You know, there's no moratorium on stupidity. Plenty of self-despite among Wiccans - in fact perhaps even more than in general, at least from the ones I have seen (admittedly I'm not the world's most unbiased observer here since I think a lot of Wiccans get into it because they feel their "own" religion is somehow polluted and the best thing they can do is try to find some sort of mythical, exterior and exotic religion which is "pure" and "nice". I know not everyone is like that, but there sure are a lot of the other kind around.
