Holy shit, both these guys, especially Buckland has such a BALANCED point of view on how different religions can exist simultaneously and that the binary of good and evil does not exist. It is so incredibly rare to see such a mature perspective these days!
The poise and grace that both these men displayed in front of such ignorance and hate is truly commendable. Its not something with which, if placed in their shoes, I would be able to articulate so elegantly and peacefully.
Scott has such amazing kindness and gentleness in his eyes. Thank you so much for posting this. How patient they are with such annoyingly vapid questions.
I love how they answered every question and let the people without argument, even the audience trying their best to find something to say that they are evil
Too many times in my life have I been shut down, shut up, abused, disrespected or harmed by those who claim their faith is the ONE and ONLY truth, by those who choose to invalidate my beliefs and practices (as a witch myself). Like how that woman who called in to the show was attempting to do, she wasn't there to ask a question or talk about witchcraft. She was there to hurt, to harm, to demean and put down those who believe differently than her. And despite what Scott and Raymond said she did not listen, she was blind, she was foolish. I am sad for her and her family, I am proud of Scott and Raymond for how good natured, stern but kind and respectful they were to someone who purposely called to hurt them and spread hatred and bigotry.
Thanks for sharing ! I love the way they answer, with calm and tolerance, accepting the other religions and various paths... despite the bit of trolling at the end (which they handle beautifully !) ! : D
I was at a Summer Solstice father in Texas where Buckland was attempting. Was awesome to get to meet him , be in ritual with him. See you in the next life Ray.
as witch since 1978 being what people call an old crone we do not all follow Wicca we just do our normal thing go to work cook clean We celebrate the changing of the season 90 % of us practice alone We do not believe in the devil we believe in a Creator neither male or female just a force of the Universe
Sounds a lot like me. When people ask me what I believe in, I just tell them I believe in a Source. Or just a God-Source. I've gotten plenty of confused looks from old ladies.
When Bucky started speaking about the old man in the garden, I thought he might begin saying some sort of rhyme! 😆 The bible thumping, barrel-assing woman on the phone was cringey!! Some only know how to shoot themselves in the foot and then proceed to put that same foot, bleeding and ghastly into their own mouths. Quite a display, and not truly a Christian one by any stretch!
The questions they asked were ignorant, and it seemd like the whole thing was set up to make fun of these two, who by the way are two of my favorate authors.
That’s literally the point- To ask “ignorant” questions- The kinds of questions that the audience would have because they don’t know anything- and allow the guests to address these topics/issues/“ignorant ideas” of the general public.
I don't understand how it's so hard for some people to understand that their religion (Christianity in this case) is not the one true and only religion for everybody. Each and every person is on their own path and if that path does not worship the Christian god or for the Christian bible, then Christian concepts do NOT apply to them. Sadly, even though this video is somewhat older now, many people are still just as hateful and unwilling to tolerate anything different from what they were taught as the audience is in this video. This country was founded on religious tolerance. Get that through your thick skulls and stop harassing people who've done absolutely nothing to hurt you!
What I wish they would have shared is the power of herbs and spices for different rituals. That woman caller is full of it. She’s no witch. She just wanted to talk about Jesus. So glad he was classy but put her in her place lol 😂
Not a very good story though “I did a spell and my uncle died so I got some money and was able to move.” (But I don’t harm anyone…) I mean personally I get it but that’s just kind of not the best example when you are saying witchcraft doesn’t harm anyone and then you say you did a spell and someone died.
Tell me you have no life without telling me you have no life. Please go do your thing, we will do ours. Don't forget, "Love thy neighbor", except when you can't and you just have to "comment." Besides, we know that both Scott & Ray are doing really well in the Summerlands, enjoying their afterlife, as I hope that you one day enjoy yours.
The woman on the phone says that she worships the person of Jesus Christ but this is idolatry according to Judaism. The Abrahamic god says in Deuteronomy that he will never come as a man. Scott Cunningham and the other man did a nice job explaining their beliefs.
The ignorance of this audience is unreal! It reminds me of people coming into the barn and asking which cow gives chocolate milk, it is on the same level of intelligence.
I they didn’t make him die they did a spell to give him money and the universe, forces of nature whatever you wanna call it responded by killing his uncle to give him the money
I think the Satanist (Christian) that called in, is she even ever "was" a Satanist, or a witch for that matter, would have known that Jesus WAS (IS) a witch. Just saying.... TOTALLY A FAKE CALLER!!!! lol (but yeah... slightly annoying)

exactly what i was thinking - what dumb questions!
I remember these days when witches were considered freaks! It is so so different now (thankfully!)
It must have been hard as heck to keep a straight face when that fundie was on the phone... :D
I agree. The questions are so so dry.
Blessed be to that 😊🙏🏻💜
I love how they answered every question and let the people without argument, even the audience trying their best to find something to say that they are evil
Oh wow. How lovely to hear Scott's voice after all these years. Thank you, so much, for this.
is that the name of the man next to Buckland because I was wondering who that was

They certainly were brave! I would be in tears 😭😭😭😭
So great. My two favorite Wiccans representing! This is gold
Thanks for sharing ! I love the way they answer, with calm and tolerance, accepting the other religions and various paths... despite the bit of trolling at the end (which they handle beautifully !) ! : D
Luv these guys
RIP to the both of them. And thankyou for your books. Otherwise I would have been berift...
❤
I was at a Summer Solstice father in Texas where Buckland was attempting. Was awesome to get to meet him , be in ritual with him.
See you in the next life Ray.
I really needed to hear Buckland's rebuttal of the reformed witch.
Handled beautifully 🙏🏻💜💜💜
This is awesome, we even saw an ancient Karen who called in to rub in her personal beliefs to a whole show. lol
Ancient? Lmao.
Hahaha!!! Giiirl! YAS! Ancient! But these witches just took the high road, gave her props and looked so distinguished doing it!!! #reallove #goals
@@ashledashnaw2575 Yes, ANCIENT. What? You think this was filmed 2 years ago ?
Ancient Karen🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was a follower of the Goddess Karen in a past life, and I am offended. 🤣
He put that bitch in her place! Lmaoooo omg I like him
What is the date for this video? Also, I wish I could’ve met Scott Cunningham. Through his books, he is an awesome teacher.
as witch since 1978 being what people call an old crone we do not all follow Wicca we just do our normal thing go to work cook clean We celebrate the changing of the season 90 % of us practice alone We do not believe in the devil we believe in a Creator neither male or female just a force of the Universe

9:30 Cunningham’s expression tells me that he’s thing “this lady is full of it.”

great to see a terrified audiance
Ray took down that "ex witch" with such class
The questions they asked were ignorant, and it seemd like the whole thing was set up to make fun of these two, who by the way are two of my favorate authors.
That’s literally the point-
To ask “ignorant” questions-

Scott Cunningham is my favorite author on Wicca. I wish he lived a much longer life.
Great guys.
Much love everyone
Om mani padme hum
10:48 😂😂😂😂 love this.
“If you found what is right for you then I am very happy for you.”
Two amazing Witches ❤
Masterful.
How can you spot an evangelical? They call into a talk show and lie about "previous beliefs".
I don't understand how it's so hard for some people to understand that their religion (Christianity in this case) is not the one true and only religion for everybody. Each and every person is on their own path and if that path does not worship the Christian god or for the Christian bible, then Christian concepts do NOT apply to them.

When is this video from and what is the tv show called??
What I wish they would have shared is the power of herbs and spices for different rituals. That woman caller is full of it. She’s no witch. She just wanted to talk about Jesus. So glad he was classy but put her in her place lol 😂
You’d have to be on your shit to deal with all of that idiocy, And Raymond Buckland was on it! I’ve always appreciated him.
Do you know approximately what year this was? Thank you!
Elsewhere, it was said filmed in 1987.
Year for the video? Thanks for share this.
Guess late 80s or very early 90s.
As lendas ai ❤❤❤❤
To say "there is no good witch" is like saying "there is no bad christian" It's a silly stone to throw. Lol
When did this air?
1989. there's a longer version of this video floating around youtube if u look it up.
Judging by the quality of the video, clothing, glasses, and tone of voice, I'd say late 70's to maybe late 80's
Not a very good story though “I did a spell and my uncle died so I got some money and was able to move.” (But I don’t harm anyone…)
I mean personally I get it but that’s just kind of not the best example when you are saying witchcraft doesn’t harm anyone and then you say you did a spell and someone died.
He didn’t say he died because of that he may have already been sick
The question, are you evil? Is so ignorant and childish.
Well, at least they both now know that the devil and hell are real.
Tell me you have no life without telling me you have no life. Please go do your thing, we will do ours. Don't forget, "Love thy neighbor", except when you can't and you just have to "comment." Besides, we know that both Scott & Ray are doing really well in the Summerlands, enjoying their afterlife, as I hope that you one day enjoy yours.
If your faith was so strong you wouldn't be seeking out witchcraft videos.
The woman on the phone says that she worships the person of Jesus Christ but this is idolatry according to Judaism. The Abrahamic god says in Deuteronomy that he will never come as a man.
Scott Cunningham and the other man did a nice job explaining their beliefs.
Another show trying to humiliate gests again and contrasting the beliefs
The ignorance of this audience is unreal! It reminds me of people coming into the barn and asking which cow gives chocolate milk, it is on the same level of intelligence.
So they made his neighbor's uncle die?
I they didn’t make him die they did a spell to give him money and the universe, forces of nature whatever you wanna call it responded by killing his uncle to give him the money
An example is given in Rays Blue Book
I know a lot of witches but not the good kind. Ooh so you know bad witches… caller… NO 🤨
I think the Satanist (Christian) that called in, is she even ever "was" a Satanist, or a witch for that matter, would have known that Jesus WAS (IS) a witch. Just saying.... TOTALLY A FAKE CALLER!!!! lol (but yeah... slightly annoying)
