That's like calling a tree a dog, just because you feel like it.
A tree has it's own definition, and it's no where near what a dog is.. You can't just make up your own definition for what you think a tree should be when it's already clearly defined.

I'm just talking out of my a** though, of course.
Proof you don't care what we say as your just blowing wind... you've been entertaining...but now....

Intelligent children ask intelligent questions that have a reason behind them.


Asking 'why?' isn't an intelligent question? Asking for justification is not an intelligent question? I think me and you differ greatly on what are and aren't good questions.

Namikikyo
Your just asking them because your not getting it through your thick skull.


Tsk, tsk. That's hardly complementary Highness. Why loose your venom on me?

Asking "why _______?" is more intelligent than just babbling on pointlessly asking "why?", especially when you're not interested in the answer.

It's the way things work plain and simple.

Most illogical. I could say the same thing. That words have no static meaning, and that's just the way things work.
Words have context and with in that context comes meaning.

Indeed, which is why the word 'Wicca' can mean different things, within different contexts.
Not when it is the title of a religion such as Christianity or Wicca. Wicca means X, as that was how it was created. I can not mean Y as it does not fit X. X=/=y


Now we are just back to where we started. You've given me no reason to assume 'Wiccan' can only mean X or can't change, other than 'It just does'. What does it matter how it was created? Lots of words were created to mean something, and mean totally different things now.
Give an example.

Of course it would sound that way if you rip it from it's original context. I said that during our conversation about paganism being a fad, which was me half-joking. It means I do think it's a fad, but I have no logical justification for thinking so. Ergo, I'm talking out of my a**.

No, it fails to become an intelligent question when the person using it can not understand the answer that was given no matter how many times it was presented to said person.

Instead your using "Why?" as a sheild to keep your already crumbling beliefs away from the mean angry truths about Wicca.

Because instead of actually understanding and accepting why your religion is a poorly done bastardized version of either religion, Your almost in a state of denial. A denial that is repetative. Very repetative.

I don't know what you're talking about. I understand her answers, I just don't find them to be satisfactory. At least by a logical standard.

Gay means happy and is a slang for homosexual men.

You misunderstand my point. My point isn't that Wicca means 'Y' it's that Wicca can mean anything, because it's just a word and words change in meaning.
