What are current issues with Wiccans?

Answer 1

I don't think there are many issues within the current Wicca religion. Wicca in general is closely related to the cycle of the earth, open sexuality, and peace. I would say that among many Wiccan practitioners political issues relating to the enviorment (being green, taking care of the earth), subsistance issues (freedom to hunt, fish, and trap), homosexual rights, and world unity are big issues.

When it comes to the religion itself I think the only issue Wicca faces is its misconceptions. It's often closely related to Satan and Demonic rituals. The word "witchcraft" is closely associated with Wicca, inwhich many stereotypes arise. Wicca focuses on the sole idea of "Harm none and do as ye will" which many Wiccans believe orders them to stay out of religious arguements. They can educate when people are open to hearing their opinion, but they do not push their religion or their beliefs on others. Because of the lack of open information available on Wicca, there is a lot of negativity towards the religion. I would say that is a problem most Wiccans, universally, face.
