CUEW's 15 Creeds
The 15 Creeds of Chruch of Universal Eclectic Wicca (formerly Silver Chalice Witchcraft)
- Do freely that which does no harm.
(That which may harm is done when unavoidable.)
- You can only know one person, and that is yourself.
(And learning to know yourself is the most important lesson there is.)
- There is only one thing worth chasing--Your true will.
(Everything else is provided for you if you but look.)
- There is no learning where there is no dissent.
(For only by finding that which we disagree with do we know what we agree with.)
- No one is your superior and no one is your inferior.
(But you are held to a higher standard then those who do not know their will.)
- Education is more valuable than money or magick.
(Better you should become educated and decide to change your faith than always follow without reason.)
- The ability to express yourself clearly is the finest ability.
(The Magus' word is law, that law must be clear.)
- Better you should die than charge others for your knowledge of the Craft and the Law.
(Professional teachers are not the same as philosophers. Philosophers teach for love alone.)
- Honour the ancestors with Truth.
(The Ancestors will not be called that they did not call themselves.)
- 10. Skin color, gender preferance, gender and religion are unimportant.
(Only Behavior matters.)
- Better to be called a bad person than speak falsehood.
(Truth is preferable to policy... at all costs.)
- A contemplative life is the only life spent wisely.
(Better to die a smart pauper than a dumb millionaire.)
- Find what you are at all costs.
(Do not deny your family or your calling. Honour your ancestral obligations.)
- Do not make yourself a burden to those who would not carry you gladly, and then never without good cause.
(In a nation of helpers, those who need help come first.)
- Revisionism in faith is the first evil. Those who fall into its trap never escape.
(Cite sources, ask questions, do not repeat "what is said.")
