How did us humans come about on Earth in Wicca? I heard there was quite a few things witches believed in about how humans were created. But the only actual story I've heard so far is the whole "evolution" theory. How do you guys think us humans came about?
Wicca is a very eclectic religion, so your beliefs are most of the time dependent on either the tradition your in (and if that doesn't hold a specific belief on creation), or your personal beliefs.
Most Wiccans are reverent of the Goddess and the God, though most see the Goddess (in all forms) as the creatrix of everything along with the help of her divine counterpart, the God (consort, son).
@EisKora - So, what do you mean by Goddess created everything with her consort? How did she make us? That's what I'm wondering, I know she made everything, I just wanna know how we came about and all.
A word of advice.
Never try to ask or explain such a topic to someone incompetent.
No offense to anyone and I am not calling any one stupid, but I have tried to explain the theory of evolution to incompetent people and it dos not work.
I believe in a system of creation and evolution.
" something is created and it is capable of surviveing then it progresses to a higher ( so to say )level and so earth is like a game with slight influens from a deity. Or like a lab with billions of both failed and suxsesful tests."
But that is my opinion formulated by me.
The creation of life cannot be explained in a forum like this.It would take at least one book,if not many! Take it for granted that all life begins with two single cells coming together and "fusing". And that is how it happened in origin;in the sea;many,many millions of years ago. And that is ALL life! From an oak tree to a butterfly.
I think HaynesGurl is asking not for scientific garble, but cultural legend. Similar to Christianities idea that man was made from dust and women from Adams rib. Each religion or culture tends to have it's own story on how the world came about.
I think EisKora is correct. Wicca is comprised of many different paths so pinpointing one story may be difficult. The only story of creation I've seen was written by Silver RavenWolf...which I won't post.
And i think the god created adam from the dust and blast in adam's body piece of his soul. We are all going to dust too, we'll die and they'll put us in the earth and the our souls will return to their god.

@Silvershade - That was extremely rude of you. I believe in evolution, yes, but the idea that we came from monkeys or apes or whatever doesn't make sense. If they evolved, then how come their still here? If there was something wrong with them when they "evolved" into humans, then how come the ones that didn't evolve stay alive; and didn't die out? Explain that to me, and I will be eternally grateful.
