Plain and simple.Somebody has to set up the circle, somebody has to buy the candles and the incense, somebody has to be comfy performing the ritual in front of spectators. Like I said..ritual functionaries.
Quote:Leadership and guidance requires proof, not for everyone to claim and get away with without a clear proof from God.Wiccan leadership only requires competence and a willingness to serve the group.
Quote:And if a person dies and there is no book from God testifying to his truth, there is no way to attest to his leadership.Wiccan clergy attest to their leadership in life..not death..by action..not through a text from gawd.
They don't have to do any of that. They choose to because they prefer their egos over God unfortunately and become enemies of his chosen ones and his holy books, and who ever turns away from the proof of God after it has been brought out and shown... who ever disbelieves in God, and his Angels, and his books and Prophets, they are in a far error.
It as the Torah explains how the generations leading to Noah became corrupted by people naming themselves with the name of God which is the position of leadership and representation of God's path.
Dark are the paths leading astray from God and evil are the intentions of those who turn away from God and his proofs.
Those who don't have the means to acknowledge God's proofs - or reject them - may they be forgiven by God! But those who become enemies of the Messengers and the chosen families that God has coupled with revelations and books from him, they are indeed the darkest and worse of all people.
