Interesting Commentary on Wicca

Well, with halloween only days away, the thoughts of the world are turning again to all the things that it entails. Apparantly, the thoughts of the Christian world are also thinking through issues such as Wicca. I received this commentary in my email this morning. I found Colson's comments fascinating.

I was especially intrigued by the reasons the author of the book discusses for why women are leaving the Christian church for Wicca. The environmental issue, and the marginalization of themselves into minor roles. I've heard these issues before. I've thought personally about the issue of the roles of women as I've been struggling to decide what schooling option to pursue next. I'd love to study theology or church history, but the reality is that the jobs in those fields are limited to start with, and my being a woman makes them even more difficult to obtain. So, I will study counselling, I think. It will pay bills and perhaps allow me to pursue my interests in theology or reformation history sometime down the road.
