Pre-Script: In this post and in my own practice Witchcraft and Wicca are two different things. Witchcraft is a magical practice with or without a religious connotations, for most of the time it's a Pagan path.
Because I'm a Feminist Witch, according most people, I am supposed to hate Christians....but I don't. I think if you have Jesus in your heart and your happy with your faith than good for you.
I think that it's their right to have whatever path that they want. Part of my outlook is to have the most freedom in spirituality as possible but there can be boundaries in religion. Such as Christianity, witchcraft and Paganism is illegal in this religion as well as other religions. Witchcraft is not a religion or Craft of strict dogma. It's a magical practice that can have a religious leaning to it, so I think that if you want to be a Christian Witch, than go ahead.
I could never really understood the fascination with keeping with a Christian outlook while believing in an Earth Mother. This is something that I hear a lot of Christian Witches saying. I don’t doubt that they came up with this armed with the crystal/diamond theory of Divinity perpetuated by authors like Silver Ravenwolf and Chris Penczak. Divinity has facets of deities and every face or archetype is Divine. This particular belief is called Monism instead of polytheism.
Still, if you find that this path works for you than I wish you luck and Blessed Be!

Post-Script: I do disagree with Christian Wicca however. Wicca is a religion in itself, not just a magical Pagan practice.
