25 Reasons Christians Become Wiccan.
|

| 
Ever since converting to Aradian Wicca, I have noticed a shunning of sorts, in some cases outright hostility, from my former church goers.I believe it is a need to cut me from the herd before others follow in my footsteps...so I have listed a quick 25 reasons here to help them over their mental hurdle.
1. Christians have a bad habit of telling you what you should or should not read not to mention all the things they do not want you to do.
2. Marriage is simply a commitment between two people, not between two people and a church.
3. We accept everyone, no questions asked.
Save Yourself and the Planet, Go Vegetarian.

Animals are my pals and I do not eat my friends"
was how George Bernard Shaw explained his vegetarian diet. Albert Einstein said that the adoption of "the vegetarian manner of living...would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind."
No matter whether you are interested in vegetarianism because of lofty moral ideals which include those held by Shaw and Einstein, or given that you just would like to lose weight and really feel superior physically you're not alone. Throughout the world there's a growing interest in vegetarianism.
Aradia. A very old witch book.

PREFACE
For brief explanation I may say that witch craft is known to its votaries as la vecchia religione, or the old
religion, of which Diana is the Goddess, her daughter Aradia (or Herodias) the first Witch, and that this
little work sets forth how the latter was born, came out of the darkness of the woods, established witches and witchcraft, and
then returned to the forest. With it are given the ceremonies and invocations or incantations to be addressed to
Diana and Aradia, the exorcism of Cain, and the spells of the holy−stone, rue, and verbena, constituting, as
the text declares, the regular church−service, so to speak, which is to be chanted or pronounced at the
witch−meetings. There are also included the very curious incantations or benedictions of the honey, meal,
and salt, or cakes of the witch−supper, which is curiously classical, and evidently a relic of the Roman
Mysteries.
What is Witchcraft.
| | | 
Be proud to call yourself "witch"
Witchcraft the religion, along with its Pagan cousins, flourished in the blooming New Age counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s and then took hold on the edges of mainstream society.
In the years since its birth, Witchcraft has solidified some in uniform codes, values and core beliefs. But at heart it remains fluid, constantly evolving in practice and interpretation.
Practitioners find Witchcraft empowering and believe it provides a powerful spiritual path on a par with all other mystical, spiritual and religious paths.
Dozens and dozens of Witchcraft and Pagan traditions exist, and new ones are born all the time.
Witchcraft and Paganism have survived the first tests of time. The movements took hold in the baby boom generation. Now, the children and grandchildren of those people are growing up Wiccan and Pagan, and new young people are attracted to the fold in increasing numbers.
But there remains that pesky word witchcraft, which still evokes Satan, evil and black magic to many outsiders. For decades now, Witches have argued about whether or not Witch ought to be replaced with a term that doesn’t come with so much negative baggage.
Some have adopted the terms Wicca and Wiccan to describe themselves and their religion and also to distinguish who they are and what they do from folk magic.
Today, most Witches stand firm by the terms Witch and Witchcraft, believing that the public can and should be reeducated about both. They have made headway, for Witchcraft/Wiccan churches are recognized legally.
In a nutshell Wicca is old English for Witchcraft.
Thus a duck is still a duck and a Wiccan is still a Witch.
