METHUEN -- A 27-year-old Chelmsford woman is in serious condition after a vehicle she was riding in got rear ended by a Hummer driven by Sully Erna, vocalist for the metal band Godsmack, on Interstate 93.
State police said Lindsay Taylor, 27, was riding in a Toyota Camry driven by Eric Sargent, 31, of Haverhill, when it was rear ended by Erna's Hummer H3 near the Route 213 interchange on Wednesday night.
The Camry was pushed into a Honda Odyssey driven by Maureen White, 41, of Londonderry, N.H., though Taylor was the only person hurt in the crash, Lt. Eric Anderson said.
Taylor was initially taken to Lawrence General Hospital with what were thought to be minor injuries, but then had to be flown to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, where she remained in serious condition last night, a hospital spokesman said.
Erna fronts Godsmack, a local metal band that has had two albums and four songs top the charts, according to Billboard.com. Erna now lives in Windham, N.H. He grew up in Lawrence.
Isn't he wiccan?
For most Wiccans, the Lord and Lady are seen as complementary polarities: male and female, force and form, comprehending all in their union; the tension and interplay between them is the basis of all creation. The God and Goddess are sometimes symbolised as the Sun and Moon, and from her lunar associations the Goddess becomes a Triple Goddess with aspects of "Maiden", "Mother" and "Crone" corresponding to the Moon's waxing, full and waning phases.
Some Wiccans hold the Goddess to be pre-eminent, since she contains and conceives all (Gaea or Mother Earth is one of her more commonly revered aspects); the God, commonly described as the Horned God or the Divine Child, is the spark of life and inspiration within her, simultaneously her lover and her child. This is reflected in the traditional structure of the coven, which is led by a High Priestess and High Priest in partnership, with the High Priestess having the final word. In some traditions, notably Feminist branches of Dianic Wicca, the Goddess is seen as complete unto herself, and the God is not worshipped at all.
Since the Goddess is said to conceive and contain all life within her, all beings are held to be divine. This is a key understanding conveyed in the Charge of the Goddess, one of the most important texts of Wicca, and is very similar to the Hermetic understanding that "God" contains all things, and in truth is all things.[13] For some Wiccans, this idea also involves elements of animism, and plants, rivers, rocks (and, importantly, ritual tools) are seen as spiritual beings, facets of a single life.
A key belief in Wicca is that the gods are able to manifest in personal form, either through dreams, as physical manifestations, or through the bodies of Priestesses and Priests. The latter kind of manifestation is the purpose of the ritual of Drawing down the Moon (or Drawing down the Sun), whereby the Goddess is called to descend into the body of the Priestess (or the God into the Priest) to effect divine possession.
This indicates to me that wiccan's hold the earth in high regard, why would a wiccan own a Hummer?
