-Random importaint stuff:
-  Children are raised wiccan but it's made essencial that it's optional
-
-

-    Publisized wicca in book "Witchcraft Today", 1954
-    Created the Garderian tradidion of wikka from 
-    Created "Books of Shadows" - not a sacred text, but contains a lot of stuff gerald liked.
-

-Beleifs:
-  Wicca beleives in two gods, Tripple Goddess and Horned god 
-  
-  Tripple Goddess and Horned god stand for many things, which can be represented by lower level dieties
-    > Because of this they are often refered to as the "Great * god[ness]", great refering to containing other dieties 
-    > Many interpretations on these gods. Some refer to them as a devine figure, others more an imporsonal force
-    > Commonality between traditions is that Wiccan dieties are viewed as forms of ancient, pre-christian divinities
- 
-  Tripple Goddess:
-    Animals, natural world, afterlife, role model for men
-    
-  Hornded God:
-    Life, fertility, described as ideal role model for women
-  
-  Broader Wiccan beleifs can range from 
-    monisim (all from one source), 
-    panthesm (reality is the embodyment of god)
-    Godness Monothesism (a movement worshiping godnesses due to male dominated religon) 
-
-  Monotheism:
-    > Gardner says above the two gods are "Supreme Deity/Prime Mover", entity too complex for humans to understand
-      That god created two "Under Gods", but are otherwise not involved in our world 
-    > God is pantheistic, or part of the universe
-  Polytheisim: 
-    > all gods are one god, all godesses are one godess
-    > Other stuff I shouldn't get into because this is taking too long
-
-  Pentagram:  earth, air, fire, water, and aether/spirit
-    
-  After life doesn't play centreal peice in religon
-  Reincarnation is common beleif
-  
-  Many beleive in magic, not all
-    Spells often cast in a circle, and create physical changes such as healing, fertality, bandishing negativity
-    Early wiccans refered as their magic to white magic, to help seperate themselves from satanisim ("dark" magic)
-
-  People speculate wichcraft was a positive antitype, critising againsed christain fear of women with power/whiches
-    > They deny commonly associated negative stereotypes 
-  Five elements:
-    > Spirit, air, water, earth, fire
-    > geolocational
-
-  Wheel of the year, usually 8 sabbats
-    > All traditions have these 4:
-      * candlemass
-      * May Eve
-      * Lammas
-      * Halloween
-    > Rites of passage:
-    > "all practitioners are considered to be priests and priestesses"
-
-Practices:
-  > Many partake in them without beleif, as the rituals themselves induce a religous experience more then "dry" practices
-
-Values:
-  no centerallized dogmatic moral or ethical code, however, they beleive this:
-    > Wiccan Rede: "an it harm done, do what ye will"; you can do whatever with responsability.
-  Common beleifs:
-    > Law of Threefold return: What ever actions one takes, they get it back 3x stronger, or equal on mind body spirit. 
-    > 8 virtues: mirth, reverence, honour, humility, strength, beauty, power, and compassion. Comes from Doreen Valientine
-    > Traditionally they were heteroexclusive (is that a word?), but sence then they've moved on and people are openly gay/bi
-    > Jonne Pearson claimed wicans don't claim their gods have all answers and live rationally, gods help obtain completeness
-

-Tradition branches:
-  Wicca is devided into branches of diffrent beleifs and orginizational structures, these branches are called traditions
-  Some main ones:
-    > Gardnerian, Alexandrian and Algard make up British Traditional Wicca, based on Gerald's teachings
-    > Traces back through super duper long proxy to Zsuzsanna Budapest, prefer "Witches" more then "wiccan"
-  Covens of 13 (about). Require initiation after a year-day.
-    Covens have no hiarchy structure
-  Eclentric Wiccca's don't follow common traditional beleifs, make their own stuff
-
-Misconceptions/controversy:
-  Is it a religon?
-    Evangelical Christains tried to make sure it wasn't legally classified as a religon 
-    "Wicca has both influenced/been influenced by other Pagan religions, making clear-cut distinctions difficult for religious studies scholars"
-    "Dettmer v. Landon" classifieed it as a religon, which was started for ritual objects in prisons
-    In 2007 pentagram was allowed for headstones of deceiced in millitary
