Are there any symbolic people in Wicca? I mean like Christianity has Noah and Jesus. Does Wicca have anything like that?

Someone just asked a question which book of the Bible to start with and one of the answers was to read the New Testament first because the old one is too violent and literal.
? Is it just me, or does that send an unpleasant message about the Bible?

No offense to the answerer, I know they meant well.

I am sick and tired of atheists saying that there was an evolution to the Devil when nothing could be further from the case. While it may be true that Jews don't currently believe in the Devil like we do, they once did believe in the same type of Satan that opposed the Lord like the kind that we Christians believe and there is plenty of evidence for that.

What happened was the Jewish religion fell apart a few hundred years before Christ which is why there are not any books of the Old Testament that take place right before the birth of Christ. This explains the gap.

There is NO evolution in the history of Satan.

What do you think?

Ideas about God copied from those written by man not counted.Women who carried the beginning of life for more than 9 months should know more about "giving birth" than men who merely wrote about it. Wanting their descendants to be as numerous as sand on the beach is definitely a man's idea.

As women push the envelop of human civilisation, women should demand that the world must be a better place for
them to bring forth new births.

As it is, a few hundred million men could not find a mate. Women need to evolve their thinking and bring about an
Alternative Order - a New God order. Banish men's fantasy
that this world will come to an end by their own hands(sins).

In a many dark hour
I've been thinkin' about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you
You'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.

Sorry for the last question, it's not my spelling, it's my keyboard acting up.

I want to know specific law suits that were brought against the church that supposedly led to the LDS church giving blacks the priesthood. All the anti-Mormons say that this was why, and I dont' know any specific suits.

The priesthood is NOT a civil rights issue, because it's not a job. II bet if you look hard enough, you won't find anything about any law suit. No one would have, because it would have been a violation of the first amendment.

The ones who commit every abomination in the "Book" but condemn the one (see: homosexuality) they don't?

The ones saying I'm intolerant for being intolerant of intolerance?

The ones who play football (pigskin), eat shellfish (anything without fins & a tail is an abomination), are haughty, or who have ever told a lie in all their lives.

Or is it the God they themselves have invented? He's the one preaching about "not casting the first stone" and then casting, casting and recasting.

Hmm.

... if the church was still a political power?
Remember Vesalius, Galileo, Copernicus? Do you think we´d have gone to the moon? Do you think we´d have medicine? Anesthesia? Democracy?
Is it coincidental that the industrial revolution more or less coincides with the separation of church and state in many countries?
Christians say that everything produced by science is there because god put it in the heads of the researchers. Why hasn´t he done that 7,500 years ago in Catalhoyuk (turkey) or in Ur?
Why wait millenia and millions of people suffering from easy (today) to cure illnesses.
The church is moving with a low profile these days because its political power is best used in the shadows. In its heyday didn´t it bully, burned, tortured, emprisonned for life, caused horrendous wars? Wouldn´t it do the same if it had the chance?
Look at the countries that went back to fundamentalism, Do they thrive?
Is that the future that you want for your kids?

The Bible says that God Created each kind of animal, to reproduce after it's kind. That's observable. That's provable. That's fact.
Evolutionists say that all living animals evolved from ameoba. That's not observable. That's not provable. Question is.....is it a fact?
The Bible says that dogs will produce only dogs. Cats will produce only cats. Horses will produce only horses. That has always been observed. We've never seen a dog come from a non-dog, or a dog producing anything other than a dog.
Evolutionists say that the dog, cat, horse and banana had a common ancestor. But they don't know what that ancestor was, what it looked like, or where it came from.
Main reason people believe in evolution, because the only other choice would be God, and they don't want to believe that's possible.
Do you believe that something, no one knows what or where it came from, brought forth all forms of life, or do you believe God Created everything? And why do you believe what you believe?

Okay, I have accepted the fact that I am gay, yet I sort of have a problem. I feel attracted to people my age (15), and yet, sometimes I will feel attracted to older men that are like 18-23(or around those ages), and I feel like there is something wrong with me, I mean, I don't feel attracted to men that are like 30 or 40 or or late twenties or over that. However, for some reason I feel attracted to teenagers, and young adult men. Basically I am attracted to 15-23(or around 23) year old males. Is this bad, or normal or what? I feel so confused.
