Wiccan teacher makes bargain with multiple Wiccan gods to win the Lottery. True?

[trythisagain]

"You let me win the lottery and I'll teach."
So did the Wiccan gods really give him the winning tickets?

Personally I think satan gave him the winning ticket so more people will turn to wicca and turn away from God.

Who knows really...
If theres something to it then some more
Wiccans will win.
If not then it was something nice to say to boost the Wiccan economy.

They must have, because the guy won the lottery right..

the money will likely be cursed. He certainly doesn't need the money for food......

I know of no evidence that lottery wins are distributed by any mechanism but chance. In other words, the hypothesis that supernatural entities intervene in the lottery process is not supported by the data.

I think this was just a lucky coincidence. Plus there's really no such thing as specifically "Wiccan" gods or goddesses. There are tons of pagan gods that Wiccans choose from (well it's a bit more complicated than that but I'm too lazy to go into that).

[Diane]

He is simply ascribing his good luck to his fictional deity of choice like many christians do everyday.. What's the big deal?

I congratulate him on his luck and hope he uses the money wisely unlike many lottery winners who go nuts...

[amnesty sucks]

Sorry but the reason he won is he got lucky. His God had nothing to do with it.

I said it before but I will say it again

what makes this person so special

Why is this any different from the millions of stories used to convert Christians every day
