The lot of U may not know me cuz I dun post here all that often! Have been busy and am sorreh for that!

That is correct...recently I struck up a convo about Christanity in a Wiccan guild owned by my Best friend's Girlfriend!

I'm not Wiccan myself! But the guild is owned by a good friend and I joined to educate myself on Wicca and Paganism! A lot of muh friends are Wiccan/Pagen and I wanna try and help em! But yaya it's kind of unfamiliar territory! So if ya'll can pray for me and stuff it would be GREAT!!! ThX & GoD BleSS^.~

Thanks man! it means a lot. I would enlist more help but this situation is a delicate one. Espically since I know the Captian personally. I'll ask for support if I need it but Unfortuneally I can't have anyone else posting in the guild. It would scare ppl off and may ruin things between me/her and her b/f.

Uh man. I'm not Wiccan. Nor do I want to be Wiccan. If ur speaking to me then I will not allow U to do so to me. I AM Christian and wanna keep it that way. HOWEVER, If ur question is generalized. Then U'd have to ask the captain,

I'm sorry I won't allow that. Although, you can pick up the Understanding Paganism thread, http://www.gaiaonline.com/guilds/viewtopic.php?t=6958889.

You can answer people's questions, but try not to go too far.

Perhaps you've all misunderstood me. I am asking: if we do not permit people to proselytise on other religions in here, what right do we have to proselytise there?

Wha? U totally lost me. I had to look the word proselytize up when U said it the first time. From what I understand it means "attempt to convert a person of one religion to another".

Now if this were my guild I wouldn't allow that. Weather U were trying to convert TO or FROM Christianity. It wouldn't matter. Ppl have free will and have the right to make their own choice to follow Jesus Christ.

Now I myself AM a Christian. There is no need to convert me into Christianity & I have no desire to convert into another religion.

EDIT: Now I got ur question & have an answer. I am NOT trying to convert anyone. Not by a long shot. I am simply whitnessing a Wiccan Guild and telling them about Christ. I am not demanding anything of them what so ever! They will make there choices on their own. But it is not in this guild.

"witnessing" IS attempting to convert.

i do have to agree that witnessing is attempting to convert (even checked both definitions and they have the same definition). And you also bring up a good point as well.

The way i see it, and this is my opinion, if someone wants to discuss his or her faith with us so we have a better understanding of the wiccan religion, I think s/he should be allowed to do so. Because that is how we as Christians would like to be welcomed as well, right? If we would go into a Wiccan guild and start up a conversation discussing our faith, offering if anyone has any questions, then they as well gain a better understanding of the Christian religion. It doesn't mean we're trying to convert people, just like how if s/he were to start up a thread about it in this guild, it just offers a chance for people to ask questions, gain knowledge, and search inside themselves.

that's just my two cents tossed out there. 3nodding heart

I'm Christian, just giving a hypothetical situation.
