Ash & I do feel a bit responsible for some of the misinformation that is circulating because we started this site to inform the public on Spirit Keeping, and then the Forum was opened specifically for discussing Spirit Keeping in an open format and debunking some of absolute ludicrousness that emerged after Spirit Keeping exploded on the internet.
However, our only defense is we cannot inform someone on misinformation until we're aware of the misinformation.
I think we've said many, many times before, and I suppose we'll have to say it many, many times again that you HAVE TO SEPARATE HOLLYWOOD FROM FACT!!!
Hollywood is fun, watching TV shows like True Blood, Supernatural, etc are fun. Watching movies like Twilight and LOTR is fun. They, however, have a serious breakage from reality. I really mean that, a serious breakage.
They can't take what has been printed 100 times before and keep regurgitating it on the screen, so they take what is known fact and skew it to fit their plot line, or come up with a new way of presenting the material so you will tune in or buy a ticket.
Spirit Keeping is not Hollywood, it's real. When you hear people quoting you advice, or giving you information that has its source in Hollywood you need to appreciate the fact they're trying to help, but realize they really have no idea what they're talking about.
Please, please, please, please, please, please, please (I can't say it enough), take the time to separate fact from fiction. Please.
PLEASE, DEAR GOD, SEPARATE FACT FROM FICTION

Thank you for this post! I can't tell you how many times I've cringed at the misinformation in these shows just all-around. My favorite is probably when Hollywood uses "Wicca" and "witch" interchangeably. /sighs

However I do agree, Hollywood is for entertainment and does NOT show the truth of the matter, even though there may be some truth, it is still not the whole truth as it has been made to fit the movie or show!!!! 7\

Currently, Hollywood and TV Media are going on a real witch hunt, and have already "scooped up" all the nasty and dark humour replies and statements all over the web. This All Hallows Eve will have terrible stuff running thru the entire week (note; I am NOT talking about the "Classic Occult Movies" of the 1920s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and partial-1960s"... It is the blood and Gore - Criminal Minds - way of creating tv stories.
The media moguls are largely to blame for being money whores with peoples' imaginations, But Also: there has been a lot of "I love death, destruction, evisceration, torture humour out there - all over the web and in most Occult-Metaphysical sites - and it will get worse before it gets better - and it will effect sales across the board for the next half year (that is, if O.M. people take the time to "fix it", or the next 2 years, until boredom sets in with the viewing and game playing public.
As a professional marketing media person (Mad Ave and all that) , It is my opinion, that as of now - no quick fixes exist.
