Default Can't be a pagan.

I posted this in general debate but I thought it might go over better here.




Late last night I was told that I can not be a Pagan because it requires going back to an older, more primitive style of consciousness...social as well as individual...it requires monotheism to be unlearned. But no matter what I believe I will can not unlearn monotheist. Furthermore all religion is a way of knowing the truth...without having to comprehend the truth.

Just since coming to RF, I have managed to disentangle myself from primarily dualistic thinking, which is at the heart of popular monotheism, and learned to engage monism. I seriously don't think there is anyone who can't.

So you go tell those people, from me, that you can learn it.

I agree. I tried a new way of thinking on for size...and never took it off, just left the old on in a heap on the fitting room floor, wasn't even worth donating to charity.

And the world is different to me now, so much BIGGER...so many more facets of things to appreciate.

I lost god and gained the Universe.

It's hard for me to imagine how a strictly interpreted monotheist could count himself as pagan. So if you're a monotheist, I'd be interested to know in what sense you take yourself to be a monotheist and in what sense you take yourself to be a pagan.
