I'm sorry, I really don't know much about religion, and I suppose it's because I grew up hearing about how it was backwards and barbaric and mostly a way for muggles to justify their hatred of magic. I have heard some people say that Jesus must have been a magician, because he transfigured water and food and levitated, and that he was trying to do what he could to make muggles accept magic and see it as something that was a blessing from God. But then I've also heard people say that Jesus is proof that muggles are evil, because even though he helped them, they killed him anyway.
I know that in parts of Scotland they worship the old Celtic Gods, like Robin Goodfellow, and Rhiannon.
Occlumency isn't a bad thing, I know I'm glad I can do it, but I wouldn't much like to be a Legilimens. Then I really would be like Mummy. That's how she'd see it, anyway. But at least with being good at the Dark Arts... I mean, Arts, well, you don't have to use them unless you feel you must. There's always a choice.
I love you too. I wish I would have slipped out to see the "Matron."
