Ive been studying the egyptians sense i was 5 or 6 so dont you dare say i have not done my research, As to what you ment by wiccans not being confined to a few dietys, i thought thats what made wicca, wicca, its belief in the horned god and godess which you have failed ot mention at all, so i asume you dont worship them?
and i read books and write things that a college student would doing right now and im only 13 so stfu, sense yo dont know me at all
and im not shoving a religion down yuore throat, i was telling yuo why youre a friken cherry picker and not a wiccan sense you lean more towards the kemetic religion or thats what you have made it look like, maybe you should actually talk to a kemetic insyead of listening to whatever youre friends tellingyou , ........... get youre beliefs from the religion there aprt of, not from some friend who has probably just picked up som book on the kemetic religion and found it interesting so they said "im kemetic or whatever youre firend calls itself

you think im mad or soemthing rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl
trust me, it takes allot to get me mad rolleyes
IM conceited,wtf are you talking about, conceited means i only think of myself so that made no sense at all , and i am taking a look at the big picture, and i see you plucking things from a religion you show a lack of knowledge in, if you want to call youself wiccan then actually go to a true wiccan and discuss with them the true things behind being wiccan. If you want to be Kemetic then go to a kemetic and find out whats behind being a kemetic, you cant just make youre won religon by cherry picking everything you and youre friend like, yes i understand people do that but they dont label themselves as anything, they say they dont have a religion they just choose what they like so that they have a religion that reflects them
PS: Awsome avi 3nodding

When it comes to wicca, in my study I've found many Deities . They do not belong to wicca itself, but many of wiccans call them for there power and help. No one, actually belongs to Wicca....
Rather it be....Taliesin (Celtic God) or Bast and Anubis (Egyptian Goddesses and God)
None of us just know information about any god or godesses; or about any religion. It has to be reseached, in order to see if the facts are right. In one place there may be little information...and if it's not enough we go look for more, it's just the way some people are, we thirst for information.
Also in my study I've come across many of wicca's that can talk to there deities. spirits, and others. Just a certain gift some..but not few have. If I'm being disagreed with I understand; but this is what've looked up and it is also a gift I have. We all look for information, we all crave knoweledge.
We are not...Cerridwen: Keeper of the Cauldron.
That's just what I have to say....

WoW, lots of interesting and conflicting arguments flying from both sides, before I jump in I have to ask 1 question...
Where did you people study Textual Transmissions, lore criticism of the Bible?
Textual Transmission is the actual science used to study this particular field. I'll admit I have not, but I have spoken to and learned from people who have. And there is a huge difference in arguments presented when someone has actually been in the field of Textual Transmissions, and those who have not and just make dogmatic claims to what they think they know.
Not saying this just to the Bible bashers, there are many christians who run out and preach the word of the Gospel without a true understanding of it and either mis-interprets the meaning, or they hear something they don't understand and just run with it as if they do, and usually send the wrong message out to people.
I'm not poking fun or calling out any one person in general, but most of the time people will act and speak based on what they hear from others without a true understanding or presenting actual study of the scriptures.
To me this is a sign of a big game of telephone. You remember the game where everyone sits in a circle, one person whispers something to the person to their left and you go round and round the circle, and when you get back to the original person the message has changed so much it has very little if nothing to do with the original message spoken.
I think the big question we need to ask ourselves before bashing the Bible is, Is this a book written by men about God? Or is it a book written by God through men? There is a difference. And while no one can 100% prove the former, there is strong arguments and evidence supporting that the Bible is a book written by God through men.
I'm not going to go into details, but some of these arguments/evidence for this is through Profecies made with so much detail that have come to pass, (Daniel is a good example) That many of historians claim that the book had to of been written after the fact. Unity, over 60 books written, 40 writers from different walks of life over hundreds of years woven together in one accurate scripture. It answers the big questions to life in a real world view. It is an index to history which many historians, even National Geographic have used the Bible to find locations and understand previous events in human history thanks to the Gospel. It has supernaturally changed lives, Millions of people from every walk of life, young, old, rich poor, American, European, African, Asian, people from all over the worlds lives have been supernaturally changed for the better because of the power of the message from the Gospel. And finally the Bible is a fighter. There is a reason why the Gospel hasn't been swept away and joined the ranks of other mythologies and is glanced at as nothing more than a fairy tale or legend. If there is a God who wants his message to have longevity and fighting power to survive throughout the history of man kind, then we should see evidence of this through how the Bible has survived throughout history. Jesus said himself,
"The grass and flowers shall grow and wither, Earth and Heaven will rise and fall, but the word of God is eternal."
And we see evidence of this today.
Is this 100% proof that the Bible is a book written by God through men? No, but it is very strong evidence that supports it. And more than enough to give people reason to believe that the Gospel is indeed valid and true, and not something where as one person on this thread said, "Shall I get the straight jacket or will you Christians go to the crazy house willingly?" For believing in it.

One day the bible will also be just another fairy tale, NOTHING is eternal for everything has an end point wether it be a religion, race, nation or a single person, even gods and godess meet their dooms one day, but unlike us gods and godess just sleep until their religions become large enough again for those dietys to wake up
Perssonaly youre not providing facts youre providing opinions, the only things you stated in that post that was a fact was that archeologists and historians use the bible to discover sites, they would not use the bible as a cultural or historical record sense the bible is jaded and has a huge christain twist to it, for eevry city that fell, god was behind it, for every religion that faded away, go was purging the world of evil and so on

You know the Christian religion is founded on faith. There may not be a way to possiblly prove it. But we have faith and that is enough. I do not know any fancy science stuff for you but I do know that my faith is true nad my beliefe real.

I youre faith was true, then why are there so many faling points in youre religion ? modern day archeology, science etc have proved MANY biblical things wrong or misinterpreted
another thing is, if youre god is so real and loving then why is he not helping the world right now? perssonaly id rather believe in gods who can actually take on physical manifestations RIGHT now and actually prove there who they say they are and actually help us and give a sign or prove that they helped us. Those are the marks of true dietys not a diety that hides away in some golden palace in the sky and says that we should all love each other and yet he does not do anything to stop the wars, poverty etc that are rampant among mankind

what all of you are missing is the fact that you are humans not chrisians Jewish , etc... you are humans. nothing more nothing less.. religions and races and nations are made just to breed hate upon other people....as you can see from this thread it makes hate, because to you your opinion is right and u want to make everyone else see that. neither of you are wrong and neither of you are right. you can do all the research you want but so could taht other person, and no matter what you believe you are right.

Sheagorath_The_MadGod witchcraft is a derogrative term, and to accpet it as youre label is like saying "hey im a witch, im evil yay" thats what witch means >.> also you cannot even preform true magic, not to debase youre beliefs but its physically impossible for a human to practice true magic, that is unless youre gifted, and as far as im concerned the hunters have killed all but the last 20 and they are all very old and may die somewhere in the near future Witchcraft is not the practice of evil. You're definition of witchcraft is f-ed up and needs straightening out.

witch craft is a relativly new term that means the practice of wicked things etc and trust me i know what im talking about sense no one was called a witch until everyone got all scared of people who claimed they could use magic.
it also has a bad denotation(is that the right one) sense as kids almost everyone was raised to think that witches were the crazy old ladys with the bats and everything
if you were to call your self by another name besides witch then you would not be insulting youreself, also humans have absoloutly NO magical ablility unless its given to them by a god or godess

I love how a topic on the editing of the bible became a thread on if magic is real or not. The physical manipulation of air, fire, water, and earth isn't possible without tools such as a freezer or backhoe. However the spiritual manipulation of elements is possible if you believe in that.
