@JamesTheMadProphet Witchcraft or wicca, to me is not a religion. It's a way of life, and the way we choose to live, or walk the path. It has to do more with spiritual journey, and empowering yourself. And yes, spells works because all things in the universe have it's own energy and vibration which has been proven scientifically, so we learn to direct our energy in a way that changes the world around us. It's not superstition.
I hope someone will tell me their opinion about this belief of mine. I honestly don't know what Satan is, even though people call me a "Satan Worshipper" and all that junk. I only know many use the name Satan for spreading fear. Is he really evil? And if so, what's evil about him? Blessed Be, Alice. :D
@ItstheChi@ItstheChi All things considered the world, the universe, can be Very scary. Religious faith is equivalent to whistling in the dark or closing your eyes so as not to see; it might make you feel better but completely ignores the issue. Science has demonstrated that it is by far the best tool for understanding reality. Peace out.
@ItstheChi I consider all religions to be symptomatic of social insecurities, all are rooted in fear, be it of death, lonliness, or injustice. Unfortunately reason is rarely effective when dealing with the superstitious; their beliefs are are matter of emotion rather than intellect.
@ItstheChi Hey, actually the second commandment says (paraphrasing) you shall make no image ... for I am a jealous god...; the only reference about neighbors is about bearing false witness and coveting. Blaming a deity for human behaviour is just as nonsensical as blaming unicorns for rainbows;
@JamesTheMadProphet Sounds like you blame God for people's wrongdoing. People who hurt others in God's name commit sin, because the second commandment in the bible says "love your neighbor as you would yourself" and Jesus said "love thy enemy." I have nothing against any religion or faith (I practiced wicca for four years before I stopped believing); you want to be wiccan, shinto, buddhist, go ahead, it's your choice. Hit me back, we might have a fun debate for the yt crowds.
I am a biblical athiest: I will say with total confidence that the psychogod of the bible DOES NOT EXIST! The bible is nothing more than a collection of fables and the delusions of very sick people. Accept reality for what it is and you unlock an infinite universe to explore! The more we learn about the universe the less we will need gods to explain it. What a waste of potential spending your life enslaved to ignorance and fearing a hateful vindictive deity.
@Pilgrim1411 It is obvious you speak from ignorance, early indoctrination I'm guessing. I married a Wiccan woman, in the Wiccan tradition. Monotheist superstitions are by far the most hateful, immoral, and intolerant cults the world has ever known. Never heard of Wiccans flying planes into buildings, torturing people to death, burning people alive, stoning homosexuals to death, declaring war on "the infidels"; your superstition is guilty of all these evils.
@Pilgrim1411 Having read your other comments I now realize that you are a modern religionist and that reason, rationality, and reality are beyond you. Born in 1956 I WAS around during the 70s & 80s; there is NO debate in science as to the veracity of evolution- none! Only religionists like yourself still deny reality. BTW: the earth is NOT the center of everything, nor is it flat. You have my sympathies.
