Wicca

[SaveMe420]

I make up my own meditation rituals. Go outside and get stoned at midnight while you are conducting a ritual. It helps to get you in touch with the spiritual side. Native Americans used it for that purpose plus other things.

You are not a true wiccan if you actually beleive that.

Most people who say they are Pagen or practice Wicca are not. It seems to be a trendy thing now days to do that stuff. And while im just guessing here, I don't think any TRUE Wicca or Pagen people would have an Internet connection or be registered to a stoner web site.

Why not internet connection...and you are right..a "true" pagen or wiccan sees no need or desire for any type of drug or alchohol..what is your understanding of this religion

Anyone Practice Wicca?

i have been for the past 2 years,

I've been studying for maybe the last year or so, really heavy only the last few months. you come accross many people who claim to be wiccan but really ddont know ANYTHING factual about it . As I am finding out now as I read these threads . lol...its funny how ignorent and just plain dumb some people are..lol..dont you think its entertaining.

could you please tell me what "wicca" is ive never heard of it??!!

It is a beautiful belief that concentrated on mind over matter...."I think therefore I am" type things. Its to complex or I would get into it but its something you need to come to your very own understanding with. IT IS NOT "WITCHCRAFT".

I used to practice Wicca, but I've learned so much, and as a result changed so much that I can't really call it Wicca any longer. I'd still say it's a Pagan religion, but I don't follow any particular teachings, I just do what feels right.

and that my friends is a true wiccan....if what you "feel is right" is never harmful.

okay witch craft I prefer to stay away.. some people I knew practiced that stuff and they both ended up slashing their thrists... pretty sad really

then they werent wiccan. Know facts before you judge. Being wiccan ...a good wiccan...would have saved their lives...not destroyed them. Its not witchcraft...theres your first mistake. Its all about energies, grounding, doing good, loving this earth and our Lady. Always remembering the three fold law and the power of free will. If your friends were screwing with someones free will, they will pay for it three times stronger. Karma baby...Karma.

7 posts in a row? Damn, Saveme. Anyway, it's really annoying when people of any religion go around pointing saying "He's not wiccan because a wiccan wouldn't do that. I however do everything BY THE BOOK and therefore am a TRUE wiccan" Im not wiccan. Im too religiously confused to make up my mind right now. But that's one of the things that pisses me off about almost all religions, the fact that if you go outside the lines a bit, you are no longer considered "a true member of that religion". Take all the christians who have sex before marriage. Does this truly mean they're not christian? No, it means they have slightly varying belifs then the typical christian. If you really were wiccan, I believe you would realize that people can have slightly varying beliefs and still be wiccan. -points- You are just one of those wiccan wannabes. Only you're the worse then most because you're elitist about it. As little as I know about wiccan, I do know it is an open-minded religion, and elitism involves being very much closed-minded.

Just my two dollars,

PS.. You said doing what you feel is right makes you a true wiccan, why then are those who decide to make variations to the typical wiccan philosophy.. such as getting stoned for rituals.. make them a trendy non-wiccan? Shouldn't that make them MORE wiccan... they are doing what they feel is right and it surely isn't hurting anyone.

Ah, I apologize. I didn't mean to come off as a dick, which, upon re-reading my post, I realize I did. It's just you contradicted yourself. You called TheSanityAssassin a "True Wiccan" merely because he does what he feels is right as long as it's not harmful. Well... what if he's going out at midnight practicing his rituals whilst stoned just as NancyRenee, the not real wiccan girl is? Just wondering. Enlighten me, maybe I've got the wrong idea here. ^.^

naw encatuse i was thinking that too when i read those posts. you just said it how it is yo.
the term is "eclecetic" i think. the great thing about wicca is that there really isnt one concrete way of doing it by the book because there is no book!
