I could use some advice.

My friend Ray practices Wicca and his wife is Christian (not quite sure how that can blend, but they seem to make it work). They have agreed that their children will be raised with a combination of both.

My issue is that the witchcraft makes me very uncomfortable. In the past, Ray has said he will say some sort of positive energy spell for me or make me some herbs to put under my pillow - I finally told him that I wasn't comfortable with it and we no longer discuss it.

When their 2 year old was born, they had a Wiccan naming ceremony on one weekend, then his baptism a month later. I only attended the baptism. They've just had a baby girl and are planning on combining the 2 this time. They will do the baptism, then have a get together immediately afterwards at their house for the naming ceremony.

Do you think it would be rude for me to attend the baptism and not the party afterwards? or possibly show up later, after the wiccan rituals. I don't know why it makes me feel so uncomfortable, but it really does - and I couldn't in good conscience be an active participant like they want everyone to do (Ray says they say some very postive chants that they ask people to repeat).

Any ideas how I can do this gracefully without insulting them?
