People equate them because they don't understand either.
People think Wicca is all about dark magic, and goths are dark, so therefore they must be the same thing.
Hooray for narrow minded stereotyping.
I agree.I know serious, grown up wiccans , and they DO adore the light.To be able to help others, you yourself need to be in harmony with yourself.No they don't worship it, but i sometimes think poeple are only interested in being wiccan,because it is called "being a witch" emo


In all reality its just called being wiccan. Not all wiccans are witches and not all witches are wiccan. Wiccans practice wicca, witches practice witchcraft. Hell I get pissed off when I get called wiccan. I'm a witch and so very far from wiccan. Wow I need to shut up I know. sweatdrop
XD Actually, from what's told to me, witches are wiccan and the other way around.So could you explain your statement by Wikipedia or something?


Well I can explain it due to my personal experience of being a witch for over 11 years. Wicca is a religion that just happens to use witchcraft in their practice. Witchcraft is just a tool used in many pagan traditions to change their life through their Will. Yes there are witches who are wiccan but not all of us are. I am closer to being a Druid than a wiccan. Wicca isn't the only tradition out there. Its just the only one that gets the most attention because of shows like Charmed. Saying all witches are wiccan is like saying all christians are catholic.

that was a brilliant point, but isn't catholism a type of christianity anyway?

I haven't either, and I also want to see it (for information, not entertainment).

Yeah, be sure to watch with a sense of humor.

No offense, but I'd be willing to bet that it isn't the greatest site to explain Wicca. And I'd be willing to bet you aren't Wiccan. May I see the site? smile

That site really wasn't the best. Wicca = Fertility Cult

I was the same way a while ago. I was reading all the wrong sites, and didn't know what I was talking about. smile

Oh, damn i thought i was passed that DX I really don't want to give wrong information, I used to act like i kenw what i was talking about, but i really thought i realized i was doing that.I know the lay-out is amateuristic,could you explain what's wrong with the content?

I'm Wiccan. I'm a nocturnal witch though, I find magickal essence far easier and more powerful in the dark.

I found Wicca because I was always interested in witchcraft and then my mom showed me that there was an actual religion/lifestyle that matched!
