Tch; if we keep hidden, we'll be fine. =P Plus, we should be able to believe in what we'd like; this is nothing to fuss over about, well maybe for Christians, but yeah. You want to know what's to fuss over about? A person thinking that all children are evil.

I actually believe that we're starting to be more accepted. I think Wicca is going to become a really big religion if nothing happens in 2012(don't start talking about this it is irrelevant to this post). Joey don't forget that in America we have religious freedom, they cannot do that because Wicca is offically a religion in the United States.

It would be down to a local superstitious group blaming someone like one of us for a recent tragic event. There was a woman that I lived near in a small town called Sullivan in Illinois that was a witch. She didn't practice wicca, but she did practice Magick. It was well known that she was a pagan, because a lot of people made fun of her for it.

An Amish family was killed in an accident a few yars back. Even though the Driver had fallen asleep, a lot of the locals thought that she had cursed the father of that poor family because he verbally attacked her in the grocery store, in front of her friends, husband, and daughter. The rumors got so bad that her husband left her, and the local judge let him take her daughter away. If they would have taken the time to talk to her, they would have realized that all her magic was intended to help keep her and her family healthy, and to help her husband's business prosper. But she was thrown out of her own house because of the superstitious.

Witch Hunts have become less dramatic than burning witches at the stake, but they are still around.

Wow, funny. You realize that those in the U.S. are protected by religious freedom. Wicca is an accepted religion and practicers have protection by the law. I'm not sure about other countries, but wicca is being accepted and more people are starting to understand what it is about. Knowledge quashes ignorance and being ignorance free helps the individual to understand and accept things for what they are. This hunt simply will not happen...

"Witch Hunts" happen proverbially every day. Any time someone who thinks differently from the majority raises their voice, they will be crucified for their beliefs by the unthinking majority. Most people don't open their minds because they are comfortable in their ignorance. It's a disease that nobody has yet been able to find a cure for.

You should see South Africa, a witch gets executed there almost everyday, it's been twenty years since the Landover Baptist church has legally executed a witch and they're working their heads off to try to legally kill another, some other etxremist churches in America are hunting down and destroying groves, some Christian counries in Africa are trying to get rid off shaman and witch doctors, and you'd be suprised how many mordern day Christsians still think witches are evil! Witch hunts are still around but we're protected by law (most of the time...) some other people also think we're nut jobs but know that Paganism is the only religion that can save the world from global warming because of it being nature-based.

Global Warming is a problem, but one that has been accumulating over the last four millennium. What do you think people did for fires when they needed to keep warm, or heat a forge? Burnt coal. Greenhouse Gasses have been accumulating since Man discovered fire. Also, decomposing plant and animal life releases greenhouse gasses, so it's been gathering since there was life on our planet.

The Earth goes through climate stages. It is irrational to think that just because our cars release a lot of gas to the atmosphere, in less than 100 years it can exceed the 5,000 years of metalworking and home-heating that our race has done already, or the billions of years of decay. That's why there was an Ice Age in the past, and there is going to be one in the future, byt most likely long after your great-great-granchildren have died, and Humans are living on Mars.

i'm actually from South Africa, and a witch doesn't get killed everyday, that is total bullsh. but about 4 years ago there was an incident, there are a couple of enemies we face as practicioners, one being the christian element, especially the knight of the veritas who destroy all they regard as evil, which includes any of us, they are controlled and are assasins for the vatican and roman catholic church, these assasins are also within the astral realm and can be blamed for most of the "wars" which occur there. This is why we must all keep a level of secrecy, that is why we as practicioners have always had this code, only share your truth with those who you can trust and who can fully handle it, or else you may risk endangering all those you hold dear. it's a shitty world we are living in, but we gotta be realistic too, people always fear what they do not understand, and some will never understand us, that is why when the world starts taking back it's own and rising up against those who oppress it all of us should stand back and let it do it's thing. and please, as i said, as times are now changing remember to look after yourself by keeping a level of secrecy, you let it slip at your own risk.. sorry for sounding like a doom prophet, i just want all to realise things like this do still really happen around us just out of the public eye.
