It do not say that in the bible. And if you have something against my religion we have a problem. Plus you do have the comment thing on your post. 2nd of all it is a sin to be another religion. Like if your Islam. But i dont think witchcraft is a religion anyway and you dont have to give a smart reply . Because unlike you im not a witch and i do read the bible. And i have proof that it doesn't say that in the bible. Oh wait there is no proof.
-chuckles, sighs- It’s gonna be one of those nights, isn’t it.
Okay, I can see from your blog that you’re on the young side, so I’m gonna check myself a bit and try to be polite about this, but honey...you need to learn.
Let me address these points in order.
“It do not say that in the bible.”
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. (Matthew 7:1-3)
How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,' when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. (Luke 6:42)
Nuff said there.
“And if you have something against my religion we have a problem.”
Hi, my name is Bree and for the first 20-some years of my life, I was an active, and enthusiastic Christian. I went to church and youth group regularly and attended Bible Study. Even as a pagan (Irish Polytheist), I retain a healthy respect for Christianity, and I think the idea of a creator so loving that they would sacrifice their own progeny to better the minds and hearts of a flawed and undeserving populace is moving and wonderful.
I also think that the Christian maxim of “Do unto others as you would have done unto you” is a fine idea and more people ought to take it into account. Hint hint.
Furthermore, you don’t know me and this hasn’t come up in a while, but I am a staunch supporter of Christian witches and the right of everyone to practice their religion freely, without judgment from others, as long as it is not infringing on the right of anyone else to do the same.
It’s not your religion I have a problem with; it’s your attitude.
“2nd of all it is a sin to be another religion. Like if your Islam.”
That is your view according to your faith. It does not give you the right to tell others that they are doomed or evil or deserving of ill treatment because their faith differs from yours.
Also, I believe the word you’re looking for is “Muslim.” Islam is the name of the religion. And if you’re already Islamophobic at your age, then I weep for the future of this country (some more).
“But i dont think witchcraft is a religion anyway...”
You’re correct! Witchcraft is a craft, not a religion, although some people combine their faith with their magical practices. And witchcraft is practiced by a goodly number of Christians as well as non-Christians. There’s a very wide array of people there. None of that means that practitioners of witchcraft are not deserving of the same respect and religious freedoms that you are.
“Plus you do have the comment thing on your post. [...] and you dont have to give a smart reply .”
The comment icon is neither an invitation nor an excuse for rudeness.
As for smart replies, I have not spent the better part of my life studying comparative religion and arguing for religious equality to watch somebody get run down for their faith just because they aren’t a Christian. Especially when nobody asked for religious commentary, but rather for practical legal advice.
“Because unlike you im not a witch and i do read the bible. And i have proof that it doesn't say that in the bible. Oh wait there is no proof.”
You may not be a witch, but that’s no reason to assume that I’m somehow morally or intellectually inferior, or that I haven’t read the Bible.
Also, you’re contradicting yourself pretty badly on that last bit there, but if you’re referring to the proof about judgmental and hypocritical statements, please see Point #1.
If you’ve read all this, then you’re a patient person and I thank you for taking the time to listen to someone else’s point of view. I hope you have a very nice evening.
