I heard and read a bit about wiccans but dont know much about them. I read a book it was fictional but seemed based a bit about fact on wicca. And it said that they believe in god is that true?

My personal opinion is that it depends on what Wiccan you talk to. Some believe there is a seperate deity from Earth, that watches over it, similar to the Christian god. Talk to another Wiccan and you might give a different answer. The ones that I know, the majority of them, at least, believe that deities are only really a manifestation of Earth, a different way of representing it and individual parts of it.

Basically when it comes down to it, Wicca isn't a religion that sets up exactly what, who, or how you're supposed to worship. In my opinion, it's a religion created to serve personal spiritual needs or desires, a way of life and a feeling that a person might not have found in other religions.

The basis of Wicca is "An' it harm none, do as ye will." Just like many religions and philsophies. It's about respecting people, nature, and yourself. Chop it up into pieces and you'll find it's all very similar. Religions work and build on personal opinions, not the other way around.

Thank You all for ur help

I found a great website FAQ here. It's got all the questions about the Wiccan religion answered. If you go back to the main page, it has more stuff as well.

The Wiccans believe in God, but not in the same way Christianity, Judism, etc. do. Just as all the branches of those religion have a different perception of this God, so do they.

According to this website, they refer to God as "the One" or "the All" or some sort. And they acknowledge the female and male aspects of that God. The femaleness is acknowledged through, as "The Goddess" and the maleness as "The God." They touch on Pagan deities, as well as ancient Greek and Roman to represent either one.

Read the website FAQ, it's quick and informative.

While looking for that, I found a website that is campaigning to legalize the practice of ancient Greek religions in Greece. Right now there is a prison sentence of up to 5 years if you're caught practicing. And twice in the last three years they've applied for a House of Prayer permit, and have not receieved official responses.

I found the campaign site, or..some variation of it here. And there's a documentary on it called "I Still Worship Zeus." I think they counted their practitioners at 2,000 or so.

Just an interesting thing to see the abduction of religious freedom because it might be seen as "morally offensive" to others.

Well, this is just my understanding. I'm not a Wiccan, so don't take this as undeniable proof, but it was my understanding that Wiccans each had a personal god that they worshipped. Sometimes just "a god" or "a goddess" and sometimes a specific God such as Athena, Brighid, or Osiris.

Whether you believe in God (or any other gods) is up to you and you alone.

But for the most part, Wiccans don't really believe in or worship any gods. I've heard mention of a goddess, but then, I'm no Wiccan.

Some do.

Some believe in many Gods(es).

It really depends.

Wicca is a "streatchable" religion.

sry Typo the god that Christians believe in

Well the God that chritians believe in

It depends on which god you are speaking of.
