Many of my beliefs and practices have germinated from Wiccan philosophy. Wicca is a Neo-Pagan religion (as Catholicism is a Christian religion) that honors both a God and a Goddess, celebrates the turn of the seasons and the phases of the moon and seeks to bring the practitioner in closer harmony with nature. Nowhere do Wiccans acknowledge the Devil, much less worship him.  While I don’t expect these facts to be common knowledge, I do expect someone with internet access and five minutes of time on their hands to make friends with Google and learn that no, neither Satanists nor Wiccans are particularly fond of the other group, and yes, both are sick and tired of being confused for the other. When I first researched Wicca somehow I was able to sort decent information about the religion from your basic internet idiocy, even though at the time I had little knowledge of anything but my family’s faith. This task was clearly insurmountable to Sandra Scibelli, who decided she was the expert when it came to “devil-worship.”';

I managed to wangle a chat with him on the eve of his shows at Gold Reef City\'s Lyric Theatre, and can honestly say I\'m none the wiser.  Edward is an affable guy, as audiences will know from his popular TV show Crossing Over with John Edward. He\'s young, likeable (even though he says he has to maintain a certain emotional distance from audience members to ensure an effective \"connection\" with their relatives) and can perhaps be described as the psychic equivalent of a televangelist - the rock star of the paranormal realm, if you like.';

Alan Hynek’s system of classifying people’s experiences with unidentified flying objects, and interest in the subject of UFOs appears to be reaching a crescendo.

He has to separate possible fact from fantasy and he says people who see objects are not always happy with his findings. “The reason being is we do follow a code of ethics. We’re gong tell you we try to identify.”  Easter says 95% of sightings can be explained as manmade or naturally occurring phenomena. It’s the 5% we should wonder about.';

The second skeleton, much shorter than the first and shaped a bit differently, had the most peculiarly shaped skull.
