Answer 1

Don't worry, he's just messing with you. Witchcraft doesn't work that way. And Wicca (which is both a form of Witchcraft, and also a serious religion) has lots of rules against doing something like that. It really is a nice, and peaceful nature religion. This little Baby-Bat goth kid is no Wiccan. Hopefully, he'll grow up, and either take the Craft more seriously, or move on to something else. This crap just furthers the Christian stereotype that Wiccans and Pagans are just a bunch of devil-worshiping teen rebels. Not true, not true at all!

Answer 2

Wicca is an earth centered religion. Wiccans have a "commandment" that goes "An it harm none, do as you will". Whatever the goth person is, I don't think he is Wiccan, if he is, then he is going against the rede, and will suffer bad Karma as a result. More likely he is trying to win an argument with you by threatening and bullying you, and although such things as turning people to ashes may be possible, anyone who has to resort to threats of that sort in an attempt to win an argument, doesn't have the talent or power to pull off anything of the sort, or he wouldn't have to resort to such threats in the first place. If he doesn't have the intelligence, or the magick within to win the argument of it's own merit, then he doesn't have it for anything else either.

Answer 3

{{He was just trying to creep you put. If he practiced witchcraft, which I sincerely doubt, he would be a Warlock. Wicca, on the other hand, is a religion that believes strongly in nature.}}

What is it you are saying here? are you trying to say that a male Witch is called a Warlock? WRONG!!!!!!
A Witch can be either male or female. And Witchcraft IS different from Wicca.

And to answer the actual question, I doubt that this person even knows what he's talking about.
As someone else said, if he had the power to do that, he would have the power to win the argument without resorting to such threats. He's a bully, a rather ignorant one at that.
I would ignore him and avoid him as much as possible, only because I sure wouldn't want to be around him when his negative energy comes back at him.

Answer 4

Hi, I researched something about wicca for you, I hope you appreciate it.

Wicca

The first world religion to originate in England, Wicca represents a new religious expression inspired by pre-Christian ethnic and tribal religions. The word wiccan as a plural for witch was used in Old English; its singular forms were feminine wicce with the masculine form as wicca. Pronounced with hard C's instead of the former "witch-a," the term Wicca was adopted by Gerald Gardner and other English Witches in the 1940s to distinguish their life-affirming and fertility-based Pagan religion from Satanism or individual sorcery.

Although Wiccan writers are prolific, Wicca has no sacred texts as such to guide belief and practice. Most Wiccans view the Divine as dual (male/female) or plural, accept the idea of reincarnation, and see the natural world as a manifestation of divine force rather than as something created by a transcendent god. Attunement of the self to natural cycles through seasonal rituals is Wicca's central public religious practice.

Wicca as a religion has no central authority nor organization, although various umbrella groups such as the Covenant of the Goddess in North America and the Pagan Federation in the United Kingdom include many individuals and groups. The primary organization remains the coven, ideally numbering thirteen persons but in actuality often comprised of fewer. Because of Wicca's rapid growth, however, some adherents now seek more formal organizational plans and credentialing of leaders (priests and priestesses), a trend resisted by those Witches who hold individual and small-group practice and experience to be primary. Wiccans often identify with a particular "tradition"—a school of teaching or an initiatory lineage—but the boundaries between traditions are loosely drawn, and new traditions are constantly being created.

Estimates of the number of Wiccans in North America in 2000 ranged from 300,000 to the low millions. Sociological studies of Wicca show its followers as tending to be younger and better-educated than the population overall.

With regards to your Gothic-wicca practitioner friend, don't worry, he's all talk. There is no way for him to conjure fiery elements that will turn you to ashes, unless, he'll physically burn you. It's your mental-conditioning that causes you to react with what he's saying, and that could lead to paranoia and dellusion, and dellusion to trauma.

I suggest that you put your trust in Jesus Christ since no one can ever harm you when you put your trust on Him.

Answer 5

I have a friend who is Wiccan. I don't really ask him much about it, but I am interested in it. I believe Wicca, is just a religion, that is based on the elements. I don't know if they believe in the same god that christians do, but they worship several gods. They also use rituals more than pagans I believe. Well I hope that helps. And I'm sure most of that is correct..I told you want I know. Thank you for sharing your question =)

Answer 6

Wicca is a religion found in various countries throughout the world. It was first popularised in 1954 by a retired British civil servant named Gerald Gardner[1] after the British Witchcraft Act was repealed. He claimed that the religion, of which he was an initiate, was a modern survival of an old witchcraft religion, which had existed in secret for hundreds of years, originating in the pre-Christian Paganism of Europe.

Answer 7

In wicca its to do with the practitioner of it if they have evil thoughts or intentions it reflects in what they do, if they have a good heart they will do no harm, however if they are a true wiccan they should follow the wiccan rede which states " an harm ye none do as thou wilst" which translates to whatever you do, don't do it to harm anyone.

Answer 8

Wicca is a contemporary spiritual religion, based on and reviving the ancient pre-Christian pagan religions of Europe. Wiccans believe in a divine force or power as the source of all. It is both immanent and transcendent while encompassing the whole universe. Therefore the world and all aspects within the world, "nature" and "life itself" in particular, are considered sacred.

Wiccans use ancient and modern ceremonies, rituals and shamanic practices to attune themselves to the natural rhythms of nature, the world, and the universe in their efforts to commune with this divine force.

To communicate with the force, Wiccans believe it to be manifest in the form of a Goddess and God. As they emanate from the same source, both retain equal power, hence equal status. By manifesting the power in two deities (Goddess and God), the natural balance of opposites, cause and effect are retained, e.g. Summer/winter, light/ dark, life and death etc. Each opposite is essential to maintaining the balance and rhythm of life on earth.

During ritual ceremonies and while working with magick, Wiccans call on many other deities. All other deities (the names of which are endless) are in essence merely differently named aspects of the same Goddess and God.

Answer 9

He was just trying to creep you put. If he practiced witchcraft, which I sincerely doubt, he would be a Warlock. Wicca, on the other hand, is a religion that believes strongly in nature.

Answer 10

Don't worry about it. Wiccanism was invented in the 50s, same with Scientology. If you really want to worship what your ancestors worshipped, then be a pagan .
