Can a catholic be Wiccan

sure, why not? seems one can claim to be anything they want these days. I"ve seen those claiming to be a half werewolf, half mermaid, or half demon and half vampire. So why not a baptist buddhist or an atheist anglican, even a wiccan catholic. Catholics have one set of beliefs, wiccans another. They, in some things,are very opposite and mutually exclusive beliefs. Do you belive in one God, a male diety, "our father who art in heaven", and believe that jesus was his son on earth? These are a crucial point to all christian beliefs, including catholicism. Do you believe in multiple gods? Do you believe in resurrection after death or reincarnation? The first is christian the latter pagan. In my humble opinion, if you claim to believe in all of it, then you truely believe in none of it.
Perhaps this might help clear your confusion.

In regards to the witchcraft aspect of this issue... I know practitioners from many religious paths. The question being asked here is "can a catholic be a wiccan", that is a matter of religion, it has nothing to do with casting. If the question was "can a catholic be a magic practitioner" I would have answered differently.

I agree with Linda 100%.

yes, I agree one thousand percent of the way.

A thousand percent meaning, you persuaded me in your successful persuasion. I see.

YES, because I am, god give me my powers and god's son was one of the biggest Wiccans of all time, if you think about what he could do.

I agree with Lark on this. I am wiccan and im trying to be object towards this but its hard. Some of us wiccans are full on dedicated to wicca and to have someone who is confused or likes both religions and just combine them is....not smart. (only word i can think of thats nt offenseive.) Wiccans stirctly believe in Summerland and recarnation adn the Green man and Spirit. Catholics do not bellieve in any of those. SO thats how it is a contradiction. So maybe you just neeed to go on a retreat and find what you turely believe in.

Why do you need to label yourself? If you want to follow Wicca but believe in Jesus and all that then that's your own thing

Just do what you feel is right and you don't need a label for it

I believe in God and all that so I refuse to label myself a Christian/Catholic nor a Wiccan

It doesn't make you a bad person for not following just one religion because the base of all religion is just be a good person

I really appreciate you saying this and supporting it with details because I had the same question. You helped me understand how I can be both, Thank you

Hello, I'm Catholic and I practice witchcraft. Like what other progress said before, mixing them is kinda not really possible. As for the whole trinitarian wiccan thing, that's not Catholic, it's Christian, but not Catholic(especially if you worship Mary) but you do you!
