Wicca is not traditional. It is invented out of whole cloth, as I mentioned. It certainly deserves protection as far as being able to practice it, as long as no laws are broken. But it is not in the category of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism and other monotheist religions.

Have you read up on Gardiner, the inventor of Wicca?

You say that "I" used to burn people...???

BTW, I am a longtime student of the Vedas.

Yes, he's the inventor of the name, and a reason for revival, but the basic premises of the religion go far back. Consider it a pagan denomination. I also know many Wiccans, and none of them even care about Gardiner or ascribe to him any authority.

Sorry, I assumed Christianity, as is common on this board.
