I guess that is one of my biggest questions. I have always believed in Jesus Christ and will continue to do so until I die. But I also believe in magic...and want to learn all about it, possibly practice it but are you telling me that I can't do both?
I'm sorry chrono but you are completely wrong. Many of these Christian witches follow a gnostic view of theology believing that God has two part , male and female. Yahweh is the male part of God, Sophia is the female. In fact, many wiccans view the god and goddes as two parts of one being.
firstly, you are acting so un wiccan right now. how much sh!t have you gotten for being a wiccan, and how many times have you thought that what you believe is right,and that they are wrong in telling me that i cant believe in what i believe in. this is the same position has i describe, but ur telling us we cant believe this way. also if you live in America, you should know that in America we have freedom of religion, thats why religions such as scientology is a religion. for another, you dont have to believe in the bible if your a christian becuase if you would listen to the basics, christianity is the practice of believing that Jesus Christ is your lord and savor. another thing, dont tell me how to believe and what to believe in, and how i can and can not believe in, and i wont do the same to you. lastly i honestly could care less what you believe is right or wrong, and what you believe what i cant believe or can believe in, especailly if you are so ignorant, open your brain and not be so close minded, and wont take the time to honestly figure out what a religion is and what they believe in. o and another thing, dont tell me i make sh!t up about my religion becuase all religions are made up, and you cant prove that any god or goddess, saint or angle, deitie or demon, came down and told someone what to believe in and what is right or wrong.
Religion basically is what people believe to be true. Diversity is what makes us as humans interesting and many people fail to notice that. Magnus if everyone was exactly alike in every way it would make being human very boring.
Never said anything about different being bad, don't put words in my mouth. I merely pointed out that people shouldn't simply make things up and expect what they have made up to be accepted or agreed with, simply because people are free to call a thing by whatever name they wish. That is relativism, but it's not what I', talking about, I'm talking about realism. I
If you say or do something that doesn't make sense, and do it in a public place, I'd expect someone to point it out, maybe that's just me. You are free to say or do whatever you want, just as I am free to point out it's bull**** and makes no sense if that happens to be the case. Changing around meanings of words and calling yourself something that is contrary to the words meaning is a good way to always be right of course, as who can disagree with you when everything is relative, but that's not how reality works. There is no such thing as a Muslim/Jew, just as there is no such thing as a Christian/Pagan, the two are anathema to one another, and calling yourself such actually shows a clear lack of understanding, and makes a person look foolish, unless that person is in the company of others who think in the same way of course. What is that same way? Relative thinking, that is what I speak of. If you have heard of and studied moral relativity, than you will know the dangers that such relative thinking can pose. If you have not, than you've no idea of what I speak, and my arguments will mean nothing to you. If that is the case, well than I suggest more study.
Anyhow, I wish you well. To the person who thinks they are a Pagan/Christian, please do continue to make up stuff that makes no sense.
Though this site is heavily insulated from the real world, there will always be someone who is actually grounded in reality, or is not a yes man, or relativist, that will have the courage to disagree with your nonsense, so get used to it, or of course never leave this site. Bye bye.
your the type of person that will never lesson to what people are saying, and will never try to understand what is really go on in the real world, when you are living in your own litle world. you wont listen to what people are saying becuase you think that you are always right. i help you know that what you say doesnt effect my thinking at all. and this site is dedicated to people that incorporate magick, and paganism in their spiritual path, not for aruging and tell people their religion is wrong, so i would just get off this site if you are telling people how or how not to practice.
I can not believe this! You call yourself a Wiccan, because that is totally un-Wiccan like to be bashing on others religions! Most people who turn to Wicca do so knowing the sh!t they have to take from others, and now you are doing that! Imagine, finding a Christian openminded enough to try and incorporate another spiritual path into their own, instead of coming here and saying something like you will burn in hell.

I'm not arguing, I am not giving you the satisfaction!
