Witches and Religion
Witches and Religion can be a subject that confuses some people, as most people do not assimilate witches as having a religion or that witchcraft may be derived from a religious aspect. In fact Wicca is the religion of witches or as some prefer to be known as Wiccans; just as Catholics belong to the Catholic faith, Wiccans belong to Wicca! If you believe in something Spiritual then you are in some part religious and witches are indeed very spiritual.
The witch’s religion comes with no dogma attached, it is free and unrestricted, and this too can be hard for some to understand as religion and dogma have come down thru the ages hand in hand for hundreds of years. Witches see everything as sacred, the forces of nature, and all life and even that which most do not see as living, like crystals, rocks etc are respected and honoured by a witch. All is to be celebrated and witches feel empathy when a tree is cut down unnecessarily, or when an animal or bird is injured or killed, over the pillaging of our oceans to kill whales, just to give you an example.
