Talking Down to Other Religions

It's common with anything. No matter what happens, someone always talks down to another religion.

Now then, I've known a few people who claim to be a witch, and when they meet somebody that is Christian or Catholic, even Atheist, they start to talk bad about their religion.

Why?

Because it's human nature to feel as if the choices you've made are the right one's. And if the people around you have chosen differently, then you want to talk bad about them. (Not everyone, but many people do this.)

It's not fun listening to other people talk bad about what you believe in. So why do many people do it, knowing they don't like it either?

It's just how people are. So what should you do when this happens?

-Don't argue with them.
-Don't try to fight about why they are wrong and you are right.
-Just listen to them, say ok, and excuse yourself.

It's much easier than arguing with them over a personal opinion. Nobody can help the way the feel about a certain topic. It's not their fault for not liking something, or not feeling the same way about something that you do.

Paganism v Wicca

So, I've been sitting here, jobless and broke, with nothing to do. I have no money, no gas in the car, no job, and I just don't know what to do. My bills are past due and it just seems like everything is falling apart all at once.
I created another blog for Non-Pagan readers. It's http://keepyourrelationshipsteady.blogspot.com
Because not everyone is Pagan, some people would just like to see some advice and help from a person's point of view.

Now then, I wrote for a bit on Tumblr about Wicca vs Paganism. At which point someone commented that I was confused between witchcraft which is Wicca and Paganism which is an Umbrella term.
No, I am not confused. I understand Paganism is an umbrella term, but Witchcraft is not just Wicca. Wicca which has only been around since the 1950's as a religion. Before that, Wicca was not named.

Since witchcraft has been around longer than Wicca, you cannot say somebody is wrong for the term they use. As I've said before, thanks to Hollywood, Wicca is a misleading name. Therefore, I say Pagan to avoid the young people who think "Sabrina the witch or The Craft". When Hollywood is no longer glamorizing Wicca and making it appear as "read this and you can change your boyfriend into a hottie", then I will feel more comfortable saying Wicca.
