As long as we practice what we do, there will ALWAYS be people that think we worship Satan. Or worse yet, those that think we are possessed by demons and devils and should pray for our immortal souls. To them I say this, God (By whatever name you call him/her in the infinite Universe) is the number one provider of future telling. Noah knew the flood would come and they all laughed at him.. see how that one turned out. So stop thumping the books people. If you don't believe, your choice. Condemning and criticizing someone else for your own ease of mind is not a healthy action. ^_^

One cannot pay too much heed to the fundamentalist Bible-thumpers. They hardly represent most Christians (there are nice ones, and even open-minded ones!), but we must pay attention to the fact that they do exist, and in large enough numbers to be of danger to Pagans. They are the ones who perpetuate the bad stereotypes of Witches and all who deviate from their uber-Christian ways. I can just see the scene in heaven...

Jesus: For my sake! You fundamentalist guys are giving me a bad name!!

I mean, seriously, some of these ideas they have are more far-fetched than most of our mythology and much of the Biblical events. Theres a site, www.truechristian.com , that denounces everything from The Wiggles to Count Chocula cereal. They even turn on Christians who use the ichthus (Jesus Fish) as a symbol. It's nuts.
8.) Myth: Pagans never really battled against Christians and the Christians slaughtered men, women, and children who were all innocent and peaceful.

Reality: Christians slaughtered pagan men, women, and children who were all Evil and Satanic for there Evilness of not being Christian.


and that makes them better than everybody else, how...? If I remember correctly, "Thou shalt not kill," is high on the Ten Commandments.

I don't have a problem with Christians in general, it's just the people of any religion that try to force their beliefs onto everybody else and act holier than thou. I wasn't aware that we all had to be clones of one another and believe the same things. rolleyes

The "fishy-smelling" womanly parts amused me, too. I thought that the fish represented the food that Jesus was said to have made in the Bible. He was often depicted with bread, wine, and fish, after all.. I am amazed that those people turned on their own "brothers and sisters in Christ." So much for "Love thy neighbor."

At least they recognize that a lot of the holidays we celebrate have Pagan origins, even if they do villify them.

Thanks for the site, Azana. I needed a good laugh to cheer me up. rofl


@Gyver - I thought that the pentacle was Wicca-oriented (the endless loop around the lines and circle), whereas the pentagram was more of a Satanism thing, or that the only difference was that one was drawn when the other was worn.

Edit - Just one more...
4.) Myth: Christians persecute Pagans.

Reality: Pagans persecute Christians. They don't allow us to burn them at the stake anymore since of Liberal Laws.


Despite them pridefully admitting to persecuting Pagans... And nevermind the fact that the Salem witch trials were fueled by greed for land and vengence.

I have great difficulty believing that this site is real. I can't believe that people think that way.. And I love how everything is "EVIL" and "SATANIC."


This website is a satire. AKA a spoof. The guy who made it is pushing buttons to get people to see how rediculous they actually are and how words can be twisted in the eye of the beholder.
