Wicca and PAganism (witchcraft) a sin or not?

I am a witch, i study witchcraft and magick. I am wiccan and pagan.

Many of my friends in the past have called me devil worshipper. I just want to know, only nothing anyvody says is going to change the way i think about my religion, is Paganism and Wicca wrong??? is it worshipping satan (who by the way was made up by christians) is magick turning beauftiful flowers into dust, spreading plague ect...
To you, is that what magick and pagansim is about???

To a Christan, pagans are evil. To me, you are outward flowing. I am a Buddhist, I strive to stop outward flowing, I try to inward flow. That doesn't mean that what you do doesn't work for you, just not for me. 🙂

Pagans are ok....just be a nice pagan...

guess im screwed with my avatar then

Yeah....evil goats head......devil boy.

Paganism was around lonmg before any of the organised religion, including Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

Its only when those religions which worshiped one god, demonised everyone else.

Paganism is the true British religion so I love them all.

hey, thanks. i go to a school where if i get caught reading or doing anything magick ect. meditating, visualising energy, reading my wicca book I get hissed at or i get dissed. 🙁

any other ideas???

Wicca is just like any other religion, in that it will suit your spiritual needs. If you feel that Wicca is right for you, then pursue it.

If you're a Christian, hinduism is a sin... as an Odinist, a follower of the Northern Way, I'm an in-ya-face Pagan... we're a bit less eco and a lot more warrior... and we believe in whatever gods are handiest....as I've said to my lot several times, when you have one God, you have to be intolerant... when you have thousands, one more is just an extra bottle at the party....

Wicca is cool, and paganism in general too, they make more sense than christian self contradictory philosophy. People are just too dumb to understand things which they were not forced too, like the bible, and choose by their own will.

Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. [Deu 18:11,12 ]

God says, in his Holy Scriptures that abominations won't be in heaven. In another place it also says sin separates us from God. So it sounds like abominations and sin cause bring about the same results.

Rev 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

See what I mean.

If 80% of what you are going to post is to be quotes from the bible at lease let it be with a modern translation. Please go down to the book store and get a new translation of the bible, it would be easier for many people to read your posts. "And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing" makes no sense at all. 😠

I would rather quote from the unadulterated version of the Bible. When ever men get their hands into changing something, it becomes a mess. Besides the fact that spiritual things are spiritually discerned.

I have heard the NIV called the Jesuit Bible, because of the altercations that have been done to it. I can believe that!

It has complete verses missing, to suit the deceptions of Satan.

Gotta hand it to Satan, for plugging the world again into gross darkness like the dark ages. We sit by totally unaware of his tactics, because he is so subtle. The gradual changes are taking the living words away from the people.

Are you insane or just ignorant? The bible you quote from was changed many times by man, things were put in and taken out and translation after translation has changed the words.

Are you here to talk to us or is this just an ego thing for you?

Talking works both ways, and everyone can have an opinion, but the truth of God's word will stand forever. In the end, it is the Holy Spirit that brings the conviction and true conversion. God knows the heart, we can never fool God, no matter how hard we may try.

We all have a right to agree or to disagree, without that we wouldn't have a very eventful conversation.

Isaiah 40:8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.
