I hope that this does not cause those who are into the occult harm from those who are not. It is clear to me that the pictures of the alter are not made by an occult member but one who is mentally unstable and under the impression that the occult will help them.
I think that our prayers are needed in the situation to be of a healing nature for the victims of this tragedy. As well as the leaders who are not trying to lay blame on one escape goat and see that it was the collection of many things that attributed to the mental illness that this man obviously has.
So I raise a flame for the people who have had their world shattered due to this tragedy.
To any and all suffering from any negative thoughts from this tragedy or the circumstances around it. "Many blessing of hope, peace,and healing to you".
Katie, Drag and I will also be lighting a candle with you and be also sending our healing energy to all the families and people who had to suffer through that tragic day. May the blessings of the gods be upon them and the healing of our community be with them in their times of tragedy and sorrow..I also pray that the world will know the difference of it being someone who is mentally unstable and not the fault of the occult religion. We as People need to express our concerns and our love for them as well as to reassure them that it was the unstable mental stability of the person who committed this and not the occult community or our beliefs.
On a side note to all this, the Westboro Baptist Church- "The Church of Hate" will be protesting the funerals of those killed int he tragedy, focusing on an 8 year old little girl, whose family is catholic. May this little girl and her family be shielded from these hate mongers by the anti-protest group.

I too will send my healing energy in hope that the people involved in this will have a peaceful funeral and in time will heal from this tragedy. Why do these religious nuts protest funerals and try to blow up the world?
Candles may also be lit for those who hate you know. Ignorance is a terrible thing in this world and I will be praying for those who suffer from it on both sides of the spectrum.
