or is it just easier, more fun and an instant ego booster to simply prejudge and feel superior to something one knows nothing about?

It easier.
Jeez and I woke up this morning feeling pretty good about myself and now I find out that I'm evil.
Oh well.

I'm sorry, I don't completely understand the question....could you clarify?
Wicca and Satanic worship are 2 very different relgious beliefs.
Wiccan is a very nature based following, but condemned by few who understand it as being evil.
Satanic worship, is well..the worship of Satan. The embodiment of all that is evil in the eyes in Christian church.
Any who make any comparisions between the two obviously have very little factual information, therefore what they say regarding it should mean nothing to you.
Of course, there is a chance that my answer makes no sense....as I said, I'm not real clear on the question

THe Bible condemns all of the sort
Mediums, phycics, palm reading,furtune telling chanellers, star consulting, witchcraft, white magic, dark magic, all of this is Satanic in nature, even though one may not openly say they are involved with satanic things, because they don't know that it is dark and satanic.
When a person does this they open themselfs up to all sorts of demonic powers and even possesion...
If you don't believe me, watch some of the gost hunters on TV.
they are not ghost but demons.
And if you don't understand Satan and his demons are evil, are very real, and Christians have to fight them everyday and face attacks from them, in their heads, at work, and from other people.
One shoulden't have to consult the stars or a fortune teller when they can ask God Himself.
May God grant you wisdom, and may He show you the Truth.
God hates the sin And Loves the sinner. And I don't hate you, but I know the stuff that you are messing with is dangerous.
I am praying for you.

That's such an easy question.
Christians are taught that anything that doesn't come from God, comes from Satan. Thus, even if your religion claims it's NOT satanic and doesn't mention ANYTHING about satan, it's just Satan, lord of lies, lying to you. Not only is it easy, cut and dried, it's impossible to argue with.
Further, a lot of christians are loathe to do any research into your religion because they fear that Satan (who we've covered must logically be behind your religion) will try to corrupt them through his seductive ideas.
Personally, I feel that you can't expect the first point, while logically valid if one is a Christian, to convince anyone who ISN'T a Christian, so screaming about it is counterproductive and silly.
The second point ALSO makes little sense to me since, as a Christian, I have God helping me protect my faith so a little thing like reading works potentially corrupted by Satan shouldn't be enough to shake my beliefs.

Or, maybe they have researched it, and do find it to be evil. And you are equally predjudicial in instantly dismissing their arguements solely because they are Chrisitans?
The reasoning goes either way there, but I think you seek to preach to the choir, as it were. I hope I am wrong in this.
As far as religion goes, no matter what it is, islam is evil to jew, christian to jew, and christian to islam, etc.....
everyone thinks they have a monopoly on truth, true, but do not dismiss someone out of spite. Wicca is a very new religion, a hodgepodge of ancient religions all rolled into one neat little basket.

The Bible says that there is only one God, and last time I checked Wicca was a paganistic religion. I have done research and I have read the Bible and anything that defies God's will is Satanic. Next time you do research before you b i t c h.

Because it is easier to judge others than to try to make the effort to understand them. Also, we always have wrong stereotypes not just about Wicca but also Islam and hinduism

People in general, not only Christians, believe what they want to believe, and nine times out of ten, it is not true because they do not have all of the facts. This too irritates me, but there's not much we can do except be the bigger person. !)
Note: The bible is man-made people, we have to keep that in thought. Maybe man didn't want us to practice these things so he wrote it in the bible that it was sin.

It's their way of looking down their nose at everyone else's religion. They sometimes take it to extreme's and instead of saying "Oh, that's wrong." They say "OMG that's SATANIC". They have no idea what Wicca is about.

It all stems back to the superstition of witchcraft. Apparently living in tune with nature is considered this. Very confusing and I agree with you. And I'm Christian.
