Yes I sometimes make that mistake, I realise there are various forms of modern paganism (Norse, Celtic, Druidic, Hellenic, Slavic, Wicca, Asatru etc etc) but in many forms of Wicca et al. as has been pointed out above, there is an adoption of other gods from other traditions, sort of syncreticism as with Santeria, Vodoun etc.
Well, in Asatru, the proper term for the neo-pagan form of the Norse religion, there is no official place for witchcraft. There is no official* faith either, but anyhoo…
I am christian, and I am terrified of God, but if He sees fit to damn me for sticking up for a pagans free will when hes being put down, then, I will go peacefully
Says right there witches worship Odin as a god, I go with the book.
No one has free will in the end. You either repent and go to Heaven or off to the Lake of Fire.
That’s not true - there is Seiðr.
There are those that seek the truth and those that do not. I challenge you to seek the truth.
youre right no one has free will
If you are unafraid/willing to go to Hell, which as you said is a ‘‘one way ticket’’ (while you condemned me) then something is the matter with your faith.
If Gods making him do that then God’s making me do this. Don’t bother us about it.
Im afraid to go to hell, but if its Gods will, let it be done
Go then. I didn’t bash him. And most members welcomed him. He didn’t get what he asked for, which was a crusade against him.
Right. But that doesn’t play such a central role in Asatru as witchcraft does in Wicca.
Good. If you pursue it honestly an atheist position will no longer be tenable.
That I regard quite differently, but I don’t want to turn this thread into just another useless atheist-theist discussion.
Then you have taken the truth out of your search.
Not that I am surprised, but you don’t want me to seek the truth - you want me to find your (apodictic) truth.
Wow. Can anyone say Pharisee? Goodness man. We should never stop showing the love of Christ.
