These people are out in the middle of a 180 acre wooded area, How does the community know anything illegal is going on out there unless they have been there? Be honest, they are after these people because they dont like what they believe in.

Yes, that's the only reason. Have you ever heard "An it harm none, do thy own will"? That is the fundamental commandment of paganism except for Satanismm it is "Do thy own will shall be the whole of the law". Don't the people of the community have the right to do their own will too? It is their will not to have witches in their community practicing their version of "do thy own will". That is quite a blank check to have and even in a free country there are limitations as to what religious freedom buys you.

Oh, so the community can boot some people because they do not like their religious beliefs? You'd be the first screaming when the local chapter of born again Pentacostals got booted. Because their brand of brainwashing is ok, right?

Do thy own will shall be the whole of the law

Liberalism leads to this!

Doesnt sound like a conservative to me. And yes there are limits to religious freedom, when the practice of religion violates the law (ie human sacrifice). None of which was done here by these people. You are opening up a HUGE pandora's box here. I will remind you every time on every other thread that you post on, that in this thread you have stated your opposition to religious freedom, and by default have lost your right to protest whenever a majority liberal community decides that Christians practicing their religious beliefs, violates the "spirit of the community." You have just lost your ability to defend: anti-abortion protests, the banning of christmas or nativity scenes from public property and any other christian cause that is deemed appropriate. You have also lost your voice in opposing any liberal town board's attempt to evict, remove or take the voice away from any conservative religious elements or houses of worship in the community. If you do otherwise, you are simply a hypocrite.

Of course you cannot do anything in the name of religion, such as killing, raping or stealing. However, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT THESE WICCANS WERE DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL! I defy you to show me otherwise.

Wiccans are NOT Satanists. Two DIFFERENT religions. You may argue that they have the same source, Satan, but they are NOT the same religion. Satanism is more of a dogmatic humanism than a real religion. Once again I defy you to show me different.

You see, in this country, there is a Constitution that provides for religious freedom, and practice of that freedom. However, it seems that in your sad little world, this only applies to people who are Christian.
