Mmmm... yeah. I guess I qualify. Technically, me too, being a straight-up atheist and materialist. =) Stella

quote: ORIGINAL: Vendaval For those wanting to read more about the various Neo-Pagan and Wiccan groups, I highly suggest the book, "Drawing Down the Moon: Witches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in America Today" by Margot Adler http://www.amazon.com/Drawing-Down-Moon-Witches-Goddess-Worshippers/dp/014019536X Thank you for providing additional information on Gardner, fergus. I was getting too sleepy last night to explain more of the history behind Wicca. [:D] That one is a true classic, but with over 30 years since, the pagan community has certainly grown and changed! fergus

There is a newer version, updated in the 1990's I believe.

bearincuffs -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:10:07 PM)
Unless she's part of the new inquisition lol

juliaoceania -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:10:09 PM)
I am more Pagan than Heathen, but hey, who is counting?

fergus -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:13:54 PM)
Eh, why should I about an inquisition? They were basically after converting Jews and Heretics. Now, if you start some witch trials, let me know. fergus

hmmmm - i guess i better stay on the narrow than the straight and offer pentitence every Sunday

The day will come when Christians will once again rule with sermon and sword .

bearincuffs -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:24:33 PM)
But if that happens, won't the Templar Order have to be resurrected?

FukinTroll -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:25:33 PM)
Brilliant first post.

windchymes -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:28:08 PM)
I'm heathen....on a jet plane....

fergus -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:28:23 PM)
Nah, the templars were heretics too ;) long before the inquisition. S'why friday the 13th is still unlucky :) Well, the Christians STILL rule, and by the sermon right now. If they turn to the sword, I reckon I'd have to turn to the assualt rifle ;) lol, but they have much better organization than pagans, so I reckon the result would be the same as it was 1500 years ago (more or less). fergus

Vendaval -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:33:06 PM)
The unlucky reputation of the number 13 is also connected to astronomy, there being roughly 13 lunar cycles for 1 solar cycle. The moon being associated with Hecate and other Witch Goddesses, mystery and death all factors into the symbolism.

sambamanslilgirl -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:34:30 PM)
hmmm that gives me thought - what if the Crusades happened now instead of then - who would control the Holy Land?

FukinTroll -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:35:40 PM)
Me!

fergus -> RE: Heathen/pagan roll call (3/1/2007 5:36:29 PM)
Has a lot of possible connotations, Jesus +12 apostles, crucified on a friday, 13 lunar months being displanted by the 12 month solar calandar (though, no explaination for friday) and the templars being rounded up for trial and execution on Friday the 13th I THINk the year was 1311, but someone will correct me :) fergus
