Summary:The student preachers are everywhere you go at Duluth High School. Students preach in the hallways in between classes and in the courtyard where students pass on the way to lunch. The evangelists post signs all around school praising God. The faculty does not remove the signs, but some students vandalize or remove them. The preaching students stand at the exit of the parking lot so students who drive and their passengers are forced to observe more antics at the end of the day. Wicca is a religion, similar to any other. It is composed of people trying to find a spiritual answer. Wicca is modern witchcraft, but it is not all about casting spells on your enemies. The spells are more like peaceful prayers. I would call myself a student of religion. I take parts of every religion and form my own beliefs. Nevertheless, I don't pass out pamphlets to students at school about my religious beliefs.
