I'd like to make a poitn here. NO WICCAN'S ARE SATANISTS. Wicca is a pagan
based religion. Wiccans are the wisemen and women of the pagans. Think of
them as the archbishops of pagan society. True paganism is not satanic
either despite what your church or governement might tell you. SOme twisted
individuals try to make it look like it is.
Pagan is the worlds oldest religion (well oldest still surviving anyway) and
it is about the worship of nature and the protection of the earth (from the
Wicca standpoint anyway). I am actually by birth a pagan. Born under the
gaze of Lileth (which the christians nicked btw) the goddess of the moon.
She is the mother of all children born, and protector of women from the
evils of man. ( yes i am a man). Pagan society is based entirely on the
cycles of nature. On a year that has two parts. the first starts on Beltane
(1st of May) and continues until the 30th of October. Then there is Samhain
the day of the dead (you call it halloween) which is not part of the year,
and then the second cycle begins the day after and continues untill next
Beltane.
While im on the subject. what is wrong with satanism. It is a religion
based on the worship of yourself as an adversary. It is not about ritual
sacrifice or selling your soul to the devil. That is just a load of bulldrek
made up by mass murderers when they get caught.
