Re: Bright Blessings, Friends!

I see! So your pastor has invoked a ritual to protect this message board from the influence of malevolent spirits? That was quite smart of him. As any Wiccan can tell you, it is always best to be on the look-out for any interfering spirits who can disrupt the positive energies that occur during a Gathering.

Magjijiyck and prayer are totally different. Magic is when you incant words of power to get the attention of spiritual entities with supernatural power and induce them to do your bidding. Prayer is when you invoke language to call upon God and encourage Him to do what you want Him to do. As you can see from the way I have worded these two sentences, they are mutually exclusive, the former corrupt and devoid of wisdom, the latter enlightened and benevolent.

First of all, let me say that it pleases me to see a non-Wiccan using an appropriate spelling of the term magyck! I only wonder why you then proceeded to use the patriarchal term of oppression for it ("magic").

Now, let me preface this by saying I mean no insult to your religion, and am truly interested in learning more about it. So please let me get this straight. The differences between magyck and prayer is that prayer is heard by God, but magyck has a better chance of working?

Sorry, the first one burned me out.

You are impossible. The difference is a totally obvious one. Duh!

Magjyickjyk invokes the names of spiritual beings like Zeus and Hecate

Christian Prayer(tm) invokes the name of the Lord Jesus Christ

Magjyickijgcck uses magjgyckckyl words.

Christian prayer uses spiritual language.

See the obvious difference between the two?

Re: Bright Blessings, Friends!

Again, I'd like to thank you for using appropriate terms for magyck. It isn't often we womyn of the Craft are used to such politeness from people who identify themselves as conservative Christians. If only others followed your example sir, soon we womyn would be allowed to practice our Craft openly, and I thank you for it.

Now, if it is not too much trouble (and I can understand why it would be, you wouldn't believe how often I have to explain Wicca to people!) would you please tell me if I have it right now? Prayer is magyck that is only intended for one spirit, i.e. your God to hear?

On a sidenote, I wonder why so many people are making Star Wars allusions. Have they been watching too many Sci-Fi movies and forgot this verse?

"Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor."

I've chosen my name because the Witch of Endor is a fine example of what liberated womyn who practice the Craft can achieve. Being visited by kings and what-not for advice.

NO! Don't be absurd! A prayer is a petition to God Almighty for Him to fix some problem that He is in perfect and ineffable wisdom created in the first place. Your magic is just begging groveling before some false god to fix your petty problems.

Look at it this way

Prayer: God created the problem

Magic: the spirit or false god did not creat the problem.

You see?

Why is the difference so hard for you to see???

Now don't you have some statue to cavort naked in front of like a harlot?

Re: Bright Blessings, Friends!

Forgive the lateness of this reply, but for the past two hours I had been invoking the power of the Three Goddesses in a private fertility ritual.

Now, I think I understand the difference between magyck and prayer, but again, if it is not too much trouble, I would appreciate it if a Christian could clarify for me.

Now, your God creates a problem, and you pray to him so that he removes said problem. And magyck is when, instead of asking the entity that created the problem in the first place (which makes me wonder why he would help), you "cut out the middleman" as it were and directly remove the problem using the Craft?

Again, many thanks Christians, for helping me understand your faith

Blessed be, my tolerant Christian friends

You do realize, rib of Adam, that your "religion" was started by a man who was only into it to fornicate with overweight women.

By the way, what are you up to these days, around 195 maybe 200?

I think you should come to Freehold for the fall festival. All that running you would do might do you some good.

"Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor."

And how did that turn out for Saul?

You're disgusting thespian orgies do not interest me harlot! As a Godly true Christian heterosexual male I find nothing intresting in three naked, oily women sliding all over each other.

God is perfect and all powerful! Do you think your feeble little false gods can defeat the Unconditional Love of our God when moves to squash mortals like insignificant bugs?

You see, that is Witchcraft is missing: TRUE love! Like Job, you only understand love when you are saying "Oh God no!"

[Witch of Endor]

Re: Bright Blessings, Friends!

As above and so below Christians, I think it was truly the hand of the Horned God that has led me to such a tolerant community that is so willing to help me with my religious questioning.

You do realize, rib of Adam, that your "religion" was started by a man who was only into it to fornicate with overweight womyn.

I do not understand what this "rib of Adam" means. Wicca is a proud and noble tradition that hearkens back to the old Gaelic pagan beliefs. And as we Wiccans believe "An it harm none, do what thou wilt" the fornication is only a side benefit.

By the way, what are you up to these days, around 195 maybe 200?

Asking a lady her weight? Though it would be improper to give you an exact number, I can promise you my diet of herbal tea, mandrake, and cough syrup keeps me quite svelte

I think you should come to Freehold for the fall festival. All that running you would do might do you some good.

I do appreciate the invitation surely, and may take it up one of these years!

But as I've explained previously, I am working some major fertility magyck with some of my brothers and sisters in the coven on the eve of Samhain, so unfortunately I will be unable to attend.

And how did that turn out for Saul?

Rather badly, did it not? The real question here is how did it turn out for the Witch of Endor. I imagine quite well, seeing as how after the battle there was no one to persecute her for practicing the Craft.

I think you may have misunderstood friend. I meant that it was a personal fertility ritual. I can't give out the details, but I can assure you only I was involved.

God is perfect and all powerful! Do you think your feeble little false gods can defeat the Unconditional Love of our God when moves to squash mortals like insignificant bugs?

You see, that is Witchcraft is missing: TRUE love! Like Job, you only understand love when you are saying "Oh God no!"

Ah! I understand now. Your God is a powerful, malevolent spirit who holds you in thrall, and he dislikes the casting of magyck as it could be the only thing that may weaken his hold over you. Thank you for clearing that up for me friend.

And we Wiccans have a saying. "In perfect love and in perfect trust". I have love and trust for all things; be they man, womyn, animal, or plant.

No! No! You tree hugging harlot!

God is not malevolent; we humans are the evil ones because God created us that way!!! The very fact God allows us to exist shows the dept of God's love for us. We humans deserve to burn in Hell!!! God is being kind when He punishes us!

This is so simple and clear, why is this so hard for you to understand?

[Witch of Endor]

Re: Bright Blessings, Friends!

Bobby-Joe, my friend, I finally understand! Thank you for being so patient with me.

Your God created Baptists, and requires you to follow His word or he condemns you to eternal suffering. In his infinite mercy he does allow those of you who he deems appropriate into Heaven.

In that case, I feel sorry that you could not have been created by the mingling of the Three Goddesses and the Horned God like us Wiccans. Upon our deaths we vacation in the Summerland while waiting to be reincarnated as witches.

A WITCH!! SWEET JESUS!! A WITCH!

Father,
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I plead the precious uncorruptable blood of Jesus over myself and my church and everything that belongs to us. I ask for giant warrior Angels to be loosed from Heaven to surround and protect us. As your war club and weapons of war I break down, undamn, and blow up all walls of protection around all witches, warlocks, wizards, satanists, and the like, and I break the power of all curses, hexes, vexes, spells, charms, fetishes, physic prayers, physic thought, all witchcraft, sorcery, magic, voodoo, all mind control, jinxes, potions, bewitchments, death, destruction, sickness, pain, torment, physic power, physic warfare, prayer chains, and everything else being sent my way or my family members way, and I return it and the demons to the senders right now!, SEVENFOLD, and I BIND it to them by the Blood of Jesus!

Father, I pray that these lost souls will find the light of your son Jesus.. Their own snares and traps have been set against themselves.. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I now loose them from all mindcontrol of satan!.. Father I also ask that you Bind the Holy Spirit to there hearts as a guide to your son Jesus.. So they may be set free from the bondages of satan.

In Jesus name I pray..
Amen

Your "religion" was dead and buried until some man on drugs came along claiming to have rediscovered it.

Asking a lady her weight? Though it would be improper to give you an exact number, I can promise you my diet of chicken wings, lard, and Crisco keeps me quite plump.

Wow, over 300..

Are you sure about that, sunshine? Last I checked, David didn't cotton with witches.

Ah! I understand now. Your God is a powerful, malevolent spirit who holds you in thrall,

How can you say that? God is all things both good and bad. He doesn't ask you to question His nature. He merely wants your trembling fear and total obedience.
