To start I am a 15-year old Christian.I know little to nothing about witchcraft/wicca/whatever it is.I apologize for my ignorance, as I do not intend to offend.I am not looking to convert, but I don't want to be ignorant, so feel free to fill me in on what you'd like.So I have a few questions if you don't mind answering:1. Are witches real?2. Do you believe in magic?3. Does this magic have noticable effects?4. Do you consider this to be evil?5. Do you view this as a religion?6. How do you feel about other religions?7. What made you get into this?I'm not looking to convert, I'd just prefer not to be ignorant.

1. are you talking about harry potter witches, or wiccans who call themselves witches?the latter you could say are "real"2. not answering, because this is not my religion, but i have heard some wiccans say they practice magic and others who think that calling it magic is ****, mainly because it implies either the use of wands levitating objects or people pulling rabbits out of hats3. can't answer4. wiccans, as a rule, wish not to harm anyone, just like christians5. wicca is a religion6. this would be personal opinions7. not menot pagan/witch/or wiccan, just thought i'd help out anyway (:

1. No2. No3. N/A4. N/A5. No6. All religions are equal7. Get into what?

1. Yes.2. "Believe" is not a word in my spiritual vocabulary. I acknowledge Magick.3. Yes.4. Evil is a subjective term.5. Magick? No. It is a practice which can be and is used by any religion.6. I admire them all without exception.7. A deep, deep personal affiliation with Occult philosophy.

1. Yes, witches are real, in the sense there are people who call themselves witches and practice what they call witchcraft.2. No.3. Spells can affect caster and observer, just like prayers can affect the person who is praying, and the one who is listening, and for similar reasons.4. No.5. It can be, yes. It can also be a way for teenagers to bug their parents.6. Six of one, half-dozen of the other.7. I'm not. I'm answering your questions as an observer.

Answers:1.Yes2.There is magic3.Yes it does4.It is evil:Exodus 22:18 :Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live5.Yes it is a religion (False)

1) Yes, witches are real. Though not in the sense of green skin and flying monkeys. The term 'witch' in this aspect refers to a person who practices spell work.2) I believe in magic, I have practiced magic.3) My magic has always worked within the guidelines I set forth for it.4) Very few things do I consider evil: rape, murder, treachery, and hatred, are a few examples.5) Witchcraft is not my religion, it is part of my religion.6) I feel that the gods have the right to show themselves to individuals and certain groups however that god chooses. I am not one to challenge that god, and I would consider it to be insulting to a god if I attempted to force an image upon him or her.7) We were doing a report on ancient civilizations in HS, we had to pick one aspect of ancient life, I chose religion.-PaganEdit : Brilliant, check your languages/translations, "thou shalt not suffer a poisoner to live"

1. yes2. yes3. yes4. no5. yes6. people have the right to believe what they want.7. i'm not a witch, but a pagan who pratices different areas, some would consider those areas to be witchcraft. i do what i believe is right, and that's how i "got into this"i cant wait to see what the christians have to say about these questions.lol

Even though I am not wiccan, I have had experience with the force called magic. I don't know what it is or exactly where it comes from, but it is there.:okes her leg::1.Yep I am pretty real.2. Magic is not something you simply do, it is something you are.3. Yes.4. No5. Religion as a way of life? Either it is your life, or it isn't..I do not worship gods.6. I have no problem with religions as long as they do no harm to me or other humans. No malicious harm to animals is included. 7. Personal observations. First came the idea, then came the energy and the knowledge to use it. I feel connected to nature, I feel there is more than meets the eye, just don't claim to know what it is.. I am agnostic full time, but the kitchen witchery comes out when necessary.

1. Yes, but they're not the kind of Witches as on TV and in fairy tales.2. Yes, but not the kind of magic on TV and in fairy tales3. Yes... when you make an herbal tea for a sore throat, it heals it. When you meditate on a blue candle to relax, your mind goes into a calmer state. Magic is natural. 4. No, not at all.5. I am Wiccan, which is a religion that embraces the practice of Witchcraft and I practice it within my religion, so for me that would be yes. Not all Witches practice the craft spiritually, though.6. I think that all paths lead up the same mountain, all are equally valid. We all need a way to attune with the Divine source that makes sense to us-- one size fits all religions don't work or we'd all agree. 7. Several years of spiritual seeking, I found this to be the best path for me.
