Umm i thought the religious,monetary and political institutions were christian based? I geuss im doomed to have my soul eaten then as Im a pagan. I dont worship a serpent but the serpent is representative of knowledge in some cultures and evil in others such as christianity. Modern paganism is a way of life that reveres life not destroys it. How much did you research pagan beliefs not written by fearful god fearing christians? All religions influence and enhance each other. There is more to our spiritual history than the bible contends. There was a time when followers of christ and followers of the older religions worshipped together before future rulers such as constatine put fear into the heart of its worshippers. That is what I sense in these posts, fear of something you cant comprehend. The basic pretense in most of the worlds religions is personal responsibility and unconditional love for our fellow man. as I have posted on the other board i have had encounters with these "aliens" and my soul is stronger for not giving in to fear like I see happening with others. Pagan religions are just another expression of divine glory and the undying love of the great creator. Personally I have prayed to jesus and he told me that all paths are the same path just different scenery. Never fear, have faith,

love and light
