Let me explain something here, just so we're clear.

Witnessing a "full" ritual posession, is kind of like sex.

It's like sex in the sense that if you haven't actually done it, and you try to talk about it, everyone who really has, knows you're full of shit. Yes, even if they are too polite to say anything.We now return to your regularly

Heh...yeah.

But don't you know they are all 'oathbound', that is why they cannot talk about it. *grin*

[maai]

pfffft! *falls out of chair*

Oathbound

[walkingbear]

Only by way of the oaths and other deprecations us polite folk are too nice to utter aloud. :)

[niankhsekhmet]

I really wish that people would just own up that there is a different between a full possession, and one where your own ego is in there, too. I guess my question is, ok, we aren't asking for specifics. Why can't you just simply say what criteria you use in order to "test the spirits". Even the Christians seem to "get" that one.

[pointycat]

So, uh, do I even want to know what this is in reference to? On one hand I'm deeply curious, on the other hand I know I'm just going to end up facepalming over it.

[djebatihethert]

I second this. I love hearing about the 'tards who frequent the internet. Lay it on us! ;)

[maai]

We'll talk. ;)

[weshebutamun]

third :P

[sesha]

Also when you have done it, you can't really adequately talk about it in a way that anyone who hasn't is going to get it. The "it's like warm apple pie" syndrome, heh.

[bellacrow]

*nods* it's why all we all love to talk shop with other trance folks.

[weshebutamun]

if you haven't actually done it, and you try to talk about it, everyone who really has, knows your full of shit.

Or, if you are me, everyone thinks you are full of shit anyway :P

[mawyemsekhmet]

Do tell? Curious minds want to know.
