Perhaps TI is referring to the line "I'm not gonna die for you", or: "We're not gonna die for you, We're not seeking vengeance, But we're not gonna kill ourselves for your convenience." Maybe, or perhaps it's addressed to those who would wish her (and those with whom she identifies) dead. Now.. will the people who pride themselves on being rational please tell me they don't believe someone who practices Wicca or witchcraft, whatever... have "special" powers? Or should we bring back the kindling and long burning logs?

There's black magic, which is bad, and there's things like wicca that aren't bad.

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." -- Arthur C. Clarke Depends on your frame of reference. A Coke bottle is an object of wonder, then somethng to be reviled for the greed and envy it introduces to a people that were unaware of these emotions previously. OK, a work of fiction, but what is the lesson here? Without a "back story", (easily explained by those "in the know", and in this case anyone in the western world) the people feel they must fabricate something to fill in the missing information.

That's about right. I know people who have had direct experience with both kinds of magic. I try to steer clear of that stuff. I personally don't believe in using magic. Things can happen that you don't anticipate, and it frightens me.

Is hypnotism "magic," or "technology"?

I think that it might just be a combination of "both". It's not so much technology as "science".

This "Yoko is responsible" theory is the most ridiculous example of scapegoating ever. Yoko, the remaining Beatles and all of their doubles are one big happy family. Yoko was chosen by the Beatles' Tavistock/MI5/MI6 masters to babysit John Lennon's double and to keep him out of trouble. Notice I said John's double, not the real John Lennon himself.
I think there may have been a falling-out between Yoko and Faul, two very strong personalities and so Yoko and her charge were sent packing to New York City.

On one level The Beatles are re-telling Old Testament history in story and song. The 1st years up till 1966 they are in the Garden of Eden-everything is hunky-dory,lol.Then the serpent shows up(Faul). John is Adam. Yoko is Eve leading John on the road to banishment.The record company is APPLE records.
