    Are Atheists Happy?

    Ignorance is bliss I guess. I can't go through life without having a glue as to the meaning of life. I hope, for my sake, that all my good deeds don't go unrewarded. I like life and I hope nonexistence doesn't come after I die. That would really suck.

    Free will

    In the Wiccan faith we take all responsibility for our actions. If you do something, you can't blame it on the devil or anyone else. If you shoot someone, it is because you choose to do it. God and Goddess did not tell you to do it or pull the trigger for you. You did it of your own free will. I...

    Is Jesus a Mythical Character?

    In Wicca, we are polytheistic. We believe in a goddess and a god. Out goddess in Mother Natrue, the equivalent to the Father in Christianity. The god is the Son and Hunter. I believe that Jesus Christ is the the god from our faith, although we don't call him that. Do you think it's possible for...

    Do any Christians disagree with this...

    In the Wiccan faith, there is no Heaven or Hell. First their is reincarnation, then eventually, all souls will come to reside in the Summerland. Punishment for your deeds will happen there, but other than that, everyone goes to the same place regardless.

    For those who believe that only Christians go to heaven...

    Ok, maybe not sacred texts, but oral traditions that are passed down. Eventually someone wrote that down too. I can e-mail you a copy if you like. My coven has that in our BOS.

    Understanding Hell

    HoldemDB9, I agree with you fully. I use to be a Roman-Catholic myself until I finally started to open my mind and learn. I now whole-heartily follow the path of Wicca.

    For those who believe that only Christians go to heaven...

    Logician, you have an really good point. In Wicca, we believe that any path is a good path, as long as you believe in something. We have a sacred text called the Wiccan Way in which it says that there is no one path to the Summerland (aka Heaven). I suggest you stop arguing with Christians. They...

    For those who believe that only Christians go to heaven...

    Muffled, won't you be surprised when you don't go to heaven, rather you join us in the Summerland. Fear not though, the Great Mother Goddess will still greet you as a friend with open arms and we will all rejoice with your presence.

    The most ANNOYING misconception about YOUR faith?

    I know, it just hard for me right now. My family is Roman-Catholic and they don't approve of what I am doing. My mom and dad are cool with it, just not everyone else is. I try to explain what Wicca is really about and they don't even wanna listen. They tell me that I am evil and I will pollute...

    The most ANNOYING misconception about YOUR faith?

    For the time being, I wear my pentacle under my shirt and I practice my rituals alone. I understand the fact that people ::cough, cough, Christians, cough:: are very close minded and often misinformed. I wish you all the best and may the Mother Moon Goddess bring enlightenment to us all.

    What about the 7-day creation story?

    Wiccans tend to go with the more modern "Big Bang" theory. Godhead created the universe in one grand explosion.

    The most ANNOYING misconception about YOUR faith?

    You think you have it bad? I am a Wiccan and people ask me why I worship the devil. I get the whole Satanist speech from Christians all the time. The problem is a lack of education in people. Once people hear something, it is engraved into their brain...forever. The best part is, Wiccans don't...

    Legalize Marijuana?

    In Wicca we have one rule. "If it hurt none, do as you will" The question is, dose a little pot really hurt anyone?

    Understanding Hell

    It doesn't matter anyway. Nobody is going to hell. Eventually, we will all come to rest in the Summerland. The Mother Moon Goddess and the Earthly Father God will greet us and our destiny lies there. It will be their choice on what joys/punishment the Summerland grants us. - Wicca / Book of Shadows

    Has anyone been through something like this? (Beware, long story)

    Let me tell you something, Christians are morons some times. People of the Wiccan faith, in my life experience, tent to be a bit more enlightened. I use to be Roman-Catholic and I can tell you first hand, I was brought up to believe ONLY Catholics are right and ALL other faiths are completely...
