Just Say No!   Last Update: Monday, January 29, 2001  They Say... Your faith isn't very strong if you chose Xianity out of reason and logic. If you were talked in to your faith, you can also be talked out of it!  This is a very troubling statement. You should always be willing to accept facts and reasoning that do not necessarily fall in line with your belief system. Reason and logic are the only things we humans have when it comes to making serious decisions - and there is nothing to be feared by finding out you may have made a wrong decision. This is how we learn. And any faith that requires you to believe in it, in spite of reason, is obviousely a dangerous belief system. Any faith you could not be talked out of (assuming the correct logic, reason, evidence, etc., were presented) is a faith that preaches self-brain-washing. They Say... Doubt is a demonic and evil thing. You should love God with all your heart - there is no room for doubting in our religion!  This is an even more troubling statement. Why shouldn't you doubt your own religion? Surely if your religion is based in truth, doubting your beliefs and searching for the right answer would only bring you back to God, with a stronger faith than ever. I would be very skeptical of a religion that tells you not to have doubts! They Say... Jesus Christ loved you so much that He died on the cross for your sins, so that all you must do is trust in Him to enter the kingdom of Heaven.  Hmmm.... Interesting concept. God on a stick.     In the Wiccan religion, the God(s)/Godess(es) are teachers, who help you to learn the secrets of existence. They accompany you on your journey through this life and any others.      Xianity teaches that someone already took the fall for you, where as Wicca teaches that salvation is attained through personal growth and expanded knowledge. In the Wiccan religion, there is no free ticket. There is no 'God on a Stick'.
