I am waiting for the moment when Wiccan and Pagan meet Islam.

There was once an admonitions in the Old Testament, “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live” (Exodus 22:18). It may still be operative for the Muslims, but of course, they are bent of murdering all who hold even the least of variance with their “One True Path”.

But by general acceptance of a veneer of civility, MOST Judeo-Christian practitioners of the Abrahamic religions have pretty much given up the enforcement of this provision.

It is brutal, and probably, somewhere buried in other revelations contained in the writings of later prophets and theologians, mostly dead letter, as this provision differs sharply from the commandment “Thou shalt not kill”, and the later interpretation of the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
