The Bright Movement (Dennett)

[Vibecrewangel]

Wicca was created in the 1960s by Gardner. He based the religion on many old traditions. (Religions and traditions are quite different) Wicca is a religion with a very strict set of rules....what most people call Wicca today has NOTHING to do with what Gardner built. Wicca has become a synonym for "build your own pagan religion" and it really isn't. In addition being a witch and practicing Wicca actually have NOTHING to do with each other.

I hate most neo-pagans and "Wiccans" simply because they want the structure of a religion but insist on trying to build one out of traditions.....Shamanism conbined with Druidism combined with Witchcraft all using Greek and Roman gods in their rituals.....it's f'n stupid. If you want to practice traditions then practice them, but don't try to call it a religion and especially don't try to call it a religion it isn't. Like Wicca.
