Witch's Evil
Posted: Mon Feb 17, 2020 8:20 pm
There are a few sins that can be committed in witchcraft which most witches would agree are actual sins—not just the exaggerations of the Christian ethic.
The first is skilless practice, which is exemplified in the anecdote of “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”. Basically, practice without mastery or a master present is dangerous, and should not be attempted.
The second is “dark” practice. That is prohibited by the Wiccan Rede. “And thou harm none, do as thou wilt.” Curses are particularly dangerous, and backfire if not done properly. You will often hear witches quoting the maxim “Love and Light”. Curses are prohibited in most every case.
Satanism is the bane of most practitioners as dark practice and a bigotted approach to Christianity are common in Satanism. Most witches, while not agreeing with Christian libel concerning the craft, are respectful of Christianity as a choice.
The third is subverting choice. No one should be forced into witchcraft or associating with witchcraft. Although witches wisely debate against the slander, they do not convert people or hard-sell the religion.
