Re: Witch Tax in Romania
At least if the government taxes and licenses witchcraft type professions then they can't be illegal ... 8)
Workmans comp if you suddenly can't turn anyone into a frog? ...I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them ... John Bernard Books
Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."
Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

Witch tax: Superstitions are no laughing matter in Romania and have been part of its culture for centuries. President Traian Basescu and his aides have been known to wear purple on certain days, supposedly to ward off evil.
I had no idea Christian Scientist journalists were so condescending...

Apparently they have a really poor sense of humour, too.
'Trouble is brewing for Romania's witches, whose toil is being taxed for the first time despite their threats of putting curses on the government. Also being taxed for the first time are fortune tellers, who probably saw this coming"The Germans do not think it in keeping with the divine majesty to confine gods within walls or to portray them in the likeness of any human countenance. Their holy places are woods and groves, and they apply the names of deities to that hidden presence which is seen only by the eye of reverence." (Tacitus, `Germania', 9)

they were nicer than the crap that spewed from kurt cameron's mouth after spying on a public ritual here and using illegally recorded audio for their slander show....
and do have to agree, despite the propaganda wording of the article, at least it's now a legal profession and has recognition as such.-=Ex Ignorantia Ad Sapientiam; E Luce Ad Tenebras=-
