That is an incredibly specific semantics question that I have no control over. I refer to spells as spells because the word for casting magick in English is 'spell'.

Why d[b]o Christians refer to the ritual of eating Jesus's flesh and blood Communion[/b]? Why is the Passover feast in Judaism referred to as a seder? [/quote]

NP here. That last bit was seriously, and unnecessarily, nasty, and so was your post where you asked a PP "what kind of monster are you?" for adhering to a formal religion.

When you slip in nasty/passive aggressive bits like this, it makes me think that it's all a bit of a pretense. I start to think that a world where "everybody lived like me and then there would be harmony" is a bit of a non-starter. Convince me I'm wrong?[/quote]

The question is legit. Seems like she meant that the term "spell" was jargon specific to Wicca, like "Communion" is Catholic jargon.

It only seems passive aggressive if you're really looking to be persecuted, or if you aren't used to making allowances for people who are outside your box.[/quote]
