One of the questions on Yahoo!Answers that makes me shake my head and sigh.

The trainwreck of answers that follows it boggles the mind.

Where do people GET some of this bullshit?

sigh...at least it's honest advertising. Answers by (mostly) random yahoos.

Sigh... indeed. Not only are the Christians wrong about Wicca, some of them are wrong about Christianity. Yes, even ones who include selected tiny excerpts from the middle of the Bible. I wouldn't ever take the words of people who can't be bothered to eally understand their own religion seriously when they're talking about another. And I always wonder what happens if you ask the same people to comment on Hinduism... I doubt it's nearly as much an instant "Yes they worship the devil!", and there's at least as much "excuse" to misinterpret *that* faith.

Although, to be fair, the Wiccans who say that the Devil is a Christian God, or that Christians are devil-worshippers as he's part of their religion - and aren't just using that snark to make a point about certain Christians' attitudes - are also wrong.

I would like to point out that I am not Wiccan!

It should be pointed out however that while *the* devil, Satan, is a Christian concept devils and demons are not unique to this religion and the idea of a supremely evil entity is not new. Judaism has Leviathan, the Babylonians had Tiamat. I'm sure there are others as well but those two were at the top of my head. Eastern religions, such as the Chinese, Japanese and various Middle eastern religions have a whole host of demons and devils many of whom are worshipped alongside the 'good' gods.

It seems like Christians are one of the few religions that can't accept the concept of mans duality.

Still, I think the guy was just trolling.
