I was under the impression that Wicca was a fertility cult. And you had to be at least 18 to get into a coven. Actually, I think the founder actually sated that it was a fertility cult. So how could underage people claim to be Wiccan? Because they might be a fluffy bunny and think they know all like Silver Ravenwolf.

that is gardnerian wicca eclectic wicca is more free form you dont have to be eighteen but you do have to initiate yourself it is primarily a fertility belief but also more towards the earth and the gods its not all about the nitty gritty i think you need a little more information.

eclectic wicca? hmm...I was mostly going off the traditional stuff because that is just what keeps popping up.

traditional is great and has a lot of good points to it, ecclectic is where you take bits and pieces of other teachings or other branches of wicca and combine them to fit your style that is one of the great things about wicca, no i do follow the god and goddess and the eight sabbats fairly strictly but other then that im pretty free form as ive said.

isn't that just an excuse for the fluffies to go run wild? who first thought of this? what's the history? does gardner approve/disapprove?

doesnt matter who first thought of it.
doesnt matter if there is a history to it.
and gardners arent omniscient.

But gardner was the original founder of wicca. shouldn't it be what he says goes? if he doesn't approve of these so called "eclectic wiccans" than they really are not wiccnas.

Ever heard of Eclectic Wiccans?

They aren't Wiccans. They are misapplying a title.

You should listen to Tea. She knows her stuff.

I bet there'd be plenty of people who'd say you aren't taking it seriously enough.

Out of curiousity, what are these six branches?

Well maybe the only true Wiccan religion is that of Gardner's. And the rest are just offshoots that really aren't Wiccan.

while the branches might be a different form of the original tree, they can be rotten.
i wouldnt say that the Phelps family is ideal christianity, or even christianity at all, but they have the basic idea.
other than that they need a reform.
