It's starts out by saying > you need to repeat the lord's prayer 3 times three nights in a row to start > becoming a witch/warlock should I believe this? > Note that you have to recite it backwards (though Huson provides a phonetic spelling of it in reverse) This was a traditional means of obtaining witch power in Appalachian folklore, but their witches are closer to the ones on TV - different race, longer lived, etc, like on Bewitched or Sabrina. Huson presents the ritual as a formal renunciation of the fetters of traditions and taboo imposed by Christianity. It can be omitted. Paul
