I keep hearing the term “fluffbunny Wiccan.” Whats that?
The fluffbunny Wiccan is one who is attracted to Wicca and has read a book, probably one published by Llewellyn Publications, and decided on that basis that they are Wiccan. The fluffbunny refuses to learn more, or to think for themself, or to consider the possibility that they or their fave author could ever be wrong (hello-o: anyone can be wrong, including thee and me). Their grasp of history is usually atrocious. They will claim that Wicca is an ancient religion, that with the advent of Christianity Wiccans had to go into hiding and that’s why there’s no evidence of them prior to Gardner, and even that Wiccan sacred texts had to be burned during the “Burning Times” to keep people alive (Wicca is not a revealed religion. There are no sacred texts and never were). Some will mention the witches burned in Salem (there were no witches burned in Salem. Fourteen women and five men were hanged and one man was pressed to death. None was Wiccan or a witch).10 Most if not all fluffbunny Wiccan
