| | | If this developes into "wiccan equal rights", I'm outta here. I actually dated a wiccan... They do (or at least she did) "cast spells" or curses, or at least claim to. FUCK THAT! Religion should have no place in the work place, its just not related to anything. She said she was proud to be a witch, sounds like she made it known she was a wiccan, her fault. You cant control what people think of you, but you can control what they know about you. All the places I have worked at had no idea what my beliefs were, except for a couple close coworkers of similar beliefs. And I liked it that way, I also had no desire to know what other people believed around me. If I were to let it be known what my beliefs are, Christian, Hind, Wicca, Islam, I better be prepared to be persecuted. Also, I dont think anyone thinks positively of wiccans... I mean, they worship the devil for crying out loud, what good can come from that??? Should someone be fired for their beliefs? No. They should be fired if they cant perform their job properly or impair the work of others. And in this case, she was striking fear into other coworkers, making for a fear based work environment. If I was a manager, I would fire/review the person causing the fear and worries. Anything that impairs productivity or moral of employees, needs to be addressed and taken care of. In this case, you cant change a persons beliefs or how people perceive them, so you remove the problem. What other choice do you have???

| | | I'm not a wiccan, but had a wiccan roomate. They do not worship the devil. They don't believe in the devil. At a teaparty I met a wiccan tea party member. She was as level headed a person I ever met. My roomate was a bit of, she was, well, off. But no, to clear it up, wiccans do not worship the devil, or christ, or God. Yes, they do practice "magic".

| "Spells" are no different than prayers. This should be an interesting discussion... Also, I dont think anyone thinks positively of wiccans... I mean, they worship the devil for crying out loud, what good can come from that???
| Why am I not surprised to read this? I could say that the Devil does not even exist in Wiccan beliefs, but I doubt that would make a difference. You claimed to have dated a Wiccan. Logic would suggest you must have learned SOMETHING from her. Apparently not. Now about the article: She accused Smith of following her on the highway one snowy evening after work and casting a spell on the heater of her car, causing it not to work. | This is painfully stupid. “He wanted me to go to ICMS and sit down with Mary and explain my religion to her,” Smith said. “I'm like, 'No.' I refused to do that. It's not up to me to teach her my religion. I mean, would I have to go down and sit with her if I was Jewish?” | She should have done this at least out of courtesy. She makes a point about not having to do that if she was Jewish, but if you run around calling yourself a witch while you're surrounded by thousands of people who have grown up seeing that "witch" is a bad thing, you're asking for trouble. The bottom line: Firing someone for being Wiccan is just as illegal as firing someone for being Christian. Educate yourselves. http://www.butler....dy-religion/wicca/ In 1986, a federal appeals court ruled that Wicca was a legal religion. Wicca is therefore now protected by the U.S. Constitution as are other religions. |

I insist that all evangelicals be fired from my workplace. They certainly should be barred from being president (especially since their beliefs mandate bringing on the end of the world). In fact, I might be okay with burning them too. Posted by Oryx

Very true. You have to put up with some stupid bullshit at work sometimes. Posted by Mr_Fiend Yeah... Because spells are always harmless and have positive intentions.

Dude, seriously. Look into getting some help with your anger issues. You say you are full of love, but literally every other post of yours is spewing externalized hatred which is coming from somewhere. It's either from your God or from you.

First off, you don't know what a Christian is. Second, I've never actually said "I'm a Christian". Thirdly, who are you to judge me??? Especially since you said YOU haven't even read the bible. Take a walk sir.
| This is terribly amusing. While reading the article and the description of her brand of Wicca, I actually thought of it as similar to your brand of Christianity. I actually thought that you might point this out yourself. Apparently not. And, I have read and studied the Bible, from beginning to end. It is an interesting collection of stuff.

| | | Posted by Mr_Fiend When have I ever conveyed "hatred" or anger????
|
I'm just restating what I have said a number of times before: you attribute everyone else's actions to hatred. It's very creepy. Posted by Mr_Fiend I'm not the one saying I want to see Christians burned
|
Wow. Really? Do you not get the witch joke? Posted by Mr_Fiend Maybe if you were without fault, I would take your criticism seriously.
|
So, you only take criticism from jebus. Gotcha. There is a noticeable lack of anyone discussing the actual workplace harassment that happened here. Oh wait, it's ok for Christians to bash anyone, nvm.

| I don't know what a Christian is? Boy, do you assume much. Shall I outline Christianity for you? First there was the old testament, And it outlined creation an all this other stuff like rules having to do with animal sacrifice and whatnot. Then Christ appeared on the scene. He did a bunch of stuff or had stuff attributed to him, then was crucified. His teaching spread by word of mouth from his followers. Much of "his" teachings were written down post death, and collected. Here is the fun part: Those who wanted to take power edited these teachings, destroying much of what didn't fit into their grand scheme. Things that would produce thinkers. See, these people wanted lambs. There have been a few of these teachings that survived, but the church will not recognize them. Because doing so would be admitting to wrong doing. That is backstory. A Christian is one who follows the words of "Christ". Didn't need to outright out yourself. Enough is learned by what you say. So don't hide behind vagueness as if it gives strength. It doesn't. Right, I didn't read the bible and neither have you. So we are in a stalemate in that regard. My Judgment comes from your passive beliefs and the stereotypes it creates in your mind. The unfounded hate that hides under this guise of love. You think you can save people. That you know better. THAT IS NOT LOVE. That is ego. Love and the way it operates shuns your thinking by the very fact of it being thought. Love acts from a place of trust and intimacy. With your views, you place distrust on the person and their own path.
