Firstly, you should be very cautious of the person who actually has the imagination to come up with the concept of "baby eating"...they obviously need to get their head checked, quickly.:mad:

Secondly, Pip said it perfectly.

I don't know, but someone told me to burn my FM cds, because I've been brainwashed by Stevie and Mick.
I'm not really sure where it came from.

When that has happened in the past, it's usually been a fundamentalist Christian group of some sort. You know the type -- they literally burn albums. I think all those fumes from the melting vinyl have seriously upset their equilibrium.

Mac Fan 11-22-2002 11:35 AM

The person that told me that Stevie nad Mick are evil, just said that they don't have any proof, but said everyone knows it's true.:confused:

Sounds just so familiar...like back in 1966...the whole "Beatles are bigger than Jesus" fiasco that had people burning Beatles albums. I can safely say that 90% of those people are regretting doing that considering today's market value of original Beatle LP pressings. :nod:

And, just look where "religious fundamentalism" got the Taliban! :laugh: Like Pete Townshend said, "Too much of anything, is too much for me"

I'd never have friends like that.
One of the people that thinks that Stevie's a witch, just said that he has no proof, that she's a witch.

Bella Figura 11-22-2002 12:13 PM

this is such an old issue that crops up every once in awhile...

the real question is "MacFan, why do you listen to these people and give any credence to their opinions or any your mind time (thinking time) at all?"

in fact you have alot of questions to ask yourself...

"do YOU like the band?? do YOU think they're evil? do YOU feel Anyone is controlling you/brainwashing you or wants to?? do YOU have your own mind even if it means not going along with the crowd??"

answer these questions honestly for yourself and then other peoples opinions will no longer affect you and you will be truly exercising you God-given "free will"...

btw, we have quite a few pagans online here on the board including myself and I have not met one "evil" person yet however I have met many manipulative not-nice and even truly evil in real life who claim to be quite religious...

DrummerDeanna 11-22-2002 12:18 PM

It's true...the people I trust least in my life are the ones that are (or present the image) of being SO overly religious...most of the time they do things that don't at all reflect that...

Anyway...I can't even tell you how many times people tell me, "oh...you like Stevie NIcks? She's a witch you know." AHHHHH!!!!

I'm so tired of it...BUT...it's a fact of a Stevie fan's life lol...just take it all with a grain of salt.

I find it amusing the things people deem "evil" a town one hour from mine had a Harry Potter book burning a while back..they actually burned books! crazyness....

I try not to listen to these people, but it comes up an awful lot. It's things like 'Who's better, Fleetwood Mac or Step?'
The person that posted that topic said 'Step are better, because Stevie Nicks is a baby eating witch and lives in trees.'
I try not to go along with what everyone says, but the subject of Stevie being a witch, comes up far too much. And when I try and explain that Stevie's not a witch, I get banned for it.
Loads of people are actually brainwashing me with lies. It's not Stevie and Mick brainwashing me, it's everyone who thinks that Stevie's a witch, Satan wrote all of their songs and some other cr@p about the other members.

bookie29 11-22-2002 01:06 PM

This Stevie is a witch subject really irritates me. I have heard this many times before. It bothers me because there are people that actually believe this lie and won't listen to her or Fleetwood Mac because of it.

My own cousin, who is very religous, heard this rumour from her co-workers. These people are supposed Stevie fans and Devil Worshipers. They told her that there was a bar in Texas that is frequented by Witches & Devil Worshipers & Stevie had been seen there. My cousin called me at work to warn me not to listen to her music anymore.

This angers me because my cousin was a casual Stevie listener & now she has concerns about her music.

I told her it was nonsense & to remember that these same people filed a complaint against her for reading the Bible during lunch. They claimed that the Bible was offensive to their beliefs.

I guess there are a lot of crazy & delusional people in this world.

Where was this topic anyway???

And Fleetwood Mac being compared to Steps??!!! Utter tosh

sulamith 11-22-2002 01:32 PM

There's just an awful lot of people in this world who can't think for themselves so they believe everything that "they", whoever this elusive "they" are, say.

Sounds like these folks need to open their minds and maybe they would acquire a brain cell or two and learn to form a real opinion.

What dank jail cell of a parent's basement did these folks crawl out of, anyway?

Bella Figura 11-22-2002 01:48 PM

"utter tosh" oh Pip, thanks for the laugh, I could actually hear you saying that to your pc.

here's my best Bronx,NY for you "hey, i'm talkin' here...leave the gun, take the canolis!"

poor Stevie and poor fans are we, will she ever live her witch comments down??...but there are tons of people online who like to be vulgar, mean-spirited and just plain annoying, so if they know your a Stevie fan, the witch thing will never die...

Deanna, that was too scary to read about those bookburnings...but not surprising, just look at the news and see what Falwell, Swaggart and their cronies are saying about Islam...people really should just keep their opinions to themselves sometimes...

Wldhrt315 11-22-2002 01:51 PM

This boggles my mind. I believe it is healthy for people to have an opinion but the type of people who stuff their beliefs and thoughts down other peoples throats are poor pathetic fools. What makes what they believe superior to others? Nothing. In fact it makes their beliefs seem dumb. The people who are badgering you MacFan should be ignored. Don't get all upset with them, they just want to get a rise out of you. Be superior, don't let it affect you.

sulamith 11-22-2002 02:32 PM

That's right! And what's worse is people who base their opinions on such lame foundations.

There are a few people on this board who are not very big fans of Stevie's, and a few more who particularly don't care for her at all, but at least most of those people can give an intelligent reason as to why they aren't fans. If you are going to avoid the work of any type of artist, that is certainly fine............

...........just have a half-decent reason for your actions. Just saying it's not your taste or you really don't like it is more intelligent than spouting that kind of verbal diarrhea.


That type of reasoning is for a$$hats and f*@ktards.

Mac Fan, in my very humble opinion, I think it wouldn't be such a bad idea if you didn't visit this board that you're talking about ever again. It's one thing people expressing extreme views about particular subjects, but "getting banned" for trying to explain that "Stevie Nicks is not a witch" makes me wonder about the mental health of the administrators/moderators of the board. The same moderators obviously seem to be ok with people posting that "Satan wrote all the Fleetwood Mac songs", which is possibly the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life, to the point where I actually cracked up laughing when I read it, and again confirms for me that they've obviously got at least a few thousand screws lose...

Take care,

:wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

You're saying something similar to what someone else said, FM can't be compared to Steps, because they both do different types of music, and therefore you can't compare them.
I'm so glad that my brother and sister don't say things like that to me. All they say is 'Fleetwood Mac are crap' and then they just leave at that.

Um...I'm sorry ...but I really don't think you can use the words Step and music in the same sentence. Steps are manufactured pop puppets who have split now anyway

LOlL. I think you might be right.

golddustwoman77 11-22-2002 04:16 PM

This is one of those topics that just infuriates me!!! :mad: I don't understand where people get these things! I guess it is because she wrote and sang one song about a witch, of course the song, Rhiannon. It is insane to say that because of this song that she is a witch. That would be like saying because I wrote a song or sing a song about drugs, I'm a drug addict! It is just silly. In no way does Stevie or the band exhibit behaviors that suggest they are devil worshipers! These people that you speak of need to research Fleetwood Mac and their music, before they make comments about them. Education is the best weapon! They desperately need some! If they did learn about them for real and didn't go by hear-say, they would know this is just crazy to the very core! :nod:

:wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

silversprings8 11-22-2002 04:23 PM

I really don't understand why some people are so rediculous. I mean if you don't like someone's music... you don't have to go around and make up lame stories about them.

Sounds to me like they're jealous..... jealous of what you might ask????........ they're jealous of Stevie and how cool she is!!!!! Because they know they'll NEVER be remmotely close to the great and wonderful person she is!


Those people can just kiss my a$$..... we'll leave it at that.

FiercestCalmSea 11-22-2002 04:59 PM

These idiots must think they are damn brilliant..that's why Stevie doesn't have any kids..she ate them all...and of COURSE Satan possessed her to write songs like "Landslide" and "Touched By An Angel"...yup...she is the devil incarnate,that woman...LMAO...sometimes i wonder WHERE these people come from...they can't be human...Mac Fan,I am sorry they give you such a hard time..but they are ignorant and disrepectful in their thinking,and people like that just aren't worth your time...and btw..who the f**k are Step????

More AOL CHAT Stevie haters...Its really getting on my nerves....

DarthSnootch: Gold Dust woman, the old cocaine song for Stevie Nicks

DarthSnootch: she lost her nose over coke so she had someone blow it up her ass

DarthSnootch: its true, her nose is totally restructured like Michael Jackson

DarthSnootch: and the story goes that she used cocaine suppositories

DarthSnootch: or had someone blow the coke up her ass to get high

Someone actually said that to me.
I made a thread about songs that make me cry(and they were all FM songs)and someone asked me why. I said I don't really know and then they just started sayings things like Stevie has no kids because she ate them all.
One person also said that every time you buy a FM album, one child gets eaten by Stevie.
I hate people who do that. It's not so bad when they say 'I don't like the type of music that Fleetwood Mac do' or things along those lines and just leave it like that. I'm fine with that.

greatdarkwing 11-22-2002 05:42 PM

They make these cr@p comments, and then they have no proof to back it up! Both of the people that I listed their comments above, I asked them if they had proof......GUESS WHAT? THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY! You should just tell them to give you proof next time Mac Fan....Make them look like the bone-heads when they can't back it up!

~Alex

P.S. STAY AWAY FROM THAT BOARD....STEVIE WILL EAT THEM SOON! LOL!!!!!!

Sleeping Angel 11-22-2002 05:42 PM

Maybe I'm too much of a realist...but are there people out there that believe in witches??? Are we talking Glenda or the wicked witch of the east? Or how 'bout the chicks on charmed??? Now those are some witches!!

Come on.....

greatdarkwing 11-22-2002 05:45 PM

Just as there are peopl who believe that we never reached the moon, that the Holocaust never happened, that there are aliens amongst us, that Stevie Nicks is a child-eating witch who wants to take over the world.........ONE WORD.......IDIOTS!

i am just so shocked by this... that some people are so incredibly ignorant... i mean, it is an incredibly hurtful thing to say... and though stevie has a wonderful sense of humor and would probably laugh at a lot of the sh1t we say here... i think this is just way over the top... i doubt she'd laugh at this rumor... it's sad. really sad. i'm so blown away that i'm almost laughing.... but it's just so terrible... i am speechless.

Mac Fan 11-22-2002 06:07 PM

They know all of this stuff about Stevie being a witch isn't true. For some strange reason, they only started all these rumours, when I'd only just become a fan. :confused: :confused:
The thing is, I can't actually prove that Stevie isn't a witch, but I have mentioned a few times, that in an interview, she denied it.
The people that say those kind of things, are making nearly everyone else believe it. What makes it harder, is that fact that all of these people that are telling these rumours, are in their 20s.
I think that's sad. It wouldn't be so bad if my sister said those kind of things, because she's only 11. I'd expect her to say that kind of thing, but I don't expect people that are older than me to say that type of thing, especially when they know it's not true.

wondergirl9847 11-22-2002 06:26 PM

Morons.
 
People say these things because they are ignorant. They don't do their research, they only listen to rumours and lies and pass judgment based on that. I have to admit, when I was a kid, I thought she was a witch too, because I was TOLD that. Now that I'm older, I can think for myself and make my own decisions. Wasn't Stevie raised Catholic, she probably holds some of those beliefs still...I'm sure she believes in God and talks to Him in her own way...she is a very spiritual person.

I'm sorry for your bad experiences. However, I just want everyone to remember that:
a) these people haven't claimed to be of any religious affiliation; for all we know they are "pagans" too. Frankly, they sound too young and stupid to have made any informed religious decisions.
b) I haven't met any evil faux religious people from the board either, but even if I had, I certainly wouldn't take their claims of religion seriously. They are definitely not reflective of Christianity as a whole, no more than Osama Bin Laden is reflective of Islam. And, sadly, I believe in "real life" it is also possible to find some folks who are "pagan" and not so nice. It is an unfortunate fact of life that evil can find a place in every imaginable categorization of people. So why give people labels like that?

Finally, I've never heard anyone with half a brain, religious or not, claim that Stevie eats babies!! These folks obviously are not the sharpest pencils in the box, to put it mildly. Why springboard off of them to criticize others?
