The New Grimoire

One of the stranger articles on CARM is the article, "Is Wicca Falsifiable?".

   The Argument presented by Slick in this article is strange and self contradictory:

I have come to the conclusion that Wicca is not falsifiable. In other words, Wicca cannot be proven to be false -- or true. Falsifiability is an important part of evidence and even of belief.

   He then attempts to compare Wicca and Christianity in the area of falsifiability.

Christianity on the other hand is falsifiable. It can be proven to be false if, for example, the body of Christ was discovered and it was conclusively demonstrated that it was his body.

   Really? How could we ever know if we found the body of Jesus. That is an impossible idea.

   In my post answering CARM's objections I gave three things that are the foundation of Wicca.

1. The Divine, a separate realm of existence both a part of and separate from our material world exists.
2. There is a spiritual force that pervades this world and through it we commune with the Godhead
3. The Universe is fundamentally interconnected at an Atomic Level.

   If these three things can be shown to be false then Wicca crumbles. And unlike the preposterous idea of discovering Jesus' body, these claims can be shown false through Scientific Discovery.
