(Feb. 3) — Prosecutors in Everett, Wash., say a Gold Bar man murdered his former girlfriend last month because she broke a “Wiccan blood oath” to break off a relationship with another man. Representatives of the Wiccan community have reacted strongly to what they say is a misguided rationalization for the slaying involving practices that are not condoned by the religion. Harlan was reported missing Jan. 5 when she failed to show for work. When police questioned her friends, they said they were concerned for her safety because she had recently told them she was worried that Christensen would “beat her to a bloody pulp” if she broke up with him, police said. While it was clear something terrible had happened inside Harlan’s apartment, police did not have a body, and both she and her vehicle were missing. In an effort to get Christensen off the streets while they continued their investigation, police took him into custody for failing to register as a sex offender. Prosecutors say he had a 1990 conviction in Oregon for first-degree sexual abuse. “Christensen has a well-documented criminal history of offending against former girlfriends,” Matheson said. “He served jail time in the mid-’90s for taking a rifle shot at an ex-girlfriend he claimed had been cheating on him.” The shooting incident Matheson refers to occurred in 1994, when Christensen stood at a Seattle bus stop and shot at a former girlfriend and her friend. Christensen missed, and the two escaped without injury …

The Lord’s words in the presence of the bride concerning his own majesty, and a wonderful parable comparing Christ to David, while Jews, bad Christians, and pagans are compared to David’s three sons, and about how the church subsists in the seven sacraments. Book 2 – Chapter 5 SAINT BRIDGET PATRON SAINT OF EUROPE FINAL PART No kind of adultery is worse than selling oneself into prostitution away from God and from the true faith and believing in a god other than the Creator of universe. Just as Bathsheba did, some of the Gentiles come to me with humble and contrite hearts, saying: ‘Lord, you promised that in the future we would be Christians. Carry out your promise! If another king, if another faith other than yours should gain the ascendancy over us, if you remove yourself from us, we will burn in misery and die like an adulteress who has taken an adulterer instead of a lawful husband. Besides, although you live forever, nevertheless, you will die to us and we to you in the sense that you will remove your grace from our hearts and we will set ourselves up against you due to our lack of faith. Therefore, fulfill your promise and strengthen our weakness and enlighten our darkness! If you delay, if you remove yourself from us, we will perish.’ Having heard this, I will stand up like David through my grace and mercy. I swear by my divine nature, which is joined to my humanity, and by my human nature, which is in my Spirit, and by my Spirit, which is in my divine and human …
UPDATE: On June 4th, Eric Christensen was found guilty of first-degree murder. He’s in for at least 45 years. Final sentencing is next week.
Eric Christensen was talkng complete tripe about “Wiccan blood oaths”, and I say that because I knew Eric over several years. He’d been around Wicca long enough to have absorbed the precepts behind the spirituality; tragically, some of the most essential teachings never seemed to sink in with him. Sherry Harlan was a thoroughly nice lady, and deserved so much more than a brutal end at Eric’s hands. Be at peace in the Summerland, hon—we all miss you so much.
if the guy is gonna lie about something this big, you would think he would do at least a little research on the subject (to find that karma is a pretty big deal, you know), but nope…such a shame, there are enough stereotypes already
