Just be mindful as you seek your path, you can gain insights from others with their points of view, but the final choice is always up to you as how you follow what you believe in. (-: I am a Pagan Witch.. I follow the ways of Old and Wise. Each Pagan or Wiccan or other Nature Based Faith practices differently than another of the same Faith, so your answers from this Society will always be a different one. (-:  |

But none the less.. would be the right choice for them, as they made it through to hear their own callings from within...  |

God said let US create man in OUR image. Who is we? (another discussion in itself) I believe it is God (insert His name) and the Goddess Azna (as Sylvia Brown calls Her). Pray to both if you like. Because ALL is Gods, and he is in everything I don't think He would mind Sharing a prayer with Azna. ~ Russ  |

Hang in there, Jesus will show you He is real. Look for answers to your prayers in the sermons. Ask as many questions of Him as you can. *LoveisAll*  |

I agree with LoveisAll....but what you decide only you can decide and make that decision for yourself. I believe that all the answers are within Jesus and are within the scripture....but it can not be pushed on you. In the end you have to make the choice. Good luck hon, I hope you find the answers you are looking for.

Im with Sur5r (just for the record Wiccan here .) Honestly sounds like you study it, you become it, you find another religion, you become it. Chill for a sec ! 1) religion is a tool to get you where your going thus of the batrillion different religions out there you may find none (as they currently are) suit you and thats fine. You dont have to be a strict religion as long as you know what YOU personally believe. 2) why not study things other then the beloved craft or Christianity? Hinduisim, Islam, Judiasim, Shintoism, Buddism, Taoism, other forms of Paganisim, Voodism, and heck even Satanisim all exist out there (those are only a few by the way) and unless you've studied them all past a fleeting glance you may never know if any of those suit you better. To top it off I cant tell you its okay in Christianity but in there are a lot of sects of Wicca calling themselves 'Christian-Wiccans' where they combine the two belief systems. Honestly I dont see the need to go all out, why cant you believe/worship Jesus (from a Wicca point of view) and just be a plain Wiccan? I suggest you try these sites: witchvox.com (for the Christian-Wiccan thing), about.com (their spirituality section is amazing), and beliefnet.com (again same thing.) Hope I helped  |

Well I am my own religion, I believe and worship the christian God as well as the Goddess, I do witchcraft and I'm very spiritual. When I do to bed to don't really prayer but when I need to I pray to God, if I'm sick I will turn to the Goddess. You can turn to both!! I have found that practicing witchcraft has brough me closer to God and I love it!! So you can worship both the father and the mother!! It has worked for!!  |

That is what I did... I studied many different ways of Worship, not to become what they practice, but to compare with my own beliefs and strength in my own faith that my path was the correct one for myself. Many feel that we are satan or devil worshipping, and the truth be known, that spirit does not exisit for us at all.. that is another religion altogether known as Voodoo or Satanics, not Wiccan or Paganism.
