Wiccan Defense Manual Outlines Christian Campaign to Eliminate

Wiccan Defense Manual Outlines Christian Campaign to Eliminate
Minority Religions



Who would have believed that American Christians at the beginning of
the 21st Century would be claiming to be relentlessly persecuted and
insisting the only remedy is to dismantle the separation of Church and
State? After being voted into office by a majority of Americans,
Christian Conservatives are acting as if they have a mandate to
nominate and confirm that the judiciary of the United States should
draw its members only from self-proclaimed People of Faith, who
reassert Christ as the true Lord of America.


One voice in stark contrast to this mandate is that of the Rev Ed
Hubbard. He points out in the book 'Witch Wars Defense Manual,' that
"when Christians allow men of pure faith to become judges of state
law, and believe themselves to be enforcing God's Law, people are
tortured, maimed, imprisoned, enslaved and killed as Witches, Pagans
and Heathens. It is a sobering thought to remember." As a Wiccan
Priest and a Practicing Witch, he feels that he has to protect the
freedom he has had, as well as that of his community, as Christian
Conservatives attempt to roll back progress made by minority
religions.


As Christian leaders are moving to control more and more of our
everyday life, a religious movement known as Wicca is growing at a
phenomenal rate. Wiccans are also known as Witches and are
practitioners of a natural faith that includes Witchcraft. By some
accounts Wiccans may represent 500,000 to 600,000 Americans and more
are joining daily. The difficulty for Wiccans is that Christian
ministers insist that Wiccans, members of a legally recognized
religion, would be denied all public access. They are insisting that
Wicca be eliminated and even criminalized. With such harsh attitudes
the whole concept of freedom of religion is being questioned and
tested to see if truth will hold up as our founding fathers intended.
The threat to our core freedoms is now. We must understand that the
Christian Conservatives have a very different point of view, a belief
in God and Christ, and the belief that they were appointed to Serve
God and America. You need only look at recent headlines to see this is
becoming increasingly true.


This point is illustrated by the recent speech by California Supreme
Court Justice Janice Rogers Brown as reported in the Stamford
Advocate, where she insisted that people of faith were embroiled in a
"war" against secular humanists who threatened to divorce America from
its religious roots. In her speech, she said, "There seems to have
been no time since the Civil War that this country was so bitterly
divided. It's not a shooting war, but it is a war; Brown is also a
Federal Appellate Court Judge Nominee.



Another purveyor of faith is Matthew Staver, a religious-right lawyer
who recently argued a church-state case in front of the Supreme Court,
who stated that his main purpose is to remove all separation of church
and argues, "The term `separation of church and state' is an easy
hook. People hear it, they think of the First Amendment. It's like the
line `Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee,' and you think of
Muhammad Ali. But there's no separation phrase in the First Amendment
... Interpreting it that way is laughable." When you combine Brown and
Staver's attitudes toward interpreting law and religion, disaster
results.


One such disaster could be similar to the one the Fourth Circuit Court
of Appeals created by basically confirming that you can discriminate
against minority religions. They did this by reversing the lower court
decision, offering that discrimination in the selection of people to
deliver prayers at government meetings is permissible.The case in
question is over Chesterfield County, which has a policy that allows
its religious community to sign up for a list of those who can be
asked to deliver opening prayers at board of supervisors meetings, and
that only religious leaders who practice within the Judeo-Christian
tradition are allowed to pray. The policy thus permits Christians,
Jews and Muslims to offer the invocations - but excludes those from
other religions. It was already used to exclude the Wiccan Cynthia
Simpson from offering such prayer, which led to this lawsuit. If the
policy is left in place, it would exclude Wiccans, Hindus, Buddhists,
Native Americans and a number of other religious groups from being
able to participate. If the Supreme Court eventually hears the case
and reaffirms the Fourth Circuit's decision, then this means other
governmental bodies could create similar policies nationwide. Minority
religions have something to fear from the current political
environment, Wiccans more than most. Wiccans worry to what degree will
Christians go to suppress the Wiccan Faith which, at its core,
believes in our Founding Fathers vision and their work represented in
the Constitution. The Christian Conservative movement has no plan or
place for any faith other than their own. Just ask them.


In the "Witch Wars Defense Manual," Hubbard lays out the ideas,
tactics, and weapons of Religious Psychological Warfare in
understandable language. Subjects range from Wiccan Infighting to How
and Why Christians Suppress Minority Faiths, especially Wicca, and
describes in detail the Jesus Taboo that is gripping this country.
Furthermore,  the Defense Manual lays out the Christian Agenda through
the year 2012, and the dark future it portends for the world. It is
today's most provocative book and one of tomorrow's biggest
controversies.
