    Sharing some thoughts about unity

    Howdy! We like to divide the world up into categories. This is to simplify communication among other things. If we had to be exact with our words in every case communication would take a ridiculously long time. The issue is that the categories and meanings we have in our heads tend to not all...

    Happy Lughnasadh!

    Happy Lughnasadh! How are y'all celebrating? We had a big bonfire with some family today, all bringing something we've grown in our gardens, or something from the local farmers markets. We burned some sage an incense, made offerings to the Gods, and had a really nice time. Anyone else do...

    Anyone else raised Pagan?

    This isn't a disqualification to those who discovered pagan religions later in their life, but I've unfortunately only met one or two other people who had been raised in a pagan household since birth, and I'm interested in getting to know others and their experiences! My family is almost...

    New and Naive

    Hi there! I'm Kurt, and I'm a born and raised Celtic Pagan from southern Canada. My parents did their best to teach me the basics of other religions, but aren't particularly knowledgeable about them. Although I'm not looking to change my faith, I've always found myself compelled to learn about...

    Celtic Reconstructionist Resources

    Just in case anyone is interested, I thought I would provide a couple of links related to Celtic Reconstructionist resources given that CR has such a large influence on my personal practices. I am relatively new to this, but I will provide more resources as I find them. Here are a couple of...

    Godless Paganism (Book)

    I've been reading a book that I think many Pagans, theistic or not, should take the time to read. The book is called Godless Paganism. It's a fairly large collection of essays compiled by Pagan atheists, naturalists, humanists, pantheists, soft polytheists and even a few syncretic occultists...

    Midsummer (Sonnenreigen/Lughnasad/Солнцеворот)

    Today is Midsummer, the Heart of Summer, and the middle point of the season! From here it's all down to cold, winter, and the end of the cycle. Bald schon wird das Rad sich dreh´n (Soon the wheel will turn) Werden wilde Stürme weh´n (Wild storms will blow) Mit Rauhgesang der Winter nah´n...

    Did the Pagans Fight like the Christians?

    We all know how in the past Christians of different denominations have fought, like the Protestants vs. Catholics. So I'm asking if the Pagans also did this? I consider "Paganism" Greek Paganism, Egyptian Polytheism, Norse Paganism, Babylonia, Sumerian, etc. and their gods/goddesses. I'm asking...

    How does one have a religious/spiritual experience.

    From the looks of things in previous threads I am missing out on something but not having had a religious/spiritual experience in my life. At least none that I would qualify as real or as grand as others have claimed to have had. So what does one do to have a religious experience? Is there a...

    Pagans: Are the stories of pagan gods literal truths or allegories ?

    This is a question more for pagans than anyone else. Are the stories of the gods literal truths? Did they happen exactly as described or are they representations of something else? How do you view the pagan gods ? What are they really?

    Prayer Experiment

    So the idea here was to have a little prayer experiment to determine whether or not the feeling I have gotten of peace after praying is just a placebo. This is not a definitive test but it is certainly a beginning. Right off the bat it should be stated that we won’t be praying for any specific...

    Whats a god but an idea

    What is a god? This is imperitive in order to know if god is real. In order to understand at all we must define things unfortunately. Otherwise the crusades and jihads start. Ive asked what is god for a long time. What is god in reality than the highest ideal. Gods are ideas in their highest...

    Atheists: How would you argue against polytheism?

    I've seen many arguments (and refutations of arguments) from atheists against monotheism, but not very many for polytheism. So, my fellow atheists, how would you argue against a polytheistic pantheon like the Greek or Norse Gods? I've seen some arguments on this page here (My Criticisms of...

    Christianity and earlier religious traditions

    What do people here think of the theory that states that Christianity can be disproved based on the things in its writings that have been taken from other religious traditions? I've been researching this for a while, and I've found a lot of interesting information on it. This article summarizes...

    What is in a Name?

    In my view, Pagan religions have little to do with ideological systems. It is about the spiritual connection with the ancestors, one's people, the Land, local spirits, customs, traditions. Sure, Pagans create great poetic stories that are told and retold with great joy but nothing people have...
