My name is Sara. I have to interview someone of a different religion for my Ritual and Religion course in college. I have chosen the Temple of Set because I had done some very mild research on their website for another class and I found the religion interesting. So please, if you are a member and could answer the questions that I have (below), I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance!
