Wiccan's will do the same if left to their own devices. Quoting: SevenThunders Yes, like all false religions, Wicca is satanic and is designed to ravage your soul. And Christians would go around slaughtering those that disagreed with them if left to their own devices... Like they did until the last couple centuries. |

Sometimes a practitioner rises above it. And becomes what? Evil? Not hardly. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5846208 Certainly only as evil as the Christians I have known who use their religion to exact the utmost from those in their employ and then again to keep from rewarding those same people. And sometimes I see in Wiccans a glimmer of a more holy spirit than that of the churches that have asked me to leave because of the clothes that I wear. The Christians you know sound like false Christians and there churches are what you would call organized religion not really true Christianity!! The biblical definition of the Christian church is "the body of Christian believers" not some stupid building!! True Christianity is not a religion! It is a personal relationship with the living GOD through Jesus Christ in prayer. I have a personal relationship with the creator (creator>created), and it has no relation to the bible. |

Turn to Jesus for a way out. Odd how that works. Jesus is the Law. why worship the created when you can pray to God direct? Actually, you're wrong. Christianity was just a mash up of previous religious systems, written in a way to garner the support of the lower classes to allow the elite to more easily control them. |

They love the Creator and the Creation and respect the forces of the elements. A good book to read about various modern pagans is Drawing Ddown the Moon by Margot Adler. The real devil worshippers are not connected to these people, I have been under attack my whole life by evil forces and possessed people, but never by the pagans. They are gentle,tolerant, loving people that believe the creation is sacred. Those that are killing in the name of God are serving the devil. Please respect life! |

Nevertheless, if it helps one person: Wicca is evil because it is a practice of taking matters into your own hands to achieve ego-based goals. Let's pretend Wicca was about ensuring the crops will be bountiful, which is what you hear all the time about the source of Wicca. Well, the first thing we notice is that we do not trust God to provide for us. We do not trust that if crops *ARENT* bountiful, for whatever reason, that there isn't a greater purpose behind it in the grand scheme of things. Therefore, Wicca is a reactionary practice driven by fear, envy and mistrust of Creator. This alone tells you who THEIR God is, the God who thrives off of fear. One who is in touch with a benevolent God knows, for a certainty, that God provides. Needs are covered and wants are materialistic and envious. This is why a proper prayer is always a prayer of thanksgiving, and never a prayer of request. |

Neo and reconstruction paganism are not the demonized slaughtering barbarians we;ve been told. Fact they were more prosperous and effcient then the Catholic empires that sought to stamp out any free thinking or freeform religion. The reality is Good and evil are non exsistent in the natural world, we only observe chaos and order. The young halk fights in the sky with the old halk for territory and thus, niether are evil they just are just as it all is. No creator, just creation. Oh and just a reminder that hellenistic pagans brought us the most advanced and free society before catholicism ( which is just a control mechanism based on fear ) adopted the traditions of the surrounding peoples as thier own. This is why everyone has to constantly remind chritians and catholics thier religion is just a modification of germanic and celtic paganism, it is not a religion onto itself. It's very foundations are built on pagan principles and truths. |
THE WORDSMITH User ID: 36449309 United States 06/26/2014 12:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Question: "What is Wicca? Is Wicca witchcraft?" Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59631556 Answer: Wicca is a neo-pagan religion that has been growing in popularity and acceptance in the United States and Europe. There are many websites and books claiming to teach “real” Wicca, but the truth is, there is no consensus among Wiccans as to what the religion is all about. The reason for this is that Wicca, as it is practiced now, is only about 50 years old. Wicca is a belief system that Briton Gerald Gardner cobbled together in the 1940s and 1950s from a variety of religious traditions and beliefs as well as Freemason rituals. Since Gardner published several books espousing his system of worship, many offshoots and variations of Wicca have sprung up. Some Wiccans are polytheistic, worshipping more than one deity, while others worship only the “God” or the “Goddess.” Still other Wiccans worship nature, and call it Gaea, after the Greek earth goddess. Some Wiccans pick and choose parts of Christian doctrine to embrace, while others totally reject Christianity. Most practitioners of Wicca believe in reincarnation. Most Wiccans will vehemently deny that Satan is part of their pantheon, citing major doctrinal differences between themselves and Satanists. Wiccans generally promote moral relativity, disdaining labels like “good” and “evil” and “right” or “wrong.” Wicca has one law or rule, called the Rede: “Do what ye will, harm ye none.” At first blush, the Rede seems like complete, uninhibited personal license. You can do whatever you want, as long as no one gets hurt; however, Wiccans are quick to point out that the ripple effect of one’s actions can carry far-reaching consequences. They articulate this principle in the Three-fold Law, which says, "All good that a person does to another returns three-fold in this life; harm is also returned three-fold." One major factor that contributes to the abiding fascination with Wicca is the purported use of spells and magick (a deliberate misspelling intended to separate Wiccans from magicians and illusionists). Curiosity seekers, as well as spiritual neophytes, are most eager to delve into these mysteries. Not all Wiccans practice witchcraft, but those that do claim magick is to them what prayer is to a Christian. The difference between the two is that Wiccans claim magick is simply using their minds to control matter, or they are appealing to their favorite deity to do them a favor, while Christians call upon an omnipotent, omnipresent God to heal people and to intervene and work in their lives. Because the Rede disallows witches from hurting others and the Three-fold Law spells out the consequences for Rede-breakers, witches who practice magick prefer to call themselves “nature witches” or “white witches” to further distance themselves from Satanists. Wicca is basically a religion that is about minding your own business and living peaceably with your neighbors and environment. Wiccans are eager to draw parallels between themselves and biblical Christianity for the sake of earning credibility, but what does the Bible have to say about this religion? You won’t find the word “wicca” in the Bible, so let’s evaluate the beliefs in light of what God says about them. Wiccan spells are idolism—Romans 1:25 says, “They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served created things, rather than the Creator…” Who wants to settle for second best? In Isaiah 40, God paints a picture of how much greater the Creator is than His creation. If you are worshipping anything besides the Creator, you are not only spinning your wheels, you are guilty of idolatry.

Much of the Catholic practices are not biblical! The Roman Empire created Christianity and it still controls it today. The Roman Empire made Christianity the official Roman religion but did not create Christianity. They created a counterfeit version of Christianity to control the Roman sheeple maybe but they did not create true Christianity!! True Christianity is a personal relationship with the living GOD through Jesus Christ in prayer!! Not some Roman Catholic Church Club!!! Actually there is a little truth in this, followers of Jesus' teachings existed before the Romans made it into roman catholism, but if you want to go there then you must acknowledge that the roman church is the only reason you know who Jesus is today and that before they got their hands on him and the New Testament he was just an intelligent man. He did not rise from the dead at ester (pagan celebration of spring) and was not born at xmas (pagan celebration of the days becoming longer). He was crafted to suit there needs but maintain pagan holidays and traditions.... Your Jesus is no more a god than you and I... His words were teachings ( if you can find the real ones, unadulterated by the church), wonderful teachings if you get he meaning, but no more important that any other intelligent being that understand how this world works. The Wiccan simply alters the golden rule slightly but outcome is the same, due unto others as you would have them do unto you, every true religion states it in some way..... Jesus is part of the GODHEAD: Father + Son + Holy Spirit = GOD 1 Timothy 3:16 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. King James Version (KJV) |

They definitely are not an evil bunch - actually if anything they are a bunch of bunny huggers. The believe that the earth and creation should be taken care of (not bad thinking). They don't believe in Satan at all, in fact they believe Satan is a Christian made to scare the people into worship. Quoting: Saxon I don't think I have ever heard or seen a bit of mean or ugly come from any of them No one is saying that all people that practices Wicca are evil, they are naive and have been deceived into an evil practice. |

If people would only just "get it." What a truly amazing productive world this could be. No need for greed or power over others. We could all just be and be happy, healthy and what HUMANS were meant to be. Instead MAN messed it up for greed and power. idealistic thinking, but it can never be... not here on earth, or anywhere in this galaxy... it is wise to understand - physical existence is flawed by design... the intention is not to continue the game - it is to recognize the game for what it is, recognize who you are, complete your experiences, and move on... simple to understand, challenging to do... Until you recognize the golden rule you will never move on, life is a "game" of experiences and challenges and whatever journey your sould has chosen for you in this existence, it is your challenge to overcome all greed, hatred lust materialism fear poverty oppression etc... When you can live by the golden rule in every moment you breath you can take the next step... Simple concept, incredible challenge! what is your definition of the "golden rule" ? Do to others as you want done to yourself This poster sums it up nicely at the bottom of the link.... [link to www.scarboromissions.ca (secure)] |
