.  A person may believe a deity exists, without worshipping or obeying the deity. 

[dogmush]

Certainly, which is why I said they are bad Christians. But I'd you believe in the diety, then you have accepted the ideology, even if only to refute it.

I did bother to read the poem, and as I said, it's not a hex.

I agree they aren't Christians, they have declared themselves as antiChrist. Calling them Christian is an error, or is a slander if done in malice.


The Oxford Dictionary (and common sense) disagree with you dogmush.

Christian

a person who follows or belongs to a religion based on the worship of one God and the teachings of Jesus Christ as described in the Bible:

Christians are just bad Satanists?

[dogmush]

Christians are just bad Satanists?

Nah, because Christianity was a thing first.  Satanism is an explicit rejection of Christ's teachings for his church.  So kinda ipso facto, if they believe that Christ and Satan are real they believe in the reality of the Christian mythology.  They just chose to reject one's teachings and embrace another's. 


I dunno, maybe you are all just bad Jews.
