Hear Me Roar!
by KatyRavensong
Age Group: Adult
I am pagan. Hear me roar. But my roar is only a whispered shout, a gentle breeze that goes unheard, drowned by the typhoon winds of organized religion.
I will not push my religion on you nor will I try to save your soul. I will not knock on your door being a constant nuisance to get you to become part of my "elite" group.
I do not seek "converts". Those destined for the pagan way will find it in their own heart. Mine is a peaceful way. In quietness and solitude, I find my strength.
I will not preach hell and damnation, nor will I tell you that my way is the only way you can reach the Divine. All Gods are one God. All Goddesses are one Goddess. The God and Goddess are one.
I will not corral your children and try to indoctrinate them to my way of thinking. I will not tell them that the devil will get them if they do this or don't do that.
Instead, I will quietly Honor God, Goddess, and the Great Spirit in my own way. I will follow what my heart tells me is right FOR ME.
I will honor the earth and its inhabitants and do my level best to improve rather than destroy the legacy that has been handed down to me.
I will never knowingly harm anyone or myself. What I send out comes back to ME. I will accept responsibility for my own actions and not blame the christians devil or my brother or my neighbor for what I have done.
Yes! I am pagan! Hear me roar!
