Usually when I try to log back in the MB tells me my name is already registered to someone else. Today it let me back on....go figure! I never log out either, but the MB is not that well moderated any way.

Lasher caused the fall because he knew about the affairs and thought he was "helping Deborah." At that time he was a very new spirit or entity brought about by Suzanne. It is said later on that he develops and gains knowledge with time, just as we do. I think may be he was just naive as to the consequences of his actions. That's my opinion of it right now, anyway. But great question.

I'm wondering if we will ever know if Pyter is Charlotte's Father. I mean there were no DNA tests back then so I guess we have to draw our own conclusions but I think he is.

Me too! Petyr's feelings toward Deborah when she was so young and the detailed description of the horrible burnings of the witches.

.....I also have to say as a Christian, revisiting the Witch burnings, corruption, and abuse of power by these Churches disturbs me in a huge way. To think that these people used religion for their own gain is so sickening!

hate to bring my beliefs into the subject but I am also not Catholic just to put that out there.
..................
okay just read a little on Anne's return to the Catholic Church. On Wikipedia it says that she returned to the Church in 1998 after being in a coma and nearly dying from Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 also........
Her return did not come with a full embrace of the Church's stances on social issues; Rice remains a vocal supporter of equality for gay men and lesbians (including marriage rights), as well as abortion rights and birth control.[44] Rice has written extensively on these matters. In October, 2005, while promoting her book, Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt, she announced in Newsweek that she would now use her life and talent of writing to glorify her belief in God, but did not renounce her earlier works.
also from wiki
I didn't realize it would let me copy and paste till now so let me add to that her return to the church description.....
Rice returned to the Catholic Church in 1998 after decades of describing herself as an "atheist." On December 14, 1998, Rice went into a coma, nearly dying, and was diagnosed with Diabetes mellitus type 1.[38][39] Rice is a brittle diabetic and insulin-dependent.[40] In 2003, following the recommendation of her husband and shortly after his death, Rice underwent gastric bypass surgery and shed 103 pounds.[41][42]

On July 29, 2010, Rice publicly renounced her dedication to her Roman Catholic faith, while remaining committed to Christ, on her Facebook page:
"For those who care, and I understand if you don’t: Today I quit being a Christian. I’m out. I remain committed to Christ as always but not to being “Christian” or to being part of Christianity. It’s simply impossible for me to “belong” to this quarrelsome, hostile, disputatious, and deservedly infamous group. For ten years, I’ve tried. I’ve failed. I’m an outsider. My conscience will allow nothing else."[61]
there is a lot more but this gives the basics
..................
and I also agree with her reasons for leaving the Catholic Church
