Wiccans

I think thats the most positive thing I've seen in this thread
thank you

I think one of the most tiresome things about modern Wicca is this Wendy the Good Little Witch crusading. Magic in its purest form is pulling the strings of reality toward an end, be it for "good" or "evil." If magic is limited in any regard, why call it magic? And to suggest that magic itself is biased in either direction along the rigid model of monumental Good and Evil imposed by your deity of choice, how is that different from being a steadfast God Warrior?

Embrace the light but don't deny the dark, or you're just a faux-pagan hypocrite desperate to meet the Christians halfway.

But do you know well enough about Wicca to make that judgement? That may be true in some cases, but it is not something to make a generalization I suppose. Are you saying that most people are bisexual for the same reason?

I don't know enough about Wicca, but I know that some people look for a meaning in their lives, and I have heard of people finding what they are looking for in pagan religions which they didn't find in the other well known monotheist religions.

THANK YOU!
I'm absolutely sick of
simpering weaklings,
unwilling to fully take responsibility
for what they're playing with.

I don't think that being Wiccan is a fad as much as claiming to be when you have no clue what it is or intent to actually find meaning for your life from it. Anyone can go around saying I'm a wiccan and if you tick me off I'll put a spell on you, or people who claim to be satanists just to scare people around them.

Its kinda the same for the bi fad, i don't think people are really bi because its a fad, what the fad is is straight people trying to be bi because its the current thing to be. (and maybe to try to get girls to like you by being gay but not too gay)

Then again i haven't slept in days and I'm doped up on Benadryl so i could be wrong.

Or, it could just be that MOST people have a little
bit of interest in both genders, and the fact that
it's more acceptable right now makes them more
willing to try?

Uh, what was the point of this thread again? Oh right, someone was looking to meet other wiccans here. But why should someone expect a thread to go the way it's meant.

Here? No reason at all.
Kinda beautiful if you ask
me.

I was thinking more on the lines of teen aged people and the experiences I had in school more then adults but I do agree most people are somewhere between straight and gay.

Anyway I have a question about Wiccans, how would you find a group of them in your area if you wanted to meet/talk to because I have to do a report on a non-abrahamic religion.

It's probably MUCH easier to find a Hindu or Buddhist, assuming that you live in a place that has more than a few thousand inhabitants in N. America or Europe. A Wiccan would make an interesting interview, no doubt. But if you are aiming merely to find a follower of a non-Abrahamic religion, the two that I mentioned are likely to be much more numerous in your area.

As far as straight and gay go, it's a false dichotomy. Sexual attraction appears to vary continuously. "Straight" shades into "bisexual" which shades into "homosexual". It's rather like race in many respects, in that it's determined primarily by which group a person chooses to self-identify as, and by which group the culture determines to be fitting.
