(408 posts)As one, I'd like to tell you that paganism--which is a better term than Wiccans when you are talking about today's movement--worship or believe in any gods they choose. Or none at all. We adopt whatever parts of other spiritual paths that appeal to us and from other traditional religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Norse Mythology, Greek Mythology, Voodoo, or Native American shamanism, or atheism. We are not Satanists. We do not believe in Hell or the inability of any soul to redeem itself. We work only positive "magic," which is no different than praying or positive thinking or the focused deliverance of energy in a meditative state.
We all agree that the goal is to harm a few living entities as possible, to cherish the Earth, to cherish each other, and to walk a path of peace.
We are also one of the most accepting communities imaginable for all races, all sexualities, all shapes and sizes, all physical handicaps, and more.
