That word...I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means

Anyone else have to deal with people who just plain don't know how to use the word "Wicca" in a sentence? Things like "How do I know if someone has used Wicca on me?" or "How do I do Wicca?"

For anyone who doesn't understand my complaint, replace "Wicca" with "Christianity" or "Islam" or any other belief system and see if the sentence makes a lick of sense. You don't "do" a religion. You can look like a member of a religion, but if all you're doing is focusing on motions and actions, you are most certainly not actually participating in said religion.

  1. I so agree. What I find even worse to read is taking a word and unbelievably twisting it's spelling: Magic becoming something like "majick" or Wicca being called "wiccanism" or (Gods forbid) "wiccanry".

    People so need basic education.
