Polytheism and Monism
One of the nicest things about Pagans is that in
general we do not get into hot arguments about theology. What unites our smaller communities are
common practices, not common beliefs.
We are little worried if others are not Wiccans or Heathens or Celtic
Reconstructionists or devotees to Orishas or whatever, because we do not believe our own tradition is
necessary for salvation. Indeed,
we do not believe in the need for salvation at all.

Are the Gods in Us?
Some interesting comments about my "Drawing Down the Moon"
piece in "12 Things..." have prompted me to offer a longer discussion, based mostly on
my personal experience.

Real Christians - A Pagan Perspective
The question of
who is or is not a "real Christian" has come up in this blog. It's my own fault, for I've tried to
distinguish between Christianity and the devil worship that masquerades under
its name in the religious right.
Since people calling themselves Christians have been fighting, and on
many occasions, killing one another for almost 2000 years, why get involved?

Real Christians Intervening in the 'Christian' Killing of Children
Thankfully genuine Christians are finally intervening. I wish them well.
And I hope there is never a case of moderns claiming to be Pagans acting as the 'witch' killers have, and that if it does happen, that our community intervenes more quickly.

'Christians' Killing Kids Accused of Being Witches
I dream of the time when "Christians" so concerned with others' sins begin paying attention to the travesties being done in their own name such as killing kids for being witches .

A Pagan Take on Conservatism's Contribution to Modern Irrationality. Part I.
