The word Ritual in the Webster’s
English dictionary is stated as this: a religious act or ceremony. Not all
rituals are good. In our society, they are acted out in so many different ways.
Through human and animal sacrifices to idols or a god. And offering yourself to
an animal to please a god is wrong. They burn incense in front of statues.
Black magic, white witches, crystals, and blood covenants are all wrong.
All of these and many others have
entrapped so many people into believing these acts will help them in the
journey through life. However, in the end, it has only gotten them a place in
Hell. We have often wondered why people search for what they want in all the
wrong ways. Why are there some that do what they do to other people? It is not
any different in this time and place than in the thousands of years before us.
