Worst Things You Can Ever Say As A Pagan

[Henry Dorsett Case]

I think I'm going to have to go with this exchange as one of the worst things you can say as a debater:
Person 1: "Your definitions for these theological words are wrong."
Persons 2 & 3: "Bring forth the authority that says that our definitions are wrong, especially considering that this use isn't exactly standard across the community in question."
Person 4: "She's not wrong just because her definitions are different. And don't speak for the whole community."

...

No, seriously. Apparently pointing out that "X is not the only definition accepted across Y community" is now tantamount to "speaking for the whole Y community"? I didn't get that memo either.

Someone had to say this eventualy:
'heathen' is the new term for any non-abrahamic religion. Get updated on termanology people.'

HEATHEN IS THE NEW BLACK YA'LL.

The OTO has become nothing more than a neo-Pagan elitist cult, lately, and has strayed from the core teachings of Crowley.

Ok some of them suffer from headupholeitis for sure but really it can't be all of them.

"I follow a religion that's largely plagiarized from another work. I also follow a system of magical work that's heavily influenced by other religions, even decontextualized actions from those religions. Both of these religions are at most just over a century old. I also claim to be a member of a religion that died out oh, two millennia ago give or take, even though I'm really just a member of a modern re-imagining of the religion. But dammit, Wicca is just stupid because it's young and influenced heavily by other religions and systems."

Is now when I call patch names and sling insults at her, then claim I'm just trying to keep this thread on track?  

[deito]

No, now is when we point and laugh... Then you sling and claim thing...

Wait....what? *holy crap confused*

A particular "Thelemite, Satanist, and Druid".
Satanism - TSB was plagiarized in part from Might is Right. Published in 1969.
Thelema - Includes influences from the work of Francois Rabelais, Francis Dashwood, and Shri Gurudev Mahendranath, all of differing religious backgrounds. Founded in the first decade of the twentieth century.
Druid - I think this one's self-explanatory. IN ARIZONA.

And yet Wicca is too young, takes from too many sources, is "too illogical", and has "too many claims of antiquity" to be a real religion for him.
