| Q. | Reliable sources? | Related Search:
Religion & Spirituality | | | Ok I've been studying Wicca for some time now but havn't been able to get my hands on much reading material on Wicca (personal reasons), as I try to obtain more material both in books and on the internet it seems like its harder and harder to sort the "fluffy" from the really reliable books, and many questions on Yahoo seem to be pointing to the same idea that some authors spew crap.
So really the question here is who/what can be trusted
For anyone whos had experience with these sources, what do you think about the reliability of each and why?
Witchschool.com/the Corellians, Ravenwolf, Raymond Buckland, Scott Cunningham, Starhawk, religioustolerance.org, Gerald Gardner(obviously hes reliable but I've heard some people say things against him so I'm curious to hear that side as welll), and well i could list a lot more but I'd run out of characters and the answers would be huge to xD but yah if someone can provide some insight that would be great for me as well as anyoneelse confused.
| | A. | witchschool: No. They promote goofy history to justify their existence
Ravenwolf: Ugh! No. Her good stuff can be found in any other 101 book, and there's tons of bad info mixed in
Buckland: I'm not a fan, but I have no dislike. A lot of people respect his work.
Cunningham: Generally good. I still recommend his books as intro material.
Starhawk: Not Wiccan, awful history.
religioustolerance: Ok in a very general sense, but its not detailed enough to really teach about a religion, and it tends to paint a happy face on everything.
Gardner: His books are not meant to be instructional. They were meant to tell people about his group but not how to be a member of it. It's also muddled with a lot of bad history popular at the time of publication but debunked now. I think every Wiccan should read his stuff to know our roots, but I would absolutely not recommend it to a beginner.
My favorite authors tend to have only written a book or two. My least favorite authors are much more prolific - such as Ravenwolf and Edain McCoy. They're writing to sell instead of instruct, often promising that everything will be easy and life will be much grander once you read their books and become Wiccan.
wicca.timerift.net has a good list of book recommendations.
witchforum.net has some good threads about book recommendations. | | | |
| Q. | Why is it important for students to know the difference between reliable sources of information and unreliable | Related Search:
Homework Help | | | Why is it important for students to know the difference between reliable sources of information and unreliable ones? What are the questions you should ask yourself to determine if the source contains valid and credible information?
| | A. | If you do not know the difference between reliable sources and unreliable sources, you could end up getting the information wrong. For some things, it's not all that important. But, if you want to pass a very important test, you want a reliable source. If not, you could fail.
Not having a reliable source means that you could be receiving false information. And, false information could be very bad.
If you are wondering how to find a reliable source, you should first decide what to use.
If you are using a book, you'll probably be fine, as long as the book is legitimate.
Websites are harder to find out the reliability. But, there are ways to find out.
~Check the ending. Does it end in .edu or .gov? If it is, you've found a good site.
~Do many different sources tell you he same information? That tells you that you've probably found the right information.
~Who was it written by? Can anybody edit/write articles? Look for an author. Sites like Wikipedia let anybody contribute. Meaning, you could be getting information from an eight-year-old. | | | |

Homework Help | | | I need to find 2 reliable sources of articles from professional educational journals. Can anyone please help. I'm not sure where to look for these. I need sites that are reliable or anywhere else that they can be found. I don't know where to look.
| | A. | Yes -- the most reliable source, of course, would be your college library and your college library's online resources as well. Get thee to a college librarian post haste. If you are taking an online college course, you should ask your professor. | | | |
