can someone help me about Christian Witchraft ? i wanted to start soon as possible....
Witchcraft is Witchcraft, not a religion. So anyone of any religion can practice Witchcraft if they wish to. Think of Witchcraft as being both and art and a science of magic as well as a way of living in tune with the natural world. You don't need to search out Christian Witchcraft, simply Witchcraft. Keep your religion separate from your magic.
That is Lark, unless you are a part of a magical tradition which involves religion like heka. In that case you can't "keep your religion separate". Then again, they didn't have a term defining religion as different/other so it's kind of a moot point if you've studied heka (or the religion itself).
We seem to have gone off the thread.However, there is nothing supernatural about witchcraft. No Gods, no Goddesses. I practise witchcraft and I am an Atheist! Witchcraft is the study and application of Nature. The magic of "change". Witchcraft is "what it says on the tin"; it is a Craft!
I never mentioned Witchcraft Brysing, only magic that is specific to the Egyptian mindset and how it goes beyond the separation "guidelines". In my perspective, Witchcraft is something totally different as it specifically is involving British Traditional Witchcraft (which is separated).
I responded to the term magic and how it is important to keep it separate from one's religious inclinations because in heka it is important to not do that.

Also for the record, Sorginkeria is the Basque term for Witches and followers of the Goddess Mari. In this case, Witchcraft is religious.
Concerning the original post, you can't take the Bible literally because it was written by Man, not God, who are considered flawed. As for Angelica... I can't formulate an opinion on her, but claims of being dead for 23 hours is outrageous.
This thread gets more complicated by the minute! Witchcraft is an English word. It is not Basque or Spanish, or any other language.
The "practise" of witchcraft can be, and often is,incorporated into many religions, as it does in Wicca. The "practise" is world wide. However, the practise, of itself, has nothing to do with any religious belief. Followers of many religions use witchcraft, the world over; and it may very well be "part" of the religion. But witchcraft can be, and is,practised without any religion at all! I have practised witchcraft for over 70 years; and I don't believe in anything supernatural, I'm an Atheist; or rather what I prefer, a Humanist.
The fact that you're atheist is all fine and good, but Sorgin/a actually translates as Witch in English and if you look at the neighboring languages, they also translate into Witch (like how you'd get Italian Witchcraft and the like). However, when people started translating things like Volva into Witch, they started being erroneous because Seidhr and Witchcraft weren't even similar practices.
The word "witchcraft" cannot be translated into the original Kemetic religion, because there is no definitive difference between magical and religious texts (and medical ones as well). As before Brysing, I explained what I was commenting on was the statement "keep your religion and magic separate". I, as a Kemetic who works with heka, cannot. Nor can anyone who works with heka do so as the religious aspect of it is ingrained into what it is.
Even if called "Egyptian magic", it is incorrect. The terminology and connotations between magic and witchcraft make it difficult and clumsy to use as definitions for heka.

On another note, I'm a bit confused. You said that all peoples practice witchcraft, but somehow witch/witchcraft in Basque isn't an acceptable definition because it doesn't fit an atheistic view of magic? Or am I missing something?
