Everyone should read it, especially wiccans. The website's really not that offensive at all, it's just informative. So read it before you rag on it.

What i want to know is what is her reason for hating wiccans so much?As she obviously does(im referring it to a girl,because,welli dont know,got the feeling it was a girl wacko.gif no offence to anyone).Unless they have done her some kind of wrong?Im clueless.

This person apparently doesnt know much about Wicca or Wiccans.

Im with you Celticwitch. sad.gif crying.gif

I have seriously mixed feelings about this one. On the one hand the persons arguements were hillarious, and they have certainly done some homework( Not that his homework is necessarly correct). On the OTHER HAND; this person freely admits that they are a witch because they want the power that comes with it, and it does not seem like there is much holding them back in the way of conscience. All in all I would have to say that I have extremely bad feelings about this person. If what they make themselves out to be is true then they are too angry, and have too much of a thirst for power than can be good for anyone. His rantings are relatively quiet, but it is the quiet ones I have learned to fear.

After reading the site, I don't know anymore about Wicca than I did before.

I thought they burned witches though because they worshipped Satan?! devil.gif Don't profess to know anything about that either....


...still clueless and..I've never been to Seattle... ph34r.gif

Hobbes, After looking through the website you suggested I feel you have stolen 10 minutes from life...not good mate !.
I also have to agree with Crosswarrior. This person seems very angry and apart from the babble doesn't seem to give a good reason why she hates Wiccans so much and also seems to tar all Wiccans with the same brush.

Despite the weirdness ,the site does have some valid info on their . I believe that I myself have encountered some of these fluffs myself . They truly do love to bash christians .
TheOracle
Very true Xenojjin, I have met some Wiccans who like to bash Christians also but I have also met Christians who love to bash Wiccans, jehova's witness's, mormons and just about every other religion you could name.
However I wouldn't go as far as to say that all Christians are the same because of this.
Hobbes
Listen, I didn't mean to post this link to offend anyone. Like I say, I didn't think it was that offensive, more informative.

However, the person never said they were a witch for

the power that comes with it
They said that medieval and earlier mages, whom many wiccans say they share a link with, when really they would have laughed at the thought of not using magic for personal gain.

Like I say, you guys should read all the essays on the site carefully before you bash the author.

I did, and I can stiil see the predjudice that has blighted most religions from seeing another's point of view... And I am very open minded... I also don't use my magic for personnal gain... what would be the point?
LisaMHD
Isnt it against Wiccan beliefs to use magic for personal gain anyway??? At least thats what I was told, and also read.

I actually find this quite offensive. In a sense Wicca IS a religion, and you should respect that. I mean, you wouldn't get away with "Why Muslims suck" would you?

No.

I mean, i'm Pagan and proud of it, but i still respect other peoples beliefs.

So stop acting like children.

Or just don't post stuff like this again?
joc
Just a side note:

The Romans killed the Christians. The Jews killed Jesus. The Christians killed the muslims and burned witches. The Radical Islamic Movement wants to kill anyone who disagrees with them.

When, if ever, are people going to stop killing other people in the name of their religion?

I am not in the favor of censorship but I do think that maybe this forum should outlaw any discussion of religion at all because it is always such a volatile subject. cool.gif blink.gif

What do others think?
crosswarrior
I DO NOT believe discussions should be censored any more than should discussions on Government Conspirisies, Aliens, or Ghosts. We all have cetain beliefs, and conflicts will occure; that is how we come into contact with other beliefs. Yes, sometimes it will become necessary to lock a thread that has erupted into a yelling match; but at the same time I have seen more threads fissle on their own accord than have to be shut down. I do not know about others but I am here to say what I believe, not what someone wants me to believe. If we take away the oppurtunity for people to show some maturity and learn how to express thoughts without being offensive, then what good is this forum?
