Yoga saved my life. I was injured and I could barely walk or even live. I started doing chair yoga and light swimming, mostly floating. I was also doing meditating and sitting in the sun. After 8 weeks, I was starting to heal so well, my doctor thought I was faking my injuries. I've always been more spiritual and also, into my own cultural practices. My thing is I do not bother anyone, I do my thing. I have been openly attacked by so many "Christians", including family, that I just keep doing my thing and ignore them.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I'm a hindu and yoga was a regular thing for us ever since we were children and christians hating on it and calling it demonic upset me a lot but people like you give me hope

The video of the lady throwing stuff away looked so fake. And as someone who was forced to throw away non Christian books in my teen years, I can tell you most times they don't want you to donate things as then you'll "spread the evil" and it makes you responsible if someone were to take the items.

I'm moving back to an old apartment full of Catholic figures, crosses, paintings, and stuff... and I'm taking it all out and respectfully donating it to a church. You don't need to destroy elements sacred to others just because you're not a believer. So sad.
I used to try to be the calm one when confronted with militant Christians but now every time i hear them accuse pagans or witches of curses and things, i laugh and just say yep I DID THAT, now move out of my way i got other stuff to do.

You really should say some Christians, not Christians in general. As a born again Christian I think your dreamcatchers are cool looking, as well as your jewelry, but maybe that’s because I’m part Lakota. The First Nation peoples were here first thousands of years before the Europeans arrived. Do I believe traditionally as you do, no. But you’re still my brother or sister.

@@wildgaiaspirit9641 I think it's more complex than that- certain Protestant denominations such as Roman Catholic, Episcopalians, etc were more forceful on making Natives "Christian" than other denominations. That was the whole reason the Christian Pilgrims left the domineering Catholic Church of England because they were tired of being bullied. Actually the pilgrims were great friends with the local Native Americans. But the United States has a long history of being bullies.

Demonizing the evil eye & yoga are so irritating to me. The evil eye is to REPEL evil in so so many cultures across the globe, and the yogic lineage is a sacred spiritual practice from India. Demonizing people’s religions as if your religion is the only holy or sacred one is hubris and colonial beyond belief.
As someone formerly Catholic I was baffled by incense being listed in the first one because more traditional churches do burn incense during mass I attended one at one point.
I’m a Native American witch and the sage clips are ouchie. And she made fun of yoga and yet Christian’s stole the japa mala concept and turned it into rosary beads. I can’t help wondering why Christianity has to be so fear based.. when I was in church it was constant if you don’t do this you’ll go to hell and if someone else believes differently they’re going to hell. It scared the crap out of me as a kid and I’m still trying to get past it. Also it’s a really bloody religion. Killing in his name has happened numerous times. I don’t understand their perspective. They are of course entitled to their opinion but what do they actually know about witchcraft? They still don’t even know what a pentacle represents. We all probably know more about their faith than they do about our practice. I dunno this irked me lol 😂
Not all Christians are true followers of Christ. True follower of christ doesn't obstain out of fear but out of love. Search John Ramirez testimony. Really powerful
Please please please do one for New Age! I sincerely wish I could bring popcorn, wine, and snacks to just laugh at these with you. TikTok has some deep pockets of strange.
Oh my gosh, I can't tell you how much I loved this! I come from an overbearing Christian background. I have so many comments on this clips that I could make right now, but they would benefit noone, so I'll just keep my mouth shut about that! Seriously though, I very much enjoyed this video. and I had a super rough day, so I needed the laugh! Thanks!
The first video is an American Protestant's POV Christian. They don't use incense or icons. The walls of their churches are usually white and the rarely have stained class windows. They mostly use the Bible and on occasion holy water and a cross in their practice, rarely anything else.
Probably an anti Catholic protestant as well. Many protestants still carry on some Catholic traditions and generally feel positively towards Catholics. Some protestants are wild though and see witchcraft and demons everywhere.
The videos on YT have made me chuckle so I know this will be good. Tiktoks former newage turned Christians have stated they were able to conjure high ranking demons with tiny pieces of rose quartz, something even the most dedicated mystics haven't been able to accomplish, yet a lil piece of rose quartz and a mini jar of moon water had them under demonic attack that Jesus brought them out of 🙄
Hardcore christians: *witchcaft bad, alchemy bad, destroy all crystals and sages* Christian mass: *literally alchemy, transmutation and spellcraft* Reason? Left the chat... 😂
I feel bad for anyone who gets yelled at for being a witch as a Christian I don’t agree with it but I always will love my neighbor and focus on what we have in common not our differences
I find it so funny that how they call us demonic….yet some (not all)churches won’t move the pastor after he’s spread false information and has done bad things to adults and kids….., but I do know we’re there coming from…..I wish they can respect fully see it’s not what they think
I have no idea how i ended up here but fun video.I don't consider myself a witch,but do respect the craft and other religions.Somehow i was expecting that green smoothie to be evil as wel😅.I grow up in catholic church and yeah i have like a list of things that I can't talk about to some of my family members Like yoga- apparently if you practice yoga you open yourself to the devil.🤔what it meant for me was i started to question and discovering things and that is "the problem"- thinking on your own and asking and questioning things.Have zombie like mentality and just do what your told,at least in my family 🤦🏻♀️😅😒
I agree but actually crystals because of their geometric crystalline structure do have certain harmonic resonances that emit a benefecial influence including himmalyan salt but not to worship them !
Watching too many of these Tik Toks could make you lose brain cells 😂😂 you’re a brave girl. It’s laughable but also sad because I legit know a lot of people in real life who would totally nod their heads in agreement with these..:
I mean believing in these things might not even be that awful, a lot of pagans believe in some fantastical things too to an outsider - but it’s the fearmongering and the pushing it onto others and the violence that result from it that is just so problematic 😭
I understand where you are coming from but I'm the way I am because I was made to go to church and pushed to believe in something and I guess that's why I feel like I do about it and I'm not saying that if I meet someone who is a Christian I would be mean to them or try to make them believe what I do and I wouldn't destroy a Bible or rosary beads or a crucifix or a cross I just have some resentment two people that tried to push their religion on me
I was raised Evangelical. Now I'm a polytheist witch. Sadly, these sentiments are very common within the Evangelical community. For some background, Evangelicalism is a philosophy within Christianity that's popular among conservative Christians in the States. It focuses on being born again, of dedicating your life to Jesus, and of spreading the Gospel to non-believers. It also focuses on a belief that humans are inherently wicked, sinful, and impure; that we all deserve to go to Hell; but that Jesus loved us enough to save us, and thus, if we believe in him as the redeemer, we will be able to go to Heaven. In Evangelicalism there is only two options for an after life: either you believe in Jesus and go to Heaven, or you don't and you go to Hell. Yet, it's much more complicated than that, and I feel like a lot of behavior is heavily surveilled within members of the community, by members of the community. You can't have sex before marriage, you can't masturbate, you can't play video games, you can't be gay, you can't be trans, you can't read certain books, or watch certain cartoons, and of course, anything that is spiritual or religious that isn't Evangelical Christianity...well, that's demonic and clearly from Satan and meant to lure nonbelievers and believers alike to hell. The fear of hell is really a central tenet that drives members of Evangelical Christianity to constantly "repent" of their "sins" and try to reach out to "save" nonbelievers from the same fate. For many reasons, Evangelicalism really wasn't for me. This video reminds me a lot of the sentiments I encountered growing up. I think you did a very respectful and insightful approach. I enjoyed your comparisons of witchcraft to the Bible, although, for Evangelicals, they would refuse to see your reasoning and arguments and just say, "Well that's different." And that of course...witchcraft is evil. Sorry for the rant, but nice video again!
As an EX-Christian turned pagan, I CONSIDERED throwing away my Bibles (I had 6 around my house) because I didn’t want to promote anyone else picking one of them up because I felt it was so toxic to me, but there’s a difference between coming into that religion and leaving it. LEAVING it I had the sense to think “someone is just going to spend money on a new copy and it’s going to create waste if I throw it out. If someone’s gonna get a Bible, they’re gonna get one anyway, and it’s not my place to tell other people what they can and can’t read or believe.” The whole religion is about telling people what to read and believe though. This is the group of people that still burns books in 2020 despite that NEVER BEING GOOD FOR HISTORY 🙄 Throwing them in the trash was a mercy. But I can get in their head a bit as to why they thought that was a decent idea if they’re trying to prevent people from finding witchcraft (even though REALISTICALLY all they’re doing is getting rid one 1 perfectly usable copy 🙄🙄🙄)
Oh these videos really make me cringe 🥴 as someone who grew up Catholic turned LDS and back paganism. I swear there is more paganism in religion than in paganism itself 🤣🤣 Honestly now...urgh people are crazy!
That's so funny because the whole time watching this I've been admiring your BEAUTIFUL hair lol. Also yes! I cannot stand how our Dieties are labeled "Mythology". Loved this video. Thank you 💜
I'm pretty sure in the Bible it says you have to burn it all..... Shocking and very disrespectful indeed... What a waste... It makes me both angry and sad...
They even have a practice that if one of their own has sinned openly, if said person doesn't openly repent infront of the whole church, then the whole church outcasts the person and ignores them. How ignorant and spiteful. They really are an abhorrent belief.
Ok this one is a sensitive subject for me so I will take a step back. I am complicated. I believe in God and am a Christian but practice divination too, a Christian witch if you will. I am very much in the closet because I know if I come out as such I will be burned at the stake lol. But seriously I get it from their point of view and the witch view as well. I just know we should all learn to be a little more tolerant of each other and deal from a place of love rather than ignorance and hate. 😊❤
Not trying to intrude or challenge you in any way, just curious. How do you feel about the old testament explicitly condemning divination? Is that disqualified by the Church somehow? Again, I'm genuinely curious.
I love you so much for doing this 😂 It's so disturbing and painful. I do feel like being able to sit through a bunch of satanic panic 2.0 media is definately character building for me. 😄. It's funny too, because the very first thing that you put up on the screen to start, reminded me of Matt Walsh talking about everybody he hates lacking creativity, and how so many people can't even be offensive toward christianity in a creative way. 😂 I wonder if would consider Christian Black Metal to be an interesting music genre? I guess I should end this the right way. God help us all! Amen! Lol
Christian witches and Christian wizards (including me) laughing at those tiktoks pls hit like yeshua pls give them some knowledge of your glory AMEN. luv u and ur vedios ella pls make more of these
You should say in the ending of your videos “don’t forget, if you guys hit that like button, you’ll set your spirit free.” Instead of “you’ve given your life to Jesus” lol 🤣🤣🤣
About the last one of the hair I would like to say to that person... Don't you know about a thing called stress? Yeah, it causes hair loss These people love to play victim seriously 😂
6:15 in Europa verstößt so eine Handlung gegen fast alle Grundgesetze auf Grund der Religionsfreiheit. Religions- und Meinungsfreiheit heißt für diese Menschen aber: „Es steht dir frei unsere Meinung und Religion anzunehmen, aber nicht eine andere zu haben.“ 🤦🏻♂️
Christianity is an interesting mix of contradictions. The Council of Nicaea rejected the book of Enoch and so it is not included in the bible. Most Christians have either never heard of the book of Enoch or don't consider it religious text. The catholic church agreed to make their holy days and festivals to closely fit with pagan festivals and holy days to make it easier to convert the "heathens" to Christianity. And most Christians believe that Christianity is the most pure religion out there. What most Christians don't realize, either by ignorance or by design, that Christianity is as much, if not more so, bathed in blood as any other religion. I was a christian most of my life, only recently returning the the worship of my ancestral gods.
The Biblical cannon was not put together at the council of Nicea, that's a myth, it was actually regarding Arius and his heresy. The book of Enoch is litteraly in the Ethiopian Bible anyways.
Ich weiß das gehört jetzt nicht zum Thema, aber gibt es dein Buch auch auf Deutsch? In deiner Kanalinfo steht "German Folk Witch". Daher gehe ich davon aus, dass du auch Deutsch sprichst. Unter den englischsprachigen Büchern zu diesen Themen gibt es so viele schön gestaltete. Unter den deutschsprachigen ist sowas irgendwie sehr rar. Wäre daher toll, wenn du deins auch auf Deutsch anbieten könntest. Immerhin habe ich auch deine spanische (oder italienische 🤔) Version davon auf Amazon gesehen.
I do not know why anyone including yourself would spend any time addressing such people! They are taking energy and time from yourself and anyone to even acknowledge them and honestly by bringing attention to them it is helping them out. I did not grow up Christen (or any of the other major faiths) and honestly never had Christen people want to interact with me, never had them want to convert me or ask me to go to their church at all. So being a pagan, witch I do really do not care what Christens are saying and do not seek out them. If one is not have to deal with them then do not. There are so many groups of people that will not agree with you for many reasons, do not give them your time to correct them! I recall on one of your previous vids you spoke of being ashamed to be of German background due to WW2. I did not grow up where you did so I can not speak of your experience, sad to hear that you felt this way! I am a woman who is a black US woman of mixed background. My grandfather was from Norway but moved to Germany in 1938 to work with the government, I think you get what I am saying. After WW2 to avoid being sent to jail he got changed his name and moved to the US and married a black US woman and had kids to try to hide his past. That said when he moved back to Germany and I also lived there myself I met him many times. Even with this I am not embarrassed by who I am, my direct family is! Germany has a long history of more than just WW2 era! So you should not feel bad about who you are. Many people's in the past did awful things so do not feel bad of being German.
I’m on a journey to search for truth and my question is if you believe in demons? I hear Christians talking about terrifying experiences when practicing any witchcraft or getting deep into new age spirituality. Have you ever had any scary encounters and for you to practice witchcraft you’re channeling something or practicing rituals for a reason. I am not judging, just curious what higher power you believe in and what is causing your witchcraft to work?
Its like that mentality where someone does something wrong with a tool thats available to everyone and so now anyone that uses that tool is put in the same category and people are told you cant use these tools because one person used it for nefarious purposes and we feel you are not to be trustedto do the right thing.
Christians and Catholics have differences. I myself am Charismatic and pentecostal. Look up, Troy Black, John Ramirez, The Supernatural Life with Daniel Adam's, Vlad Savchuk, David Diga Hernandez and Isaiah Saldivar and Kevin Zadai and Julie Lopez.
This is just me talking, but I was raised in a Christan environment and am now Wiccan and I just noticed that in my experience, Christians can be very wasteful. Like in the second video there was no reason to throw all the stuff in a trash can and smash it. Donate it. It made my heart sad. 😔
I'm born and raised Catholic, went to church and Sunday school and everything, and never once heard the Priests, Nuns or the Teachers saying to not do anything because it was "demonic" or to disrespect anyone that wasn't Christian, at least not at my church that, btw, is in a small neighborhood in the countryside of Brazil. Another crazy thing, Catholics make over 60% of the Brazilian population and the Protestants make 27%, and even they both being Christians, the hate that the Protestants have for the Catholics are unexplainable, they call us "Not Christian Enough" because we have faith in Saints, they even went as far as kicking a image of Nossa Senhora Aparecida; who is the patroness of Brazil and Brazilian people, expectant mothers and newborns, also sea and rivers, gold, honey and even beauty; in national television, thankfully Catholics believe in God's punishment and that same pastor that kicked the image developed a chronic pain in that same leg and almost had to amputate that leg, but it seems that he didn't learned anything and is back in condemning "idolatry" and is a far-right supporter, and as far as I know he lives in the United States, so Americans beware of a Pastor Sérgio Von Hélder. Also beware with me, because if I see anyone disrespecting mine or someone else religion, I might be Catholic, but I don't take bullshit.
Ich bin noch sehr neu was Tarot, Hexen und Co. angeht. Ich habe mir vor ein paar Wochen aus heiterem Himmel ein Tarot bestellt, ich weiß bis jetzt nicht mehr wie ich dazu gekommen bin. 😅Also habe ich mich wieder mehr mit Spiritualität beschäftigt, nachdem ich das vor einigen Jahren schon sehr intensiv getan hatte. 🌝✨Habe mir viele Videos angeschaut und prompt werden mir die ganzen Anti-Esoterik und Anti-Hexenvideos angezeigt. Das hat mich anfangs sehr verwirrt, weil ich mit dem Universum sein möchte und mich mit der Natur verbinden möchte und eben nichts „böses, dunkles, dämonisches“ praktizieren möchte. Habe mich dazu entschieden meiner Intuition zu folgen und das zu tun was mir gut tut und niemandem schadet, egal wie andere darüber denken wollen 🙌🏻🫶
These Christian videos looks like propaganda to me 😵💫 like the “witch” doing all that and throw her tools and sage, real witch wouldn’t do that ever at least in my opition. Plus the others are jsit hilarious. I was put into the Catholic realms since I was born (not my choice as a kid) and some ppl are programmed soo deep into believing that everything that is written in the Bible is true. Which is not as the translation from the Arameic to other languages they just made it all up as they wanted to. Just to program and control people. I am about to actually cancel my catholic religion as I was never into it and that is just a trigger let me tell ya 😅
I just wish most christians were more respectful of other people’s beliefs. Especially when some of their traditions come from pagans.
Exactly!
My thoughts all the time!
So do I.
I've reported a short that was on RUclips recently.
Their traditions come from pagans because they conquered and stole those traditions. The history is brutal and violent.
How can they be when their faith is built on condemning and being mean

They are of course entitled to their opinion but what do they actually know about witchcraft? They still don’t even know what a pentacle represents. We all probably know more about their faith than they do about our practice. I dunno this irked me lol 😂
Not all Christians are true followers of Christ. True follower of christ doesn't obstain out of fear but out of love. Search John Ramirez testimony. Really powerful
Thank you for this. Absolutely agree with your points and perspective
Also frankincense and myrrh is literally offered to baby Jesus haha
Do (extreme) Christians actually read the bible?
Love to the witch wiccan community and the pagan community I'm a pagan from england
Please please please do one for New Age! I sincerely wish I could bring popcorn, wine, and snacks to just laugh at these with you. TikTok has some deep pockets of strange.
Oh my gosh, I can't tell you how much I loved this! I come from an overbearing Christian background. I have so many comments on this clips that I could make right now, but they would benefit noone, so I'll just keep my mouth shut about that! Seriously though, I very much enjoyed this video. and I had a super rough day, so I needed the laugh! Thanks!
1:43 Less than 2 minutes in and I'm already laughing my head off! Thank you so much for this video!
The same people complaining about the war on Christianity.
Laughed at Ella’s trying to counter ignorance and bigotry with rational, respectful common sense.
Sometimes I wish I could be as petty and sarcastic online as I am privately but that sadly doesn’t translate well 😩😩
OMG 😳 i can't believe people are really doing this!! THIS IS SO DISRESPECTFUL! 😭
Agreed! That is so vile! Donate the books to someone who needs them!
The first video is an American Protestant's POV Christian. They don't use incense or icons. The walls of their churches are usually white and the rarely have stained class windows. They mostly use the Bible and on occasion holy water and a cross in their practice, rarely anything else.
Probably an anti Catholic protestant as well. Many protestants still carry on some Catholic traditions and generally feel positively towards Catholics. Some protestants are wild though and see witchcraft and demons everywhere.
Holy water is cleansing magick. A cross in an amulet. So still hypocritical of them 🤷🏻♀️
The videos on YT have made me chuckle so I know this will be good. Tiktoks former newage turned Christians have stated they were able to conjure high ranking demons with tiny pieces of rose quartz, something even the most dedicated mystics haven't been able to accomplish, yet a lil piece of rose quartz and a mini jar of moon water had them under demonic attack that Jesus brought them out of 🙄
The mind is a powerful thing 😂
Crystals are part of their God's .creation Nature is not demonic .
Hardcore christians: *witchcaft bad, alchemy bad, destroy all crystals and sages*
Christian mass: *literally alchemy, transmutation and spellcraft*
Reason? Left the chat... 😂
Catholic Mass. Most of this Fundementalist hate is from the US.
Money
@TabithaReminiec3399 yes :-(
People are so ignorant. Read some history and realize that the Bible wasn’t written by “God.” 😮
Christian’s to witches: you’re going to hell!!! Unacceptable!!
Witches to Christian’s: fair enough 🤷♀️
@1dk.1dc Amen sister! I dearly wish these Christians were a lot kinder towards Modern day Pagans and overall society
I feel bad for anyone who gets yelled at for being a witch as a Christian I don’t agree with it but I always will love my neighbor and focus on what we have in common not our differences
That video was still respectful and I really enjoyed is as a wiccan. Would love to see more like that x
What Christians don't know is the bible is a grimoire and the bible also mentions sacrifice and offerings
The one's on youtube are already crazy enough so I'm interested to see how the one's on tiktok are x'D
They are wild lol
I find it so funny that how they call us demonic….yet some (not all)churches won’t move the pastor after he’s spread false information and has done bad things to adults and kids….., but I do know we’re there coming from…..I wish they can respect fully see it’s not what they think
So excited for this series!!❤
I love reaction videos. Especially when it's about this subject. I hope enough people lie this so that it becomes a series.
I have no idea how i ended up here but fun video.I don't consider myself a witch,but do respect the craft and other religions.Somehow i was expecting that green smoothie to be evil as wel😅.I grow up in catholic church and yeah i have like a list of things that I can't talk about to some of my family members
Like yoga- apparently if you practice yoga you open yourself to the devil.🤔what it meant for me was i started to question and discovering things and that is "the problem"- thinking on your own and asking and questioning things.Have zombie like mentality and just do what your told,at least in my family 🤦🏻♀️😅😒
The Three Kings were literal Magi who followed the location of an astrological & astronomical phenomenon to find Jesus at the point of his birth.
I agree but actually crystals because of their geometric crystalline structure do have certain harmonic resonances that emit a benefecial influence including himmalyan salt but not to worship them !
Watching too many of these Tik Toks could make you lose brain cells 😂😂 you’re a brave girl.
It’s laughable but also sad because I legit know a lot of people in real life who would totally nod their heads in agreement with these..:
If it comes down to the hair bit . You are the best advert for the craft ever🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great video as per 👍
My partner is catholic and I'm a pagan. When I told him he is fine with it because he told me being a catholic is a double edge sword.
This was just amazing!
Thank you for posting this.
And yes I would like that. I love your book I finally got mine it amazing! Thank you 💜 Blessed Be 💜😊
It's laughable what some people believe when it comes to religion !!!
I would love it if you did more videos on this subject!!!
I mean believing in these things might not even be that awful, a lot of pagans believe in some fantastical things too to an outsider - but it’s the fearmongering and the pushing it onto others and the violence that result from it that is just so problematic 😭
I understand where you are coming from but I'm the way I am because I was made to go to church and pushed to believe in something and I guess that's why I feel like I do about it and I'm not saying that if I meet someone who is a Christian I would be mean to them or try to make them believe what I do and I wouldn't destroy a Bible or rosary beads or a crucifix or a cross I just have some resentment two people that tried to push their religion on me
I was raised Evangelical. Now I'm a polytheist witch.
Sadly, these sentiments are very common within the Evangelical community.
For some background, Evangelicalism is a philosophy within Christianity that's popular among conservative Christians in the States. It focuses on being born again, of dedicating your life to Jesus, and of spreading the Gospel to non-believers. It also focuses on a belief that humans are inherently wicked, sinful, and impure; that we all deserve to go to Hell; but that Jesus loved us enough to save us, and thus, if we believe in him as the redeemer, we will be able to go to Heaven.
In Evangelicalism there is only two options for an after life: either you believe in Jesus and go to Heaven, or you don't and you go to Hell.
Yet, it's much more complicated than that, and I feel like a lot of behavior is heavily surveilled within members of the community, by members of the community. You can't have sex before marriage, you can't masturbate, you can't play video games, you can't be gay, you can't be trans, you can't read certain books, or watch certain cartoons, and of course, anything that is spiritual or religious that isn't Evangelical Christianity...well, that's demonic and clearly from Satan and meant to lure nonbelievers and believers alike to hell.
The fear of hell is really a central tenet that drives members of Evangelical Christianity to constantly "repent" of their "sins" and try to reach out to "save" nonbelievers from the same fate.
For many reasons, Evangelicalism really wasn't for me. This video reminds me a lot of the sentiments I encountered growing up. I think you did a very respectful and insightful approach. I enjoyed your comparisons of witchcraft to the Bible, although, for Evangelicals, they would refuse to see your reasoning and arguments and just say, "Well that's different." And that of course...witchcraft is evil.
Sorry for the rant, but nice video again!
As an EX-Christian turned pagan, I CONSIDERED throwing away my Bibles (I had 6 around my house) because I didn’t want to promote anyone else picking one of them up because I felt it was so toxic to me, but there’s a difference between coming into that religion and leaving it. LEAVING it I had the sense to think “someone is just going to spend money on a new copy and it’s going to create waste if I throw it out. If someone’s gonna get a Bible, they’re gonna get one anyway, and it’s not my place to tell other people what they can and can’t read or believe.” The whole religion is about telling people what to read and believe though. This is the group of people that still burns books in 2020 despite that NEVER BEING GOOD FOR HISTORY 🙄 Throwing them in the trash was a mercy. But I can get in their head a bit as to why they thought that was a decent idea if they’re trying to prevent people from finding witchcraft (even though REALISTICALLY all they’re doing is getting rid one 1 perfectly usable copy 🙄🙄🙄)
That my friend was a forced conversion right there. It's sickening.
Oh these videos really make me cringe 🥴 as someone who grew up Catholic turned LDS and back paganism. I swear there is more paganism in religion than in paganism itself 🤣🤣 Honestly now...urgh people are crazy!
That guy’s Jesus look a lot like Kenny Loggins. 😂
That's so funny because the whole time watching this I've been admiring your BEAUTIFUL hair lol. Also yes! I cannot stand how our Dieties are labeled "Mythology". Loved this video. Thank you 💜
Ella just curious what's your beliefs or thoughts over where or where do we go exactly us witches. I was raised christain but I am a witch.
I wonder if they're as mad about the idea of divination, as they are about the fact that there's a High Priestess card.
I'm pretty sure in the Bible it says you have to burn it all..... Shocking and very disrespectful indeed... What a waste... It makes me both angry and sad...
They even have a practice that if one of their own has sinned openly, if said person doesn't openly repent infront of the whole church, then the whole church outcasts the person and ignores them.
How ignorant and spiteful.
They really are an abhorrent belief.
@@witchNwandYeah that comes from a new testament bible verse. Was raised a Christian and active for 30 years in total, so glad to be a witch.
Ok this one is a sensitive subject for me so I will take a step back. I am complicated. I believe in God and am a Christian but practice divination too, a Christian witch if you will. I am very much in the closet because I know if I come out as such I will be burned at the stake lol. But seriously I get it from their point of view and the witch view as well. I just know we should all learn to be a little more tolerant of each other and deal from a place of love rather than ignorance and hate. 😊❤
Not trying to intrude or challenge you in any way, just curious. How do you feel about the old testament explicitly condemning divination? Is that disqualified by the Church somehow? Again, I'm genuinely curious.
Welcome to America. Now imagine these people with political power and you’ll understand with what we are having to put up with 🙃
Thank you for saying this!!! Spot on
I love you so much for doing this 😂 It's so disturbing and painful. I do feel like being able to sit through a bunch of satanic panic 2.0 media is definately character building for me. 😄. It's funny too, because the very first thing that you put up on the screen to start, reminded me of Matt Walsh talking about everybody he hates lacking creativity, and how so many people can't even be offensive toward christianity in a creative way. 😂 I wonder if would consider Christian Black Metal to be an interesting music genre? I guess I should end this the right way. God help us all! Amen! Lol
The problem is that they only get information from their own biased sources and refuse to look into any other perspectives
Christian witches and Christian wizards (including me) laughing at those tiktoks pls hit like yeshua pls give them some knowledge of your glory AMEN. luv u and ur vedios ella pls make more of these
I love this. Please make more!!
Please do more of these! I love this!
Dont waste your life energy watching confused people because there are so many of them u can waste ur whole life doing so
I'm probably going to make a lot of people mad but when you turn to the Christin belief does your IQ drop
You should say in the ending of your videos “don’t forget, if you guys hit that like button, you’ll set your spirit free.” Instead of “you’ve given your life to Jesus” lol 🤣🤣🤣
In a word, you beat that video
Sh#t Video: it will not enter into heaven
Pretty Boss Witch: You know what ' I don't want go heaven anyway ' 😆😆😆🖤🖤
About the last one of the hair I would like to say to that person... Don't you know about a thing called stress? Yeah, it causes hair loss
These people love to play victim seriously 😂
6:15 in Europa verstößt so eine Handlung gegen fast alle Grundgesetze auf Grund der Religionsfreiheit. Religions- und Meinungsfreiheit heißt für diese Menschen aber: „Es steht dir frei unsere Meinung und Religion anzunehmen, aber nicht eine andere zu haben.“ 🤦🏻♂️
The gemstones / birthstones are in the crown of Solomon
Do the Fundemendalist Evangelicals know that it can be found in the Bible ?
"do not suffer a pseudoscientific con artist..." -the working class translation of the bible
It’s funny when the lady is stomping the books and stuff . She doesn’t realize by stomping it she’s manifest lol people kill me 😂
Christianity is an interesting mix of contradictions. The Council of Nicaea rejected the book of Enoch and so it is not included in the bible. Most Christians have either never heard of the book of Enoch or don't consider it religious text. The catholic church agreed to make their holy days and festivals to closely fit with pagan festivals and holy days to make it easier to convert the "heathens" to Christianity. And most Christians believe that Christianity is the most pure religion out there. What most Christians don't realize, either by ignorance or by design, that Christianity is as much, if not more so, bathed in blood as any other religion. I was a christian most of my life, only recently returning the the worship of my ancestral gods.
The Biblical cannon was not put together at the council of Nicea, that's a myth, it was actually regarding Arius and his heresy. The book of Enoch is litteraly in the Ethiopian Bible anyways.
Ich weiß das gehört jetzt nicht zum Thema, aber gibt es dein Buch auch auf Deutsch?
In deiner Kanalinfo steht "German Folk Witch". Daher gehe ich davon aus, dass du auch Deutsch sprichst.
Unter den englischsprachigen Büchern zu diesen Themen gibt es so viele schön gestaltete. Unter den deutschsprachigen ist sowas irgendwie sehr rar. Wäre daher toll, wenn du deins auch auf Deutsch anbieten könntest. Immerhin habe ich auch deine spanische (oder italienische 🤔) Version davon auf Amazon gesehen.
Hallöchen 😁 ja bin Deutsche!
Ich darf diesbezüglich aber noch nichts öffentlich sagen 🙈☕️👀
@@EllaHarrison Alles klar, das freut mich. Dann darf ich ja Hoffnung haben 😁☺️
Andere deutsche Hexen 😮❤🧿😊
I watched a vid with an ex psychic yesterday say that Crystal's are demonic I've never laughed so much this woman has turned to god what a load of bs
I love how according to some so called "Christians" being Christian is demonic XD
I really like this vid. 👏🏻
I do not know why anyone including yourself would spend any time addressing such people! They are taking energy and time from yourself and anyone to even acknowledge them and honestly by bringing attention to them it is helping them out. I did not grow up Christen (or any of the other major faiths) and honestly never had Christen people want to interact with me, never had them want to convert me or ask me to go to their church at all. So being a pagan, witch I do really do not care what Christens are saying and do not seek out them. If one is not have to deal with them then do not. There are so many groups of people that will not agree with you for many reasons, do not give them your time to correct them!
I recall on one of your previous vids you spoke of being ashamed to be of German background due to WW2. I did not grow up where you did so I can not speak of your experience, sad to hear that you felt this way! I am a woman who is a black US woman of mixed background. My grandfather was from Norway but moved to Germany in 1938 to work with the government, I think you get what I am saying. After WW2 to avoid being sent to jail he got changed his name and moved to the US and married a black US woman and had kids to try to hide his past. That said when he moved back to Germany and I also lived there myself I met him many times. Even with this I am not embarrassed by who I am, my direct family is! Germany has a long history of more than just WW2 era! So you should not feel bad about who you are. Many people's in the past did awful things so do not feel bad of being German.
How do they feel about Feng shai &Chinese Paganism ?
I’m on a journey to search for truth and my question is if you believe in demons? I hear Christians talking about terrifying experiences when practicing any witchcraft or getting deep into new age spirituality. Have you ever had any scary encounters and for you to practice witchcraft you’re channeling something or practicing rituals for a reason. I am not judging, just curious what higher power you believe in and what is causing your witchcraft to work?
There are so many misconceptions in this video I scarcely even know where to begin!
Its like that mentality where someone does something wrong with a tool thats available to everyone and so now anyone that uses that tool is put in the same category and people are told you cant use these tools because one person used it for nefarious purposes and we feel you are not to be trustedto do the right thing.
Christians and Catholics have differences. I myself am Charismatic and pentecostal. Look up, Troy Black, John Ramirez, The Supernatural Life with Daniel Adam's, Vlad Savchuk, David Diga Hernandez and Isaiah Saldivar and Kevin Zadai and Julie Lopez.
Yoga is demonic??? 😭😭😭 Okay no more stretching 😂😂😂
hi ella as a pagan and a druid love your channel blessed be
This is just me talking, but I was raised in a Christan environment and am now Wiccan and I just noticed that in my experience, Christians can be very wasteful. Like in the second video there was no reason to throw all the stuff in a trash can and smash it. Donate it. It made my heart sad. 😔
I'm born and raised Catholic, went to church and Sunday school and everything, and never once heard the Priests, Nuns or the Teachers saying to not do anything because it was "demonic" or to disrespect anyone that wasn't Christian, at least not at my church that, btw, is in a small neighborhood in the countryside of Brazil.
Another crazy thing, Catholics make over 60% of the Brazilian population and the Protestants make 27%, and even they both being Christians, the hate that the Protestants have for the Catholics are unexplainable, they call us "Not Christian Enough" because we have faith in Saints, they even went as far as kicking a image of Nossa Senhora Aparecida; who is the patroness of Brazil and Brazilian people, expectant mothers and newborns, also sea and rivers, gold, honey and even beauty; in national television, thankfully Catholics believe in God's punishment and that same pastor that kicked the image developed a chronic pain in that same leg and almost had to amputate that leg, but it seems that he didn't learned anything and is back in condemning "idolatry" and is a far-right supporter, and as far as I know he lives in the United States, so Americans beware of a Pastor Sérgio Von Hélder.
Also beware with me, because if I see anyone disrespecting mine or someone else religion, I might be Catholic, but I don't take bullshit.
Ich bin noch sehr neu was Tarot, Hexen und Co. angeht. Ich habe mir vor ein paar Wochen aus heiterem Himmel ein Tarot bestellt, ich weiß bis jetzt nicht mehr wie ich dazu gekommen bin. 😅Also habe ich mich wieder mehr mit Spiritualität beschäftigt, nachdem ich das vor einigen Jahren schon sehr intensiv getan hatte. 🌝✨Habe mir viele Videos angeschaut und prompt werden mir die ganzen Anti-Esoterik und Anti-Hexenvideos angezeigt. Das hat mich anfangs sehr verwirrt, weil ich mit dem Universum sein möchte und mich mit der Natur verbinden möchte und eben nichts „böses, dunkles, dämonisches“ praktizieren möchte. Habe mich dazu entschieden meiner Intuition zu folgen und das zu tun was mir gut tut und niemandem schadet, egal wie andere darüber denken wollen 🙌🏻🫶
Yes to the new age edition!
What if all the witches gather and cast a massive invisibility glamour XD
good video hope you do make a series of react videos
Ella. Why weren't those video clips reported to Tiktok ?
Tiktok does not really care even if you report the most horrible videos, it is part of why TikTok has become so unpopular
@@EllaHarrison I Agree with you
This could backfire on Tiktok...
when the irreligious starts slamming Christians !
I’m a witch and I would have thrown Scott Cunningham’s book away also 😅😁love your videos thank you .
Thanks for this!
These Christian videos looks like propaganda to me 😵💫 like the “witch” doing all that and throw her tools and sage, real witch wouldn’t do that ever at least in my opition. Plus the others are jsit hilarious. I was put into the Catholic realms since I was born (not my choice as a kid) and some ppl are programmed soo deep into believing that everything that is written in the Bible is true. Which is not as the translation from the Arameic to other languages they just made it all up as they wanted to. Just to program and control people. I am about to actually cancel my catholic religion as I was never into it and that is just a trigger let me tell ya 😅
