But my assumptions may be incorrect. I just wanted to draw a line that could show the contrast between the relatively new "Wicca" movement and the way-before-Christ original Shamanic cultures (something that is redundant if we recall that at its core, the first "modern human" societies were... Shamanic). But we may as well make a disambiguation here, I was focusing my reply on the "naturalistic" (as implying Shamanic teachings) aspects of the "Wicca" movement, which is more then that (often referred as "Neopaganism"). I may have oversimplified my reply... but nobody reads lengthy posts ^^

your right, most people don't read the lengthy posts but as you assumed yea i believe wicca is only around 30 or so years old, so relatively new, unlike the shamanic beliefs that span back many years

And speaking of that thread you were the only one to make the connection between my beliefs and the three names (and how many hell hounds be left) that I posted. It's rare to see such an individual among such clueless people, truly rare... Yet do you see how some would want to burn me at the stake for things they attribute to me, things that are not me and never would be me? But you and Inkster should know that I'm not Wiccan. No, my practice is much more solitary and more dark, as I'm sure you know... Quote:
Man has lost his connection to nature, for we see the signs of it every where... And he has exchanged the gift of earth and the wisdom that she may impart to him for objects that only dims his vision and sucks the life from his soul... Yet, man is about to meet his destiny though he know it not... You truly are wise Signatus beyond your years - child of light! However, don't be so quick to discredit the power of my hell hounds |

On a more serious note, what did you expect when you treat almost everyone between the despicable and the abhorrent (not to mention the famous "twat" and the more recent "boy")? Quote:

With regards to yourself been Wiccan, glad that was clarified.
In refernce to Quote:
On a side note, in England where im from Witches were never burnt at the stake. The English were far more civilized about the whole affair..... The accused was tortured, drowned, hanged but never burnt at the stake. How civilised the English were about it. (yes i am been ironic here)

if a woman was being suspected of being a witch they would tie rocks around her and dump her in the ocean at the docks, if she would float she was a witch, if not she was telling the truth when she complained. If she was a witch she was burned XD |
