When I told her that I would've called a priest if I thought there was spiritual activity in my home, she claimed that this woman doesn't communicate with evil spirits - just poor souls who got confused or had reasons that they couldn't go over to the other side. Yikes!  Obviously my godmother is/was Catholic - she's my godmother. However, she's drifting into spiritualism.  She even said that her sister put some seed over every doorway, to keep any more spirits from entering. Can you give me some resources that I can use when talking to my godmother?"

I started making them but with normal things and using clothing that was given to me just to be able to make dolls for kids. Yes I freely give them to any child that wants one. It is a joy to see a little child smile. Ok I don't go along with any of their beliefs as I later found out about them. Is it ok that I make these dolls for children? To me it's a gift from God because he made me able to make them and I make sure to say that they are a gift from God. I am starting to wonder now."

D writes: "My sister went through a very hurtful divorce and turned to an angel reader for help. I went with her to a day of healing and can see where you can get drawn in. She named my angel, knew things about me that had caused pain, performed a healing treatment and gave us all an angel card and stone. . . .
