The Wiccan Rede says only that you CAN do something if it does no harm. It says nothing about what you CAN'T do. Many assume that the restriction on doing harm is implied in it, but nowhere does it state that. All it says is you definately can do something if no one is harmed. It's up the the individual to make the choice about harmful actions. Troyce
