My opinion? It is a false religion and those who follow it are mistaken. Sorry that you seem to have had a bit of a hard time from other people, but you asked our opinion, and I’ve given mine.
Actually thats a fair point, do you go into Catholic churches with a ‘‘Hail to the goddess’’ T-shirt? If so that might explain a little
No. I wear a small Wiccan symbol (the Pentagram) on a necklace. I do not go around screaming, " I AM A WICCAN! HEAR ME ROAR!"
Because it worship creation instead of the creator, false gods, and in some cases is involved in the evil side of spirituality, from what I understand.
If a Catholic wears a cross, perhaps. However Protestants wear crosses too, and people with no religious affiliation. I know Hindus and Sikhs who wear rosaries with no thought at all to the religious implications.
Catholics are brought up to not only love Christ, and God, but also each other, the entirety of humanity. Some symbols the are a representation of negative acts or may cause spiritual harm are as in must Christian faith's frowned upon. We are also taught to be accepting and understanding to each others faith, as mislead as some may be.
Meditate and answer this; Q. If you had an anchor wrapped around your neck, and this anchor was the only thing causing your descent from the gates of heaven what would you do?
As Catholics we are all given the knowledge and resources for our own salvation, if if we make a conscious decision to ignore the guides and tools provided for our salvation, we are in effect condemning ourself.
If I were on that bus giving my knowledge and the history of the charm you wear around your neck I would not place judgment, for it is not my place to do so. I would want to make sure you understood the spiritual negativity that the charm represents.
If you decided to continue wearing it, you would now be consciously make a choice, by the power of free will bestowed upon us by our creator who will pass judgment when our day comes.
Over something as benign as wearing a symbol on a necklace, I wouldn’t even make a comment to a complete stranger.
Yes and at times I have been made to feel uncomfortable. I just ignore rude people. I know I am making a statement of faith and expect both + & - remarks.
Hi,
I don’t believe you. discrimination from **many Catholic Churches? ** What does that even mean?
Just my personal opinion. People are made by God to seek God, and they often seek him in religions that combine truth with falsehood. Paganism was one great instance of such a search.
