Nightshroud 329 Share April 10, 2017 (edited) paganism is my faith but its lonely on here being pagan. this thread is for any body who follows paganism. Edited April 10, 2017 by Nightshroud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StormBlaze 985 Share April 10, 2017 yeah when I was 14, was a phase. grew out of it though. but i just find it funny how much Christianity kicks off about Easter and Christmas and other smaller events on the calendar when majority of them are Pagan/Wiccan origins. - currently in the UK news the Church of England is having a go at Cadburys chocolate for not including the word "Easter" on an egg hunt advert. >.> those "in tune with nature" faiths are utter nutters during the Equinox and Halloween at Stonehenge. Have driven past it a few times with mass crowds. Its like a greener version of Glastonbury Festival. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud 329 Author Share April 10, 2017 I have a question since I'm pagan do I have to stop liking shit like classic cars choppers and anything mechanical? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StormBlaze 985 Share April 10, 2017 wtf?! no of course not. Classic Cars and steam locos are my life. you dont have to go all natural with it. unless you want to be extreme about it, then get off the internet altogether. x.x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GenderIsAnIllusion 2,170 Share April 10, 2017 What type of Pagan?.... its an extremely broad category, as literally any spiritual beliefs that aren't Judeo-Christian fall into it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud 329 Author Share April 10, 2017 well I'm trying to clear the waters so to say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Me being atheist didn't really affect me getting a paid internship at a decent company in the middle of the Bible Belt, so probably not. Although Buddhism seems to be a popular pagan religion... you might try that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud 329 Author Share April 10, 2017 (edited) the paganism I practice can be summed up. heres what I believe. mother earth needs our respect. Hades the god underworld judges us when we die. Poseidon controls the sea. That its fine to practice witchcraft.(while nobody gets hurt) this is what I believe in as a pagan. Interpert it however you wish.

Nightshroud 329 Author Share April 10, 2017 (edited) then what would make me pagan? not trying to be pantheist. I'm trying to go pagan. Edited April 10, 2017 by Nightshroud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud 329 Author Share April 10, 2017 (edited) sorry bout that I didn't convey my point clearly. here are my true beliefs well some of them. 1:The physical world, as an emanation of the divine, is good and to be enjoyed by all living beings in love and harmony. 2: We respect and love Mother Earth as a living being, Gaia, of which we are a part. 3:The solar and lunar cycles and the cycles of our lives are celebrated. This leads to the maintenance and revival of old customs and the creation of new ones. well I think I'm neo pagan. sorry for my outburst had a head ache so I went to go take some asprin.

Thuja 3,639 Share April 10, 2017 (edited) From what I've learned so far, most earth based faiths and some more older faiths fall under Paganism. For example, Native American culture is sometimes considered Paganism by some people because it's earth based. You can be a pantheistic(the belief of multiple gods) pagan if you want to be, many people are. Try looking up what you claim to be, read up on it, watch videos about it(Pagan Perspective is a pretty good youtube channel). There really is no One Way about doing things, your faith is your own Path and it's yours to walk on, it should not be something that is dictated to you by someone else.
