    Trouble forming a relationship with the God and Goddess

    Yes, since whenever i have come across Wiccan sites they always talk of The God and Goddess and encorporating them into rituals and communicating with them,but that doesn't seem to fit.

    Trouble forming a relationship with the God and Goddess

    Hi,i've just come across an e-text on the website haydid.org which discusses jewish influences within the new testament. It is interesting that some sections of the text say that the new testament isn't entirely seperate to the old and is more of a continuation and also that Jesus was simply...

Since so many religions follow "good" entities i am curious to...

    Vegan asatruars?

    I've been considering coming to Asatru for quite a while now, maybe even from around mid 2005, but i have a few issues concerning my Veganism for one. During gatherings, a horn is used to drink, presumably from an animal, which is against my beliefs; also, the belief that a pig is slaughtered at...

    abrahamic - satan

    You are all talking about Lucifer's fall, yet in earler translations, . John J. Robinson in A Pilgrim's Path, pp. 47-48 explains: "In the original Hebrew text, the fourteenth chapter of Isaiah is not about a fallen angel, but about a fallen Babylonian king, who during his lifetime had...
