I'm a Witch who well practices Witchcraft. I'm also a physic. I do not necessarily have any deities. I left my catholic faith. I know many Catholic witches. I stay loyal and I love the virgin Mary. I can say she is my deity. I worship her and yeah. I do not believe in Jesus as the son of God. Had a vision of her and she told me to bring honey, milk, and a rose. I also have rose insence! Is there anyone like me? Help? Whats your input?

"I can say she is my deity. I worship her and yeah. I do not believe in Jesus as the son of God."

In Christianity she is important solely because she is the mortal mother to the Son of God. So who is she to you?

I don't care what Christianity thinks. Christmas is in Yule. Some Catholic saints are pagan Gods. Satan is you know what. Get the idea?

Jews reject the idea of a virgin birth since It's a pagan thing. When the gods use to get women pregnant so there sons became demigods. And I stand from that view point.

... No. I asked who you believe the Virgin Mary is. I wasn't trying to say that you had to believe the same thing as Christianity, I was just pointing out that since you clearly don't believe the same thing as them, we don't actually know what you believe since you haven't told us. Which brings me back to my original question of what do you believe about the Virgin Mary?

This seems to suggest that you believe that Mary was impregnated by a god, thus making her son (Jesus) a son of a god.

"I do not believe in Jesus as the son of God."

... so would it therefore be more accurate to say you believe Jesus is son of a god, or what?

I promise I'm really just trying to understand what you believe. Since I too identify both with the Abrahamic tradition and with Paganism, this is of great interest to me.

The whole impregnate thing was adding to the idea of Christianity stealing from Paganism.

So still, who is the Virgin Mary to you? What parts of the myth about her to you believe are true and which are wrong? Why do you worship her? How do you worship her?

Oh ok. I come from a very strong Catholic family so we had a very strong devotion to the virgin Mary. We use to pray in front of her statue. Light up candles. Sing to her. Pray in her name. It made her look more like a God. I had many miracles in my life that I believe that came to the virgin Mary. I believe since lots of people honor her and venerate her she is more like an "energy" and her "energy" flow is alive (I dunno if you get it). I believe in her apparitions so basically the only thing I'm changing is her being a none God. Cause you know how protestants say she is a God and Catholics worship her etc. I'm making that statement true. The way I worship her is I bring offerings I pray to her. I do all my meditations around her statue. I feel her presence. I just love the idea that she has a motherly side to her.
