Or just laugh at them as they think there safe in their stupidity i no im rambling but im just putting down wats in my head hope it helps a little if not soz so take care mate
I really do not care what people think. I do not discuss my beliefs but if directly asked I always explain that I am pagan. If someone becomes rude with me about it I have no problems slapping someones head around backwards.
As to people exploiting others beliefs I think they are crappy people. Like the jerk holes who offer to cast a money spell for you so that you can be blessed with money. I seriously doubt they even bother with a dopey make money for a stranger spell. And whoever is foolish enough to buy such a thing is giving away exactly what they do not already have.
I believe in karma. I believe that some day a gigantic celestial foot will come out of the sky and squash such exploiters like cockroaches.
Stand up for what you believe in. Let no ones words be offensive to you. Demand respect.
Peace!
