Dance naked round the maypole?!
  I feel so free and breezy. This is how the goddess must feel
  Only if we can do it in front of the church!
  But it's September! We've already put up our Samhain decorations
  Eww! Naked boys!
  Eww! Naked girls!
  So long as I get to wear socks

LOL, back when I was forced to go to church every sunday, I would bring my sketch book with me and draw... but only because they got sick of me drawing in the hymm books... rofl Father David told me once "You draw very well, but please, not in the books." LOL... I once drew a picture of Jesus on the cross and... well, they said it was 'disturbing' (although I think it was mostly because I drew it very realisticly and had found a red pencle ) I thought it was kinda funny.

i've always been flat out with peopel around here about me being pagan most peopel are pretty cool with it. all the "bible thumpers" even ask very good questions not all " OMG YOU WORSHIP THE DEVIL!?!?!?!" kinda stuff like actual questions to find out more about it, its pretty cool.

the best reaction in the world came from my latin teacher because he refered to pagans as blood thristy savages, let me give ya some background info here: it was costume day i was dressed as a vampire had blood(fake of course home made, it was tastey yum yum lol) dripping out of my mouth and i was drinking it (from a old bottle i had and a wine glass) so of course he says this i'm causally slouched over a chair the class goes silent all you here from me is :

" i greatly resent that comment *pours fake blood into glass* i like to believe we are very peaceful and quiet civil. and if you continue to bash my religion you can be sure tomorrow you will have no job to come back to."
-end conversation-
lol
class laughed

it was great the look on his face was pure shock he went white he was definatly the BIGGEST christian i knew, he has a copy of the bible(the little ones) in his brief case and a big one in his office rolleyes it was great fun tho.

my mom always uses the threat of "I'LL GET YOU BAPTISED AS A CHRISTIAN" when i get her angery rolleyes its funny at times.

Heh, I had a techer like that once... he was the law teacher, oh the irony of ironys... He said somthing about 'devil worshiping, animal sacrafising, lawless pagans' and I asked him (he went to my aunt and uncle's church) What religion beleived that their 'savior' had been brutaly beaten, tortured and then sacraficed, and which beleived that nature should be respected and left alone? He got very pale and very quiet... and my grade was stuck at a C for the rest of the year... I could get straight A's on papers and it wouldn't go up, I could stop going and it wouldn't go down... it foze on that day and didn't move again... heh.. he was afraid I would go tattle tale on him to the princapal...

Oh, and I would tell your mom that it dosen't matter if she 'has you babtised' it dosent' mean a thing if you don't 'beleive and accept christ into your heart' that would probably make her stop threatining you with that lol...

"So, you hate God, right?"
"*teasing* Why do you wear all that crap? You little Satan witch! God will burn you because you hate him!" "I don't hate God, I'm a pagan. I just don't believe in 'him'." "Please don't turn me into a frog! *starts crying*"
"So.. you're a lesbian?"

And then there's the onslaught of banded Christians who've been constantly trying to convert me because "God told them to" since we were in 7th grade... And their groupies that follow them around to see them bash me and try to convince me to be Christian.

Oh, and then there was this one time when this guy was reading a pamphlet off to me explaining why he has to convert me to Christianity...

"God loves you and cares for you. I have to save you so you can feel His love, and your soul won't burn in Hell and you can be pure and *whole long list of irrelevant reasons*" And the whole time I was looking down writing and he was like. "Listen to me! You're not even listening!" And I looked up and repeated the whole long paragraph back to him, but started with "But I don't want... ". After that he hasn't bothered me ^^

LOL. ^_^ Gotta love the people trying to 'turn you christian' Some Jahova's witnesses came to my door yesturday... I think I scared them sweatdrop They asked me if I was Christian, I told them no... they went " eek " (I live in a 99% christian comunity, biggest being LDS and catholic stare ) They promptly started spouting things about god and 'bla bla bla' and then they asked me about the baby I'm about to have and if I want him suffering in hell forever... I told them that I had worked very hard to have this baby and the fertility spell I had done had worked like a charm, my ex had left and I had to protect the baby from enough things without worrying about some place of fire and brimstone after he dies, if he wants to beleive in that when he's old enough than it's his choice and in the mean time he'll be a good little pagan boy and not have to worry about it.
They shook their heads and walked away xd

Hehe yay ^.^ The only Jehova's witness I've had come to my door was black, and my mother had just woken up and she's pretty racist, so she was giving him an evil glare and he just gave her a pamphlet and walked away xd It was pretty funny.

I liked his hat.

Laying it all down, let's be short here. First, "rights" are nothing more than identified enjoyable "freedoms" written down on a piece of paper. In nature's way, might makes right and those with power are free, whereas those without are not. Keep that in mind the next time someone puts you down for what you say. You cannot force tolerance upon anyone. No more can you accept a faith not yours can they accept yours.

And for those with parents finding out or suspecting... My guess is you're doing it for attention. Now don't snap back on me just yet. Think about it. If you really were secretive and didn't want anyone to know, would they? Of course not... But you do it to have a sense of feeling special, different. You read your books in school and make it a habit to let everyone see them and ask questions. You love being insulted and harassed so that you can get the attention you crave. I was like you all once, and it's just a silly game of bullshit honestly. If you really don't want to be caught, and don't want anyone to know knowing you will get s**t over it, then don't give them any obvious reasons to think otherwise. Trust me, it'll help in the long run.

Stay ghoul!

Ahh... But by raising him Pagan are you not taking away his rights to choose as so many parents all ready do by raising their children Christian? Hmm... Something to think about.

LOL, I'm not going to raise him Pagan, I'm going to let him choose a path that is right for him, if he chooses to be Pagan that's fine, if he chooses to be Christian that's fine too. My Pagan influance will be equled out by my family's Christian influance... He already has a christian painting with a quote from the bible hanging in his nursery, and he has a christian bed time CD, they have already started trying to make him Christian lol. *shrugs*
If he wants to go to church with grandma and grandpa when he gets old enough *laughs at calling my mom grandma* then he can, that's fine, but only if HE wants to, not because they want to bring him.
