so gardner did steal witchcraft, making wicca a stolen religion, invalidating all it's beliefs, magick's not really any different by that arguement, just stolen beliefs from other cultures.

moses wasn't the first one...however;

Abraham--The Journey

Abraham was just the first one to give many gods the finger and follow a more charismatic figure that did more for him; than all the gods of mesopotamia. i think three hundred people plus is still considered a group, unless servents don't count as people, but we'd still have him and his family, with lot and his family; before coming across the caanite's el and well, we have the first given name, Elohim for his god, negating the original basis of El.

or haven't you heard of the melding pot theories when several cultures meet. quick; without google...who was a caananite king?

but you know the difference between moses and abraham.
