(continued) but when men have been elevating their gender to the level of gods since the advent of Judaism, so we're taking about 7,000 years now, you do not see Judaism and forgive me, Christianity, as being the arrogant assumption of men that if they heard the voice of God, they must have heard Him say "he," every single time "He" spoke. Really? All of creation and the only woman present in it is a human teenager used as, pardon me, but essentially an incubator.

The point is that it appeals to women who believe they have a certain inherent power as women, not because they each think they're goddesses.

Hello,

I haven't gotten past the first page of the interview that is part of this article yet, and I have not read the book, but I found this article while Googling a related subject. I wanted to mention that in just the first page, you already have two things wrong and slanted by your strictly Christian perspective.

One, you are mistaken, it is not the "primary god" who has a cohort who is a goddess. I guess you're so accustomed to your male-dominated perspective and thinking that normal that you cannot see past it. No, Wicca has a primary GODDESS and the God is HER cohort. The Goddess is first, the God is second.

Next, your assumption that women want to be "elevated to the level of goddesses and that is why Wicca appeals to so many women." I understand that this sounds both natural and logical to you so it's hard to really convey why this is a problem. Why would it be that you can see women egoistically wanting to elevate themselves as goddesses for thinking there is one

I am asking the authors or other a question ==Do Christians have any concerns of dangers from Wicca or its practices as to do they have any power to 'hurt' belivers =because my town is is very popular and some have come out of the woodwork openly in the local newspapers??

Oh, no, please don't. No cracks against "Supernatural." As television shows go, "Supernatural" is the one that almost gets it right spiritually, especially in this newest season.

If you're going to use a television show as an example, go with "Buffy" or "Angel." Wicca is highly prevelant in both and they're still watched religiously by a lot of people.

Other than the untrue judgement against "Supernatural," I agree completely.
