Philosophy, like witchcraft, has been feared and suppressed over the centuries for no good reason.    Philosophy asks questions about the mysteries of life it cannot answer, and explores a great unknown it ultimately can never understand.         That is what makes philosophy superior to science and religion. Not-knowing is zen. Look at what it can do for you:    Perhaps man without woman is only half of a man; and woman without a man, half a woman.         Witchcraft is a woman's field of expertise, but many mystics and philosophers were men, and it is unwise to ignore their discoveries:      Consider, for example, a hundred billion stars in our galaxy, and a hundred billion galaxies in our galactic universe... a realization from astronomy --one of the many sciences cultured until recently, primarily by men.      Contemplate that realization, and you just might begin becoming starwise and seek to enter into the vastness of the Great Unknown . . . eager to learn more...         Read Pygmalion -- George Bernard Shaw 1913 Fantasy. Things are not as they appear. Things may be very different from what they appear to be. Things may be the opposite of what they appear to be. -Mama Bear Witchcraft Secrets are explored both skeptically and appreciatively, as convincing possibilities.   Philosophy. Our private, personal, philosophical approach to the Great Unknown is just right. --Baby Bear Science. Scientific knowledge is best, but by itself far too limited to directly-experienced-facts to ever reveal ultimate secrets of life and the beyond. --Papa Bear "Every man and woman is a star..." --Aleister Crowley                                            Elizabeth Montgomery --"Bewitched"           Three wishes: Read "The Monkey's Paw".         After reading The Monkey's Paw, you understand the admonition: "Be careful of what you wish for. It may come true." Here is a happier way to use three magical wishes:     Three Wishes: Part One Three Wishes: Part Two Three Wishes: Part Three
