It’s almost like this Wicca shit doesn’t even work.

January 3, 2007

It’s almost like this Wicca shit doesn’t even work. I’ve spent so much money on goddamned candles and incense and all other kind of whatnot. The worst was the dagger and silver plates, not cheap. Not to mention the cuts and other injuries sustained from sacrificing cats and shit. I just don’t undertand, I got all the instructions from one of those girls who dyes her hair black and listens to metal. I mean, she would know right?

I hope so, because this is the third time I’ve been to her and she keeps giving me more and more things to do. Now, apparently, I need to stand north of the pentagram and the candles and turn around three times counter-clockwise and then dump the chicken blood on my head. She only tells me what I’m doing wrong afterwards. She’s not that great with directions. Sometimes I wonder if she’s leading me wrong on purpose. I Don’t know why she would do that though. I apologized for calling her a witchy cunt at the prom in front of everyone.

So anyway, here we go. Candles: lit. Pentagram: drawn. Chicken: ungh, ungh, decapitated. Standing: North. Turn: three times to the left.

Okay, all done. Now I need to find my EPT to see if the damn ceremony worked this time. Getting unpregnant should not be this hard.

    Everyone with any kind of basic intelligence knows that Wiccans don’t sacrifice animals. So either you’re a dumbass for making fun of them for doing so, or you’re a dumbass for thinking they do in the first place.

    Why are you making fun of people for having faith? Does it harm you? Are Wiccans coming up to you and bugging you about it? Is it somehow more prevalent in your town that Christianity?

    “It’s almost like this Christianity shit doesn’t even work. I’ve spent so much money on goddamned bibles and church donations and all other kind of whatnot. The worst was the deluxe study bible and silver cross, not cheap. Not to mention the knee bruises and other injuries sustained from praying and shit. I just don’t undertand, I got all the instructions from one of those preachers who wears robes and goes on mission trips. I mean, he would know right?”

      Hi I just read these comments. I’m a Christian, and I have a minor in World Religion. I enjoy the study of many religions and recently studied Wicca as part of my studies on religion.

      The adherents appear to be ex-Christians for the most part who either did not have a good personal experience in church, or the doctrines just did not “ring true” for them personally. Other reasons people leave is that they would rather participate in the worship ritual than to just sit and watch it. Further, churches used to offer pot-lucks and permit people to help more, but more and more churches are hiring professionals in every direction, leaving the lay-person out. Personal morality is another problem – the church snubs everyone based on scriptures that teach one thing or another is a sin – Jesus never snubbed anyone, but welcomed sinners, fixed their problems and loved them unconditionally, unlike many church members.

      So Wicca is really more than just a re-creation of an ancient religion, it is a grass roots type group that reaches out in genuine care to others in small group format.

      Unfortunately, I also learned a few negatives about Wicca:

      1) It did not exist prior to Gerald Gardner’s invention of it; Scholars can not prove that he received anything from an elderly group of siblings who passed down an unbroken chain of Celtic religion from the stone or Bronze Age; Scholars did, in fact, debunk the faith in many areas based on inaccurate interpretations of archeology (for example, no symbol used by Wiccans has a sure meaning from an archeological viewpoint – no ancient person left notations on what a spiral meant), and Gardner’s use of Freemasonry, and the degree system is clearly borrowed from a different group.

      2) Margaret Murray’s writings on the religion were proven false by her own contemporaries – scholars who worked at her university where she was a professor of Egyptology; Murray had no knowledge of Celtic Antiquities and when professors who did have knowledge of European history looked into her thesis, it was clear that she made many mistakes. She lost accountability when later scholars revisited her work, only to discover that on top of accidental mistakes, she deliberately mis-reported witch-trial records and skewed data in order to gain converts to her new proposal of a Bronze Age or Stone Age religion in Britain.

      3) Some scholars do believe that the lost Hebrew Tribes were the ones who actually moved north to become the Druids – these tribes were exiled because they combined Hebraic rituals and festivals (8 festivals that match the Wiccan festivals, required worship at full and new moon, days the begin at sundown), with Caananite worship of a Goddess, moon, and sun as deities. Ancient Hebrew most closely matches Ancient Irish and Welsh as languages, they are so similar it can’t be a coincidence. Further the Druids embraced Christianity when it came and were first to offer their Druid Colleges as the first Christian churches. Any Freshman College Classics student knows that European (as well as Greek, Roman, Maya and other) tribes embraced many deities, but never combined them into one God and one Goddess – this concept was completely foreign to ancient peoples. Unifying all abilities into one deity was a purely Mosaic idea, which separated Moses and the Hebrews from all other world religions. In Europe each tribe had their own pantheon – there was no sense of unity in what pantheon to worship either.

      Modern Wicca is a fun fantasy religion – a “what if” type of thing, but it is not a historical religion that combines New Age beliefs from the 1970′s hippie movement with Celtic fantasy themes, and Hebraic Festival requirements. It is also a way to personify science with characatures – to make the scientific/inanimate elements like earth, wind, sky, fire, water, have “personalities” – a sense that “if” they could speak, this is what they would say.

      It draws people to two general moral rules, that have conterparts in every religion, including Christianity (the Golden Rule matches the Wiccan Rede; The Three–Fold Law of Return matches Christ’s statement “you will sew what you reap”…

      And most of the symbols in Wicca (chalice, double edged blade, pentacle, cakes and ale) have their Biblical counterparts as well. It is as if someone took the best of many religions, made them generic and now presents them as a new and modern faith. Traditional religions would frown on this, however from an anthropological standpoint, this may well be how religions have taken shape through the millennia.

      The negative about Wicca is that it is made up. The positive is, it gives people a fantasy outlet to get away from the world.

      It is more likely

        Ok, some points I’d like to clarify. I’m not trying to insult you or anything but I felt offended at some point…

        >>I have a minor in World Religion.
        I have a mayor in Psychology. I guess we are both educated people.

        >>1) It did not exist prior to Gerald Gardner’s invention of it
        Indeed. We are a new religion, that tries to reconstruct ancient beliefs, but mainly, reinterprets them and creates new ways to approach our Gods. Anyone who claims we are the “old Religion” is a fluffy bunny.
        BTW Christianity did not exist before Christ, and that does not make it less valid, right?

        >>2) Margaret Murray’s writings on the religion were proven false by her own contemporaries
        Of course! The days of Pre-Modern Wicca are over. Murray was a seriously bad scientist, manipulating evidence and using the marvelous poisoning the well trick.

        >>3) Some scholars do believe that the lost Hebrew Tribes were the ones who actually moved north to become the Druids
        Sounds like a very interesting theory and I have to say it is logical in a certain way. Still…who cares? We are not Celts or Druids. We are Wiccans. So, if Hebrew tribes were the founders of druidism nothing changes. Humans change as their cultures evolve, it is natural and expected. Migration created new religions all the time, look at the Egyptian Aset and the Greco-Roman Isis. Aset herself might be a reinterpretation of Yemaya or Ishtar.

        >>Modern Wicca is a fun fantasy religion
        This pisses me off…mainly because a cosmic zombie saving my soul form some sin I did not commit is not fantasy? I mean, please. Don’t insult other people and expect them to shut up.

        >>but it is not a historical religion that combines New Age beliefs from the 1970’s hippie movement with Celtic fantasy themes, and Hebraic Festival requirements.
        Yes and no. If you have a minor as you say perhaps you could know the hippie movement happened in the 60′s, dear. And indeed, there was a lot of ceremonial magic involved in the creation of Gardner’s wica coven, but we are not New Agers. Some of us might incorporate some of those practices, but our religion has a very clear set of beliefs based in the idea that Nature is sacred and that only we are responsible for our actions and consequences. The Celtic thing is not Wiccan, as you might like to read here http://www.clannada.org/wicca.php
        I might also suggest you reading Triumph of the Moon by Hutton or Drawing down the Moon by Adler.

        >>It is also a way to personify science with characatures
        That is called animism, for your information.

        >>It draws people to two general moral rules, that have conterparts in every religion, including Christianity (the Golden Rule matches the Wiccan Rede; The Three–Fold Law of Return matches Christ’s statement “you will sew what you reap”…
        Of course.
        But….Wiccans have actually 5 general ideas revolving around ethics and the Divine. UEW enlists them as the Wiccan Rede, the Ethic of self responsibility, the Law of Return, the Ethic of constant improvement and the Ethic of Attunement, or “the act of becoming in-tune with divinity is the purpose behind the majority of ritual.” (cited from UEW website). But even when other Wiccans don’t call them such, they follow them. All religions follow the same basic principles, so I don’s see how this is some sort of negative argument against Wicca. If it is it should also be a negative argument against all religions.

        >>And most of the symbols in Wicca (chalice, double edged blade, pentacle, cakes and ale) have their Biblical counterparts as well.
        Because they are symbols in many religions, and this is also no argument against Wicca.
        But back to the point: Wicca is highly influenced by Jung’s theory of Archetypes. We analytical psychologists know that symbols are expressions of archetypes, and each archetype might express itself diferently. For example, the womb might be represented by a chalice, a cave, the ocean, the grave.

        >>Traditional religions would frown on this, however from an anthropological standpoint, this may well be how religions have taken shape through the millennia.
        Indeed. That is the wisest way to see it.

        >>The positive is, it gives people a fantasy outlet to get away from the world.
        Again this bothers me.
        All religions have their share of fantasy: virgin mothers, holy children, divine messengers…you name it.
        The point is that the positive side of Wicca, as of any religion, is that it is a path to develop personal spirituality in whichever way one needs.
        I apologize if I sounded rude, but as I said, don’t insult and expect to go unscathed. I think you are biased in some of your comments. If you have a minor, at least try not to put your belief before your scientific criteria. That is exatly what Murray did and it sucked.

        Now…on to the article…I absolutely LOLd.

      • July 7, 2010 1:14 am

        All religions are made up. Look at the Christian religion. They took the holidays from the “Pagan/Goddess” religion and melded them into the Christian religion so that there would be more of a chance that the Pagans would follow. And, just because Wicca is a man-made religion, and so it Christianity, does not mean that we Pagans who are non-Wiccans do not still follow the path. We do. We follow the oldest Religion because before it was a masculine religion, there was the Goddess Religion. In defense of Wicca, to which I am not a part of simply because Wicca is a masculine name and I am not masculine (Wicce is feminine), Wiccans are serious in their practices of honoring a Goddess and God. Other Pagans such as me, follow the Goddess Religion and recognize the God as Her consort. Wicca is not a fantasy. Wiccans, as well as other practitioners of the Pagan religion, take our religion very seriously. I also do not follow Wicca because Wicca is a masculine name and I refuse to follow yet another religion named after the masculine.

    It’s worthwhile to make fun of ANY faith. Yes, all faith hurts us, all of us. It is the cause of prejudice and war. People spend money on nothing. It causes anxiety in the young. It’s a delusion on a MASSIVE scale. Yes, even though “everyone” does it, it’s still wrong. Your a terrible person for having faith in that which is untrue.

    Congratulations.

      Well first off you seem like one of the annoying atheists that treat everyone that believes in something like an idiot, so congratulations your belief has led you to prejudice. On that note faith does not cause these things, idiots who need an excuse to hate cling to religion using it and twisting to their own needs to explain a hate they probably can’t explain themselves. As for war, well that’s fanatics, people who are probably a bit more then a little unstable and taking the excuse to hate one step further an excuse to kill. As for spending money on nothing, well everyone does that even without religion “causing” it as you say everyone does that. Anxiety in the young? I’m assuming you mean teenagers then yes? Everything causes them anxiety because everything seems equally large and imposing and utterly life changing at that age.

      Congratulations for being a hypocritical (your lack of religion has obviously made you prejudiced against it) prejudiced atheist.Also some wonderfully flawed logic there, blaming the tool and not the hand that wields it.

    And believe me, there’s a lot with Wicca which is absolutely ripe with what we call “teh funny.” But there ain’t no dead chickens.

    the idea was that the pregnant girl was so ignorant of wiccan practices that she would go through all of it and never realize that she was being mocked by the person she was asking for help, and wasn’t even performing anything close to wiccan magick. In my story the pregnant girl is the dumb one.

    Red said this on January 3rd, 2007 at 7:32 pm…

    – Of course, Red isn’t prejudiced at all. He just thinks religious people (i.e., those who don’t have enough faith to believe that everything that exists is merely a result of impersonal matter plus time plus chance) are terrible.

    Henslow -

    I wouldn’t call it predjuce so much as “aggressively opinionated” (lol)… I just get frustrated when I am bombarded with religion, and people tip toeing through the tulips to avoid hurting peoples feelings about it, or pissing people off. The big problem are the people who take it to seriously; they know the words but they don’t know the music…

    There is a fatal flaw in your perception if you can’t take a harsh critisizm. This is especially true of Christians and Muslums. So Muhammad was in a few Dutch cartoons, big deal. This comes down to a “if you can’t laugh at yourself, who can” sort of deal.

    Gods are made in the image of man. Don’t get too wrapped up in it all or you become blinded by your own stupidity and lose perspective because of religious pride (something you’ll goto hell for, ask your local padre) and ego.

    I am whole heartedly against religion because it is simply first and foremost a social organizer, as it where. There is us, and then there are them. It is a means of control, and in the Christian world, this is done through fear. “If you don’t follow God, you will burn in hell for ever and ever.” Religion does not teach morals, if you need to be TAUGHT killing people is bad, there is something wrong with you. I’m not against religion as a social ritual, but philosophies are adept at that, and they don’t segregate (in fact, take Taoism and Confusionism, they play Beautifly off one another).

    Ever read about the Salem Witch Trials? The girls faked the whole thing because of the fear of negative religious and social reprocussions. And then the towns people used it to their advantages to slaughter one another.

    (not directed at Henslow or anyone in particluar)

    Can you beleive that Grand Cannyon tour guides can’t talk about the age of it because it upsets a bunch of fundimentalists? Give me a fucking break. Fuck your supposed “rights” for your views to be respected, what about my views of science? You forcing the exemption of that fact is disrespectful of my science. Bla! Bla bla, bla bla bla…

    The whole damn thing is stupid (religion, that is. And any and all of its tight wad followers). Wow, I did NOT mean to go this far… If you get anything out of the above, more power to you, but its all just a bunch of idea fragments, so feel free to ignore it. I could write a book…

    rligion in itself is fucked up. all it does is lead to biullshit bitching. science is much more satisfying when it comes to origins and facts of life. religion is only there for those who are in need of hope. i have hope. i would rather listen to truth from a science book than any religious book in existance

    This was REALLY funny.

    See, some Pagans DO have a sense of humor! I was upon a time, a co-owner of a Pagan-oriented store and one of the primary liturgists and teachers in a rather large Wiccan group. And the person who sent this link to me is very well-versed in Paganism, as well. And before anyone else starts carping about how it would have been funnier if it was more accurate, the innaccuracy is one of the things that makes it so side-splitting! The idea of the girl so completely ignorant of Wicca and so utterly stupid as to keep going back to this person who is obviously getting revenge and laughing at her, feeding her every Hollywood stereotype of witchcraft and magic and throwing everything she can think of into the pot, ranging from Santeria to Voodoun to Ceremonial Magic, and the other girl is swallowing it hook, line, and sinker. Even with little niggling doubts begining, she still goes through the ridiculous rituals to the letter. I’m sure that if this story continued, the next time she went back (and she would…) the ritual would involve yet more money, yet more difficult and dangerous manuevers, and yet more revolting contact with various effluvia, and would probably amp up to include public humiliation. Unless the goth girl has a hidden mini-Webcam set up in the ritual location, in which case the public humiliation is already be well underway, if as yet undiscovered.

    Before anyone jumps all over me about “Harm None”, no, it wouldn’t be funny if it was ACTUALLY happening, it is the twist at the end, and the idea that anyone would fall for it that is what is funny.

    Thanks!

    Came over from tcoverride.blogspot and proceeded to enjoy the hilarity of not only the joke but the commentary of those who (a) don’t get the joke, (b) want to edit the joke, (c) extrapolate profound meanings of life from the joke, (d) want a different religion to be joked about, and (e) even those who also get the joke. It’s a joke. Look, wanton destruction of any sentient creature for the sake of one’s own vaunted sense of devotion, gotten away with only because the sentient creature is not a human, is just flat out wastefully cruel. But the joke, it’s funny. More please.

    this is funny, funny, funny! the story itself is perfect. the people that ‘didnt get it’ should re-read the story; but this time they should consider the title “revenge of the witchy cunt”… maybe they will clue in now. but i doubt it.

    Ok, this SICKENS me. Do you practice wicca? I highly doubt it if you’re making FUN of the faith. If you do not practice it, you cannot make fun of it, or say it’s satanism etc. And what was that crap about the girl with the dyed black hair? Just because someone is gothic doesn’t mean they’re wiccan and vice versa. You took our faith and mocked it, no real wiccan would do that to another faith, just as no REAL christian would do that to antoher wiccan. If this makes you laugh, you shouldn’t be. This is a serious matter, first it’s a couple of jokes then pagan supply shops are being burned down. We do not sacrifice animals or people or anything. Jokes like this lead to the misconceptions that we DO.

    I was wondering do you know of any levitation spells? I have been working really hard, and have been spending alot of money too. I bought this sword for like Three Hundred dollars and the friggin metal is already tarnishing on it. The dude at the shop.. well the same dude who is helping me with my levitation spells said thats becuse I have to cover it in urine and leave it under a pile of cow dung for three nights while reciting an Enochian passage durring the sunrise and sunset. The Enochian passage is taken from the anagram AZUR wich transcribes to
    Ah-eh-Ur-Reh. I found it to equil to the number 714 after taking certain astrological considarations connectin my birth number to its vibrational feild.

    PS. My roomate told me to make sure there is alot of room under my feet when I try to levitate becuse it will give my auric field more time to build momenum against gravity as I chant. I think he is right. I am going to try the roof of my house first

    Look, all I ask is that you take a listen. Stop for a minute and look beyond. you seem to stop at what you can see. So tell me. If you walk into a dark room at midnight do you feel uneasy. Im not asking you to confess you believe in a higher power, but do you feel a unaturalness. I have been in several so called “haunted houses.” And still I have not found a difference. However When I place myself in a highly spiritual speritual situation, I find a significant expericance. If one was tp truley call upon the spirit of Aradia(or any other higher power) you would see the truth. controvert it all you like the truth remains. I have seen what I have seen. You can deny all you want, but i know what I saw. Spirit means nothing to a blind man, and everything to a man who can see. What can the “Man” see? I am not willing nor can I tell you. However, What I know fills me with a joy that cannot be replaced. The denial of others is only an amusment to me. i can only hope you are able to see more than that. For Aradia looks kindly on those who see beyond the exterior.

    I’ve been a spirtualist for many years. You don’t need candles to cast a spell. They are meant to help you visualize your prayers to the goddess, that’s all. Spells are nothing more than prayers. And if you are sacrificing cats (which I think you are joking or just stupid… because Wiccans would not harm an animal intentionally) then it is no wonder your spells aren’t working… that’s karmic law. Wiccans make no sacrifices to themselves or any other living or dead creature. May the goddess bless you. That’s right, I said bless you. A true wiccans wishes no ill or harm upon anyone, not even those who are ill informed. We just want to live in peace with the rest of society. We aren’t perfect, but we aren’t here to hate those who lie about us. To dispel the rumours and stereotypes, yes, hate those who tell them, no. Or at least we shouldn’t. I have known some vengeful Wiccans, and I am consistenly reminding them that we are not to harm. But how far do you go, you know? We’re only human, just like everyone else.

    Who ever you are that says “this wicca shit doesn’t even work”. YOU need to read. It specifically states in the Wicca religion that NO harm shall be done. Stop cutting cats , and killing chickens, I myself am not wiccan, but it sounds as though the girl you are going to isn’t either. Do your own research for a change and don’t call women cunts.

    I mean, it’s a crazy thought, but have you considered the fact that if someone DID really sacrifice cats and cover themselves in chicken blood, they wouldn’t make it public to the world? I imagine it’s not the sort of thing that you’d go around telling people:

    “Hey Jake, I totally sacrificed your cat yesterday!”
    “No way! Because I sacrificed your goldfish!”
    “Ha! Who would’ve thought?”

    Those who take the “Dawkins” approach, of course, convenienty ignore that the damage done by atheists- particularly that noteworthy duo of Stalin and Mao -in the 20th Century has been, individually, on the order of 2000 timees worse than that achieved by the worst fanatics of the Inquisition. Indeed, the only force more humanly destructive than Mao was the Black Death. Dawkins sheep will immediately and feebly attempt to point out that those were the actions of misguided fanatics, irresponsible fascists and fundamentalists. But while this is arguably so, what is it that tbey are decrying and using to broad brush others?

    Just to respond to Trystn, I’m not so sure if you’re looking at he right place for the story of the deadliest causes of humanity. If we look more over time than in a short period, Mao, and even the Bubonic Plague, haven’t been quite as mercilessly killing as the United-States, inside their borders and out. Just look at the number of gun related deaths in the U.S., which is close to 12 thousand per year, and since the statistique seems to have been taken as an average of over quite few years, and whithout counting the number of people that U.S. troops kill in their “peace-bringing” operations, you can easily see that THAT is the bigger cause of death, if looked at over a few years. Yes, Mao, Hitler, The Bubonic Plague, Mussolini, and most of the other world’s major killing crisises have brought a lot of death, but probably not quite as close as the blood soaked lands of “America” have seen.

Hardly anything that you spoke of has anything at all to do with Wicca in the first place, and I really hope that the person who was telling you what to do was fucking with you, because if they weren’t, then they are just as stupid. Anyway, maybe before you disgrace yourself anymore, and make yourself feel any less intelligent than you already should, and apparently are, why don’t you actually study up on Wicca a little bit before you try to practice it further, but in the mean time, enjoy the chicken blood dumb-ass. Oh, and if you were serious about being pregnant, please, just get an abortion, it will be much easier for you, and will prevent you from reproducing, so everybody wins, and, just to be safe, in the future, keep your legs closed, please.

    The joke was funny. What’s better is the people taking it seriously. Especially the Wiccans going *”gasp! Shock! We dont sacrifice chickens! How dare you sacrifice chickens?”* My dears, the author KNOWS Wiccans dont sacrifice chickens. The author also KNOWS that tools and rituals dont make a witch. The main character in the story (which, this may suprise you, is fictional) is an idiot cheerleader-type girl who called a gothic girl a ‘witch cunt’. It’s doubtful the gothic girl in the story is a witch at all… She’s just playing on the cheerleader’s superstitions, stereotyping and prejudices to get her revenge. Good gods, I cant believe there’s people out there who are too thick to get this. How do you self proclaimed Wiccans expect to follow the ‘craft of the wise’ if you’re not even perceptive enough to tell when someone’s joking and when they’re being serious? Fluffy bunnies.. Oi.

    Wiccans are a bunch of ignorant and gullible fucks. Most of them are so dull that the fact they’re a Wiccan is the only thing that they even have to talk about (go ahead and look at the posts from the so-called “real” Wiccans and see how offended they are at someone merely _joking_ about the ridiculous amount of materialism involved in their fake trade). Wiccans are just another group of people to market useless crap to. They’re like a more benign version of the idiot that stays up all night ordering George Foreman grills and ShamWows — instead the tools of their faith are a bunch of garbage from a “herbalist” and fishnet outfits from Hot Topic.

    Lol uh, Wiccans do not sacrifice animals, you’ve taken the wrong path. FIRST of all you have to connect with the God and Goddess or any deity that represents them, OK connect with nature, give animals love, Wicca isn’t all about spells – I’ve learned that, spellwork comes after you’ve worked with the divine, and that usually takes awhile, have belief, visualize, build energy, use herbs and stones w/e, just lighting a candle, drawing a pentacle and putting chicken blood on your head isn’t gonna do it. not the right path..

    This is for anyone searching on Wicca and looking at this, I’m in the process myself and I’ve learned quite a bit in the few months of studying, though I’m not really Wiccan yet, I’m an eclectic Pagan. and for those who mock Wiccans and Pagans, read and learn, open your minds.

    Also, don’t ever sacrifice a Cat, it’s a magickal creature!

    I think you’re an idiot, Wiccans do not sacrifice any living creatures, we use herbs for our magick and the will of the God and Goddess to choose what it right, we believe in the rede “An Ye Harm None, Do As You will” the reason your craft isn’t working, is simply because the fact you didn’t follow the rede, and in Wicca, you can’t kill an innocent being such as a fetus because it is harming a living thing brought by YOUR ignorant choices….. There may be some herbs that could help IDK, but DON’T use the craft unless you KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING…

    For you all..the first rule of Wicca is do no harm…and most of us live by what we put out comes back to us 3 fold…We do not use blood of any animal and for those of us who have walked the life for 20 plus years the religion is very rewarding and having an open mind would not hurt anyone on this list..the story was cute…the following arguments were at best narrow minded bigots who can not tell their ass from a hole in the ground.

    I love how some people always assume all wiccans take thing’s like this seriously and get offended by it.. I fount it funny!! Perhaps it’s because I see it for what it’s supposed to be (and it is not “making fun” of wiccans): it appears to be a joke about how stereotypical some things/people are… I was not offended at all..

    Anyone who knows about wicca knows the truth about it.. so it doesn’t really matter that this story doesn’t heed to the “rules” of wicca, because it’s fictional.. It’s not real.. And it amused me very much! :)

    I don’t get offended by ignorant people or stories like these because I find it utterly pointless to waste my time getting angry about something so harmless…

    Just to sum up my point: I’m wiccan, and I’m not offended because it’s fictional and funny, so there it is.. I guess I’m done now.. :)

  108. December 28, 2012 7:07 pm
