<p>Thank you for your honesty, wish many other would be so. I am a Pagan and I am proud of who I am, now that is not to say that I tell everyone. Even in this day and age, there are still those who would see us burnt at the stake. So called "goody two shoes" Christians.

There was a day many years ago I was searching for something (call it religion) and when I came across a book on Pagan/Witch I suddenly found myself at peace with myself. I haven't looked back since, now I see many things differently than I did then and my comprehension of it has seen some changes.

That's one of my answers, which I don't necessarily give, unless a person's seems VERY open...I will say I am very unorthodox Christian, and intentionally havent been to church in years, largely becuase of that.I might tell them that I've come to some conclusions that are very odd, and then if they want me to elaborate, I will try to, very carefully.
