How the h**l do you knock some sense into people?

Question

not a witch, im a magician

Answer 1

I think its mainly from fairy tales and Christianity, cause Apparently Witches are bad because the worship the devil, even though the devil, satan, lucifer etc were creations of Christianity, but when were they ever wrong?

Answer 2

Its good to vent.  :)

Some people just have different views and were raised to believe different things.  And that is ok..

Don't let it get under your skin, just be happy with who you are and what you believe.  Just as long as its not hurting anyone else, then just be who you want to be.  You make your happiness...and..the same goes for your step mom..she has the right to be who she wants too. ;)  You can't change people if they don't want to be changed.

Answer 3

all types of magic are consider a sin

Answer 4

So I guess love is a sin because it is magical!  People fear what they choose not to educate themselves about and they won't educate themselves because they have only one book they are drug to church and forced to read by their parents.  Witches are not evil or bad, karma would kick their butts over and over again if they were.  Harm none means just that, harm none with words or actions, kill nothing, no not even bugs.  I feed the antbeds, it keeps them home and out of our yard because they travel only around the mound to find the food they need to survive.  I know many wiccans and they are kind, toleran and loving people.  It is difficult to dedicate yourself to living a life where you say nothing bad about anyone else, or hurt anyone or anything, the christians should actually try it since they are so intolerant and judgmental.

Oh, and there is no devil, evil lives in the human soul, you either choose it or you don't, the devil didn't make you do it, you did.  It's a choice, free will, ya' know.

Answer 5

A little humour I take it what is already known by you. Cough step Mother Earth is Mother to use all.  Unless you have one like Glinda The Good or Terry Prachett's Nanny Ogg there are none.

If you want to see some upsetting of Witchwise Apple Carts then you could try Wyrd Sisters which parodies Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Answer 6

'Sense' is as much about a person's ability to accept it as 'sense' as it is about telling people. Giving a lecture on the affects of super-cooled neutrons to a kindergarten class can be construed as passing on knowledge, but what good does it do anyone in class, since they haven't even gotten to the concept of what happens when water freezes, much less about smaller and more difficult subjects.

If you are as smart as you think you are, you should realize that people accept the truths of life as they are ready for them. And the problems between the educated and uneducated go far deeper than simply how something works or why such-and-such should be protected instead of ravenously exploited. There are many reasons why people are uneducated, or choose the education level they do. In fact, many uneducated people do not seem themselves that way, which is a perspective that isn't going to be changed by someone, also thinking they aren't uneducated, who simply says to them 'you're wrong.'

Magick is as deep as the person's mind who sees it. Shallow water doesn't cancel out deep water, and vice versa. People don't learn to swim (usually) by simply being thrown in deep water, they start shallow and safe and work their way towards the deeper depths. If the shallow swimmers say deep water is dangerous, maybe its because they are speaking the truth as they know it, and thus makes it true for them. If so-and-so says magick is a sin, they can also say the Earth is flat or that its only 65 days old. Believing the Earth is flat doesn't make it so, so why should the beliefs of people who believe things that, later on, will be disproven or discounted be taken away now?

Children cling to their blankets until its time to let them go, and even imaginary blankets serve a developing mind.
