  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I've recently found some books about "wicca" when I was cleaning her room. I looked through them and found they were about witchcraft and such. I also saw some other things in her room. WHen I confronted her about it, she said that that's her religion. I think witchcraft is evil and that she will go to hell if she stays that religion. How can I get her to go back to being a Christian? I've already taken all of her 'supplies'. Anything else I should do?

You need to have one of those mother-daughter talks. Tell her about her spiritual condition and maybe suggest she start going to church.

Oh yeah, give her a Bible too.

These mother-daughter talks always work between me and my mom. But I dunno about you or your daughter since I don't know you guys.

This was just a suggestion.

Edit: My mom suggests checking up on how her friends are influencing her, if she has any. If she goes to a public school, then that could be a problem. People influence each other in today's society. She could have picked up this Wicca from one of her friends, you never know unless you ask or find out for yourself. I've been homeschooled all my life and I have some nice church friends. I'm a happy kid. ^_^

I've tried talking to her. She listened but said it was her life and she wants to be wiccan. I told her that I didn't care. She's living under my roof and I don't want her doing that satan stuff. I told her she's going to go to church every Sunday and she refused. But one way or another I'll make her, hopefully. I've found some other things in her room. A wand, a few books, crystal rocks and a lot of candles and incense. What else should I do? I was gathering the stuff up in a box to take it out of her room when she came in the room. She started screaming at me. But I took the stuff away. She told me she has other stuff hidden that I won't find and she can always buy more stuff. What should I do? I'm running out of options.

I think you should source find out where did she learn about wicca. It's probably one of her so-called friends. I also think you should learn a little about wicca so when you talk to her you 1. you'll know what your talking about. 2. Don't force her to do anything she doesn't want to do, but slowly show her she is wrong, by the way when parents learn about what there kids are doing they usually don't want to do it anymore they say it's not cool anymore. 3. And most important Pray and ask GOD and his son yeshua/jesus to help you deliver her from wicked one.

i have a few suggestions. the first one is to show her that you love and support her no matter what she does. i'm not saying to let her continue with what she is doing, just be understanding. hear her out. you might not like it now, but the more she feels that she can trust you, and that you understand her, the better your relationship will be in the long run, and that's mainly what your thinking about right now, isn't it? the second one is to continually pray for her. no matter how hopeless you think the situation is never cease praying that god will take your daughter's heart and mold it into his heart, and that he would somehow help her to help others through her experience with wicca. you might have to wait a little while for her to some around, and don't make a big deal out of who was right and who was wrong, just let her handle is her way. more than likely she'll come out of this, and become stronger because of it. make sure that you have a bible on hand that you can give her, that she gets involved with a suppotive youth group, and that you NEVER stop praying for her and her decisions, even when she does some around to face god.
