when I post questions here they get ridiculed or deleted... Yahoo Answers can't delete e-mails, so I asked for those

there is probably a 90 percent chance that by the time that she is 18 she will have lost intrest in it. but that is not what you asked. the answer is noteasy, but in short it is yes. just in a different way. Wiccans are Pagan, they believe in more than one god, and usually worship a God and a Goddess. some however call themselves ChrostoWiccan and believe in God as a multi faceted being capable of many manifestations at a single time. and view all gods as part of one greater god. As for Attending Church being against the religion, Most Wiccans that i know make it a point to study other religions and to learn as much as possible from them. every religion has it's wisdom and something can always be learned from a day in the company of people that are different from yourself. Many Pagans do have a different belief in the creation of the universe than what the Christians do. I would reccomend that you buy a few books, preferably by Scott Cunningham. he is one of the foremost authors on Wicca. and read up on it for yourself. this way you will understand what it is that your daughter is doing. Wicca and several other forms of Paganism (I happen to be a Celtic Pagan) offer great insight into a spiritual life. but unfortunatly it is also exploited by hollywood and many teens get into it beause it has become the "cool" thing to be. they dabble for a few years, and when they do not see the things that they saw in the movies they become boared. and then either become Athiest or revert to a monothestic religion. some do find a connection to the gods, and they go on to lead very good lives. like i said read up on it and read well known authors, Scott cunningham and Silver ravenwolf are great for beginners. Know what the religion is about. I would bet that your daughter has a Wiccan friend that she is getting all of her information from. Learn the religion yourself, and know it. that way you will know what to look out for, and what types of practices are NOT of the religion.

SIX REASONS GOD EXISTS
1. Does God exist? The complexity of our planet points to a deliberate Designer who not only created our universe, but sustains it today.
2. Does God exist? The human brain's complexity shows a higher intelligence behind it.
3. Does God exist? "Chance" or "natural causes" are insufficient explanations.
4. Does God exist? To state with certainty that there is no God, a person has to ignore the passion of an enormously vast number of people who are convinced that there is a God.
5. Does God exist? We know God exists because he pursues us. He is constantly initiating and seeking for us to come to him.
6. Does God exist? Unlike any other revelation of God, Jesus Christ is the clearest, most specific picture of God pursuing us.
you should be ashamed. May he have mercy on your soul. Sorry to say you are ceratainly going to hell if u keep this up. and you dont wanna burn for all eternitiy. HAVE A GREAT DAY :-D

Why would that make you feel better? To know that others agree with you?
The question is still under consideration in my mind. I have long said that the pagan gods and goddesses I relate to are metaphors, symbols, not literally alive. But I see them as representative of a truth which is much more abstract and esoteric, so I suppose that truth might be called "God" in English. But in terms of believing that there is a creator-god who micro-manages our lives, I find that absurd.

Personaly I think of God as the energy that was there at the big bang (read Angels And Demons ) written by brown of the davinci code

If you really believe that, I respect that. You have a right to your opinion and I have no right to convince you otherwise. But why, like the others pointed out, do you need someone to approve of that to make you feel better?

God does exist, and he the one who allow you to wake up this morning, he made you of who you are, he is your all and all. God look over your doubtful feeling, because you don't know no better. Read the bible and it will give you more knowledge that God does exist.

Whether one believes in God or not is a personal choice. You should not have to have others to make you feel good. I am certain there are other folks who do not believe in God.

Pater noster, qui es in caelis:
sanctificetur Nomen Tuum;
adveniat Regnum Tuum;
fiat voluntas Tua,
sicut in caelo, et in terra.
Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie;
et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
Sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;
et ne nos inducas in tentationem;
sed libera nos a Malo.

I have news for you, God still does exist and is there, if you believe in Him or not. And one day, one way or the other, you will come to realize and know that He is real

No, but I'm happy to agree here and hope it's enough to make you feel better and less alone in an increasingly hostile and desperate theistic environment.
