I am Wiccan, am I evil?

Question

Or am I good?

Answer 1

Considering that you're slipping back into old habits (the ones you were so apologetic for a week ago), do you really want an honest answer to that?

Why do you continue to invite such negativity into your life?

Answer 2

Well, if you are truly Wiccan, then you are good. Wiccans live by a strict rule of "harm none". I have yet to meet an bad Wiccan. However, for people that practice and use their knowledge to harm another, then that is bad and will eventually come back on that person.
Also, good and evil are often in the eye of the beholder. Most fanatical, conservative christians believe that anyone who isn't christian is bad and therefore must be evil.

If you are truly Wiccan, then you are a good person!

Answer 3

For the record, I have NEVER met an "evil" wiccan. The ones I have known were very health, people, and Earth conscious, and they were always helping others in some way. I don't know you personally, but no one I've known who practices Wiccan is evil. Hey, at least Wiccans aren't killing other people in the name of God. Now that's evil.

Answer 4

There is good and evil in any religion. your choice of religion doesn't make you either. It's your actions and your heart. All the Wiccans I know are amazing human beings with huge hearts. But I suppose there could be some who are not so nice. of all the religions I think paganism makes the most sense and it's certainly one with great respect for others and gives freedom to believe what you want....Harm none is the rule....can evil come from that? so, no I don't think your evil! :) like my LOOOONG answer?

Answer 5

Wiccan doesn't mean that you are evil. You can be any religion and be evil, it is not the religion that you practice that makes you so. It is the intent with which you practice it. You could be a Christian and be evil if you are using the religion in a malicious manner. You are not evil because of your religion.

Answer 6

As a Wiccan neither. As a person probably both. Your belief doesn't determine whether you're good or evil.

Answer 7

Doesn't Wicca use the power of Mother Nature or the sort? If so, that's not really evil..black magic, voodoo - I think that's evil...but not Wiccan, from what I know of it anyway.

Answer 8

If you follow the Wiccan Rede and your intentions are good, then you are good. Do not listen to the ones who would call you evil.

Answer 9

Let's take another example--sometimes things are easier to see when they are not personal. Let's take a woman who is married to a loving husband, and who the has intercourse with someone other than her husband. Is she evil? I don't know--I think that's up to her. But is what she did evil? It was morally wrong if she had all three of the following conditions met: a sufficiently grave act, full consent of her will, and full knowledge of what she did. Clearly, having sex outside of her marriage is a grave--serious act. But let's say for example, someone put a gun to her head and raped her. That is not full consent of her will--she was forced to do that. Consequently, there is no sin involved in such a situation. Now, what if she wasn't raped, but she was so drugged that she didn't even realize what was happening. She may be culpable for having become so drugged up depending on the circumstances (again, did she do it to herself or did someone drug her drink), but she didn't have full knowledge as to what was happening--she didn't even remember it the next day.
Anyway, I am using this hypothetical woman as a symbol. You are that woman. You are married to the most perfect man in the world--the Lord, Jesus Christ. He loves you unconditionally and without reserve. You have chosen not to return His love--at least not right now--and you have seeked a different lover. Why is that? Perhaps you were forced into Wicca? Or perhaps you have fallen for a false good--something which you thought was superior but is really inferior to Our Lord. If the latter, then you lack full knowledge. But to continue to seek truth is everybody's calling in life, for Truth is God Himself and when sought with a pure, humble and willing heart, we will always find Him. You will too.

P.S. You are also the Samaritan woman in John 4. She wasn't just talking about "sleeping around" as it is often interpretted. She was talking about her religious beliefs and so was Jesus. And when she said she was thristy, she wasn't just looking for water, either:)

Quotes about Wicca:

"We are not evil. We don't harm or seduce people. We are not dangerous. We are ordinary people like you. We have families, jobs, hopes, and dreams. We are not a cult. This religion is not a joke. We are not what you think we are from looking at T.V. We are real. We laugh, we cry. We are serious. We have a sense of humor. You don't have to be afraid of us. We don't want to convert you. And please don't try to convert us. Just give us the same right we give you--to live in peace. We are much more similar to you than you think." Margot Adler

"When one defines oneself as Pagan, it means she or he follows an earth or nature religion, one that sees the divine manifest in all creation. The cycles of nature are our holy days, the earth is our temple, its plants and creatures our partners and teachers. We worship a deity that is both male and female, a mother Goddess and father God, who together created all that is, was, or will be. We respect life, cherish the free will of sentient beings, and accept the sacredness of all creation." Edain McCoy>

Sounds benign to me.

Answer 11

Depends. Most people who use spiritual power, usually find
out it's disasterous to use it wrong. And they only use it for right.
There are a few unfortunates who reach a level a power where
they can do evil, and it doesn't destroy them. From what I've
learned, they usually turn into "psychic vampires" that hang
around the Earth, sucking the life out of others, trying to maintain
their existence, so they won't fall into the abyss.
