THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF WICCA


This site keeps appearing and re-appearing on the internet. It created a great deal of controversy in the neo-pagan community. It's a very good resource on the diversity of thought in the neo-pagan community.
There's also a forum that poses the question: Is Wicca Counter-Revolutionary? There's a lot of thoughtful critiques of Wicca from a Humanist/Socialist/Anarchist perspective that can't be found elsewhere on the world wide web.

"The worst readers are those who proceed like plundering soldiers: they pick up a few things they use, soil and confuse the rest, and blaspheme the whole." - Friedrich Nietzsche, Mixed Opinions and Maxims



"But the power of science lies in open publication, which, with the rise of the Internet, is no longer constrained by the price of paper." -- Michael Shermer

"I want to be, if I can, as sure of the world, the real world around me as is possible. Now you can only attain that to a certain degree, but I want the greatest degree of control that is possible. I’ve never involved myself with narcotics of any kind. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke because that can easily fuzz the edges of my reasoning powers and I want to be as aware as I possibly can. That means giving up a lot of fantasies that might be comforting in some ways, but I’m willing to give that up in order to live in an actually real world as real close as I can get to it." –James Randi

To the question is there any harm in deception? “There’s an enormous amount of harm in any kind of lie or deception, whether it’s political whether it’s scientific if makes no difference. I’ve got a general principle in life that any type of deception is a harmful element in life and If the younger generation is raised to believe that there are things that go bump in the night that will marvelous things that can happen to them if they subscribe to the Maharishi or whatever, then I think we’ve got a very big problem.” – James Randi


"There is no harm in doubt and skepticism for it is through these that discoveries are made." Richard Feynman

ANTI-PSYCHIATRY VIDEOS

TeenScreen - Controversial and Unscientific
Bush's controversial TeenScreen program that takes children away from parents if they refuse to drug their children.

Mental Health Liberation and Anti-Psychiatry Movement Part 1
The narrator explains the basic tennants of the anti-psychiatry movement: that biological psychiatry is economically driven; that psychiatry suppresses people’s natural ability to heal by suppressing emotional and verbal expression; and that psychiatry suppresses people’s ability to feel, to think -- those things that are necessary to liberate them from various distress patterns and to be able to think clearly and to be more powerful in their actions. Psychiatry resolves people from any responsibility to think further about what’s really going on in their society or to act to transform it.

Mental Health Liberation and Anti-Psychiatry Movement Part 2
This video gives a extensive list of resources on the Anti-Psychiatry movement.

Dr. Thomas Szasz Exposes Psychiatry
What experts now call ADHD Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is simply not a disease. Psychiatrists have used diagnostic terms for centuries to stigmatize and control people. Black slaves who ran away suffered from the disease called Drapitomania. Women who didn’t want to submit to the control of men, had a disease caused hysteria due to their wandering womb. Giving a child a psychiatric drug is poisoning him, not treating him.

Psychiatry the fraud
"The only true political virtue is obedience to authority and the only true political sin is political independence. Independence renders authority useless and that is what infuriates it so." – Thomas Szasz You’re undoubtedly told that you’re mentally ill for daring to say that the emperor called psychiatry has no clothes, not to mention stupid and unscientific. The controversy about the myth of mental illness is not about science or medicine, It’s about power. When psychiatrists start agreeing with you, well then perhaps you ought to reconsider your position. Something may be wrong.
