wicca

Hello, I have recently come to understand that God's Will is rather specific for most Christians and for those whom it is not, are usually not considered Chrisitans by others. God says to not impose your 'will' in any form over another unless you are stopping something evil that is against God's law. That would mean that in any form one can not impose ones will over another (through gifts or otherwise.) What the Bible clearly says about morality is different from other religions,philosophy,ect.
God says not to conform to the laws of Man,but of God.
A good example of this is our debate over the origins of the Constitution.
I wonder what our forefathers would say about many of the laws passed/allowed today. When Man depends on what He understands/knows,(well, the Bible clearly shows what will happen.)
The morality of Man will change, most likely for the worse. God set forth His Law as to guide man in moral nature. Not man's nature.
God's Law is separate from what nature would imply,dictate.
It is above all.Divine.
It is my personal testimony that God's love is His Law. If you can have faith in that, then you are blessed. If not: listen to facts,origins,your heart.

Wicca = Satanism Lite(all the damnation, half the guilt). An "is Satanism moral?" thread should be started next.

Sure. Tell your heart to listen closely:

"There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch. Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee" -- Deuteronomy 18:10-12

I was referring more to the word Satanism Lite. Satanism is much, much different than Wicca, for some points the value systems are diametrically opposed.

If I believe 100% I am right and you believe 100% u are right and we have both spoken to our gods..who is right? We wont know till the end.and u can;t say well I aqm right because jesus is the way because there are many other religions believe whole heartedly they are correct and some religions have a bigger following or at least similar numbers..u never know till the end. Di the bible teach religious tolerance..I don't see any here, god may exist in different manifestation for different people because people have different ways of interpreting the things..so everyone is wrong and everyone is correct. On the moral side yes wicca is morally correct in society and because we all live in different societies where christina vaules are not the be all and end all its hard to justify them as un-moral. Agree and to disagree..teach but don't preach....god will speak to people in different ways.....just learn to except other peoples differences and celebrate we can all talk nicly too each other abotu such things. Blessed Be

--Nothing, really. LaVeyan Satanism, the kind of Satanism most practiced, is atheistic. Wicca is highly theistic. LaVeyan Satanism encourages returning evil for evil. Wicca denies the right to do this.

BTW, there's no way Deuteronomy could have been referring to Wicca. It didn't exist at the time, and neither did its spiritual ancestors.
