    Sadly quite true about people not wanting their beliefs questioned. It's what's called a comfort zone. Anything outside that zone makes them uncomfortable to the point that they must protect the comfort zone at all costs :(

    For a lot of people, religion is a very personal thing. I'm not even sure why that is. I have my own religious beliefs but I don't get bent out of shape towards those who believe otherwise. I just accept the fact that there are people who will believe differently from what I do and that's that. I don't try to argue with them or convince them that my way is right and their way is wrong. I don't tell them that they're going to hell even if I believe that they are. As it is, I don't know much about Wicca or any other faith except my own so it's really hard for me to make any definitive statements one way or another. As for the Bible, it's true that I accept it on a matter of faith. I believe it to be true but I won't get angry or upset with you if you question it.

    My truth is that the bible, and other religious works, have been altered through the ages. Because they were written and translated by mortals (I hesitate to say men for fear of offending). If you are truly open minded, I recommend watching dogma. It adds some interesting perspective and makes you think about religion.
    Oh, and people are afraid of things they do not know or understand.
