How many wars were started, or people tortured or masacred in the name of the goddess, or to try and make other become Wiccan? Or Buddhist? Or Pagan?
I've read the Bible. That's why I AM an athiest.
My new favorite bumper sticker (from www.cafepress.com) :
"This is a Christian country - thats why there are no homeless people here."
I love it.
The other day I was talking to a friend about energy. Something had happened, a very weird coincidence - she came to tell me that she met a guy at work that is interested in her, and that asked her out. The more she talked, he seemed familiar. It so happens that I grew up literally 2 doors down from him. Weird. Energy. She is very christian. I told her that it was energy and reaffirmed how we should be more open to it, cause it is everywhere and very powerful.
She said to me, and was referring to witchcraft and the such, "Yeah, but someday it will disappoint you."
And my quick reply to that, which she couldn't even find a response to was, "It can't possibly disappoint me anymore than christianity has." All she could do was to smile, and kind of nod in agreement.

I just wanted to tell you, that you are the apple of God's eye. He loves you even if you have decided to go another direction and he will always love you, with unconditional love, the very type of love you have experienced with your children. I'm sorry for what you have seen bearing the title of "Christianity" - it is not. Real christianity will manifest itself as love, joy, peace, longsuffering(patience), gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance, Galations 5:22-23. The type that you feel towards your children...the type that God's son, Jesus, after experiencing it with his father, came to show us, John 7:29. so that we would follow his example, John 13:15. There are many gods in our world to follow, but there is only one that claims to be the "Creator" of all things. The miracle of birth is just a little reminder of the creative power of an Awesome, Loving God. p.s. even though He didn't need to be, Jesus chose to be homeless, Matthew 8:20. This message of love from God was never about money and riches.
WoW anonymous you missed the point of the bumper sticker ENTIRELY.
We are one of the richest nations in the world, and the US is predominatly christian. If christianity were such a loving good-willed orginization there would be enough shelters and free clinincs for people who wanted or needed them.
Also I NEVER fail to stop and help somebody when their car is stalled. This is something I have always done, because it totally sucks to be stranded. Yet I will watch hundreds if not thousands of people drive right by totally ignoring their christian brothers or sisters. Often times calling them names even.
The AVERAGE christian in this world is self-serving, haughty, and self-righteous.
On top of the fact we evolved, the "genisis" acount can definativly be proven false.
Dear anonymous - if you truly stand by what you write - you shouldn't be anonymous.
Second - I guess then, in the end, if there is one, god's will love and accept me anyhow, despite the fact that I am wiccan, right?
He will read my heart for what it is, right? If he loves me like I love my children, then I have nothing to worry about.
BTW - you totally missed the point. Once again, christians totally MISS the point. Fuck you.
If you truly stand behind what you say, why can't you state your name?
Yes, God will love you despite the fact that you are wiccan. That doesn't mean he approves and supports wiccan culture. Hence the voice in your head impressing you not to go that direction. But it is your choice, and love lets go eventually. It never forces you to come back. So, by ignoring the voice, you will eventually no longer hear it anymore. God respects your decision and leaves you alone. That was your choice. If you choose the wiccan way, though it may seem good now, the true character will be releaved when you try to come back to God. This is a supernatural power (not energy), that is opposed to God, and all that God loves, and don't think it will let you go without a fight.
