Hey, I'm obviously Cloverkat13. Clover for short, or even Kat.
I'm new to this site, and also to witchcraft in general. Ever since I've heard about it when I was younger, I've been at least a little interested, but it hasn't been until recently that I've started investigating more into it. This site seems perfect for learning more, and possibly deciding to convert. I'm currently Christian, but Wicca doesn't seem all too different, other than being more open and honoring nature too, along with allowing women more rights within the religion. If anything, I would love to be able to sorta combine them.
It may be just wishful thinking of a curious teenager, but I hope I can incorporate at least a few little things into my life. Magick just seems so fascinating and, well, enchanting. Beautiful to say the least.
Tips are welcomed, and I'm always up for a philisophical conversation. Or a conversation of almost any kind. I hope to have great times here, and make some friends.
Oh, if you wanna find me elsewhere, this is also my username for youtube and deviantart.

There is nothing to stop you using magic spells. However, Christian and Wicca are totally opposite beliefs. If you believe that Jesus was God-made-man then you are a Christian. If you do not believe it, then you are a Pagan/Wiccan. You cannot be both!

thanks for understanding. If you look at the basics, you will find quite a few similarities.

Brysing


I get what your saying Brysing.

That is a Christian belief that falls under the Christian religion.

Just like the Christian belief that Jesus was the Son of God, while the Jewish belief is that Jesus was a prophet. You can't believe the Christian belief and be Jewish.

The same as what Brysing keeps saying over and over again about Christian and Pagan. You can't be both.

However, there is nothing to stop a Christian also believing in magic, and using magic. Most witches will accept Jesus as a wise and very learned (for those days!) man. They just don't believe he was God-made-man. Most of the Christian beliefs have very little to do with Jesus. Much more to do with the mixture of Faiths according to the Nicene Creed, and the teachings of St Paul. (Saul of Tarsus).
