What is a pagan? Definitionpagan


July 2004. Not long ago a good friend of mine who ive know since i was 17 came to meet me for lunch. I was really looking forward to it as she had been away for some time. Many of you may already know i am a very devoted pagan. She is a strong christian. Never before have our differnt religions come between us until this day. She spent the whole time preaching to me about God. At first i laughed it off but then i realised just how serious she was. She kept on and on about how as a pagan i was comitting evil practices and that id been lied to and that God was the only truth.
I tried to be civil about it, suggesting different points about christianity that were a little questionable but she wouldnt have any of it. It saddened me greatly that she would do this, not just because we are friends but becuase it shows a total lack of respect for your fellow human to preach to him. I havent spoken to her since..One things for sure our friendshaip will never be the same again. Before you think it im not a christian hater.


November 2004
----------------
So im in the internet cafe, getting a drink and a snack before i come online and this guy is just standing at the counter and sees the pentagram round my neck.
He asks me why im wearing it, I say Im pagan
He says that not a pagan symbol when you conseider how old paganism has been around and how long the pentagram has bveen around.
I say, so what are you trying to say.Do you have any expertise in this area.
He says no, but im older than you and that *points* is a kabbalah symbol.
I say, i think your mistaken about that. Not wishing to offend him.
He says, you shouldnt be wearing it, do you have any tattoos?
By this time im getting very confused but answer no.
He says well if youre going to be something, you get yourself marked because thats better than wearing something round your neck.
At that point Ive had enough of this apparent weirdo so i just walk off......

2004-08-16 [Raiff]: Be welcome, everyone :-) Sorry for the delay..i was doing night shifts for a couple of days..

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: *HUms R.E.M* Why is no one around when I am?

2004-08-16 [Raiff]: bad timing perhaps *shrug*

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Generally seems to be the case

2004-08-16 [Elloquay]: Merry meet, everyone. :)

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Bonjour!

2004-08-16 [Elloquay]: *reads passage up above* Awww. That happened to me before with a good friend of mine. I thought since maybe he was such a good friend that I could open up and be honest with him about my religion. How wrong I was. Now we don't talk either, and when we would bump into each other, he'd give me a glare. (O_o)

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: My friend found my wee book of spells and burnt it to save my soul. Nice of her to think of me but unnecessary I think... But she accepts it now. I generally don't talk about my religion - Not because I'm ashamed, but because it's something so precious to me that I don't know how to talk about it

2004-08-16 [Elloquay]: Geez, it's one thing to say something but to destroy your property is just wrong. (>__<) I don't normally talk to people about it either, but I thought for sure that my friend would understand me. 

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: People can be unpredictable

2004-08-16 [Delladreing]: my mother did that to me...took all my "devil" things and destroyed them...she was doing it for me i supose but there was no need to do what she did. now i just keep quiet in general, if she knew it would only upset her, and thats not why im a pagan

2004-08-16 [Elvómir]: *hugs Dela* i remember that, she went skitso :(

2004-08-16 [Delladreing]: yah she did *hugs* oh well long time ago

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: My mother just went tight lipped, muttered darkly about some form of "stage" and has never mentioned it since...

2004-08-16 [Delladreing]: well you were lucky then, my mum still goes a tad psycho everytime some one mentions anything new age of remotely "pagan"

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Yeech, my mate's parents are like that. Thankfully mine don't really pay much attention lol

2004-08-16 [Delladreing]: lol the only time we can thank the gods for inatentive parents lol ;)

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Hehe yuuuup

2004-08-16 [Delladreing]: blah im bored....*goes to work on Playgans* still too much stuff to do...*sigh*

2004-08-16 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Ooh I went on there... that's actually how I got here...

2004-08-17 [Elloquay]: My mum is ok with witchcraft. As long as it's good, which I tell her it is. But by stepdad thinks not. He smashed my pentacle necklace with a sledgehammer. Oh well. :s I'll have to check out Playgans. :)

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Damn..you people been busy since i was here a few hours ago.

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: I dont think my parents really know what to make of me being pagan..they seem to like some aspects but not others

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: lol sorry LordRaiffLore but you wernt around and we all just started to get chatty lol

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: hehe..well as long as your enjoying yourself :-)

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: You can just call me 'Raiff' :-)

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: ok Raiff is less of a mouthful ^_^

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Yep...imagine if you had to announce my full title everytime ;-p

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: lol id just give up probably lol

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Yeah.. i would, i dont know how the servants manage and the guys who announce you at balls ;-p

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: lmao maybe they have it written on the back of their hands and have gotten used to the long names lol

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Well the servant get away with just 'Lord' or 'His/Your Grace' and i suppose the Announcer is used to it :-)

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: lol yah *eek thunder over my house....please tell me lighting strikes further away from where the tunder is*

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: I dont know *ponders*..Have you tried asking Thor?

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: .......i would but he seems a tad ticked off at the moment *winces as lightening lights up room*

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Well im sure it will pass soon enough

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: i hope so, we cant take any more flooding up here, we;ve already lost a lot of stuff cuz of it

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Well then you need to fill the base of a tree with concrete and then build a strong treehouse in its branches and then like link all the treehouses together with bridges and stuff

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: lol! and in a tree is the safest place to be in a thunderstorm? O_O

2004-08-17 [Raiff]: Er well no, in the middle of an open field lying down is

2004-08-17 [Delladreing]: ....riight ok lol well all the fileds are flooded her so im well up that creek without a paddle then ;)

2004-08-17 [Elloquay]: How about living in a hillside? You, know...like hobbits. Rain will roll on down the hills and you'll be safe from the storm. (^__^) I wish I lived in a hobbit hole. 

2004-08-17 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I live at the top of a hill so I'm ok :D

2004-08-17 [Elloquay]: Good choice. ;) I live on a hill too, but it doesn't help with strong winds and tornados. :s Hence, I would like to live in a hobbit hole.

2004-08-17 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I live in a cruddy country village... it's a mile walk to the nearest train station, therefore I'd like to live in a hobbit hole near to necessary amneities...ooh and lots of hobbit-y shops...

2004-08-17 [Elloquay]: hehehe I can picture it now.  A whole city with homes and shops and schools all under the hills. (^__^)

2004-08-18 [Raiff]: *raises an eyebrow*

2004-08-18 [Delladreing]: *splutters* help im drowning its still raining and my village is flooded! i live on the middle of a hill kinda...and the rain is still going up it!!

2004-08-18 [Raiff]: Ah..well then im sure we could all help you burrow into the hill..hmm would have to do it at an upwards angle otherwise youd be no better off...now..wheres my spade?

2004-08-18 [Elloquay]: I'd let you use my shovel.....but the snapping turtle bit the handle in two. :s

2004-08-18 [Delladreing]: hehehe yay im becoming like the hobitses ^_^ arent we my precious? yesh we ares my love!

2004-08-18 [Raiff]: I'll stick to being an elf thanks..roaming the grasslands

2004-08-18 [Delladreing]: i likes being an elf!! *fights transformation* noo i dont want to be small again with big feet!

2004-08-18 [Elloquay]: I prefer the forests and sleeping in my vine hamocks while the sunlight trickles from the treetops and onto my face. (^___^)

2004-08-18 [Raiff]: I like treehouses and im partial to the occasional Fort

2004-08-18 [Delladreing]: Forts can come in handy

2004-08-18 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Myself I'm rather partial to a comfy bed - particularly one in my woodland domain

2004-08-19 [Raiff]: *nods*

2004-08-19 [Araglas]: -walks in- hello?

2004-08-20 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I don't think so... but why would you lose them?

2004-08-20 [Araglas]: cause they think that it is devil worship

2004-08-20 [Delladreing]: you dont have to tell anyone about your faith if you dont want to. i havent told a lot of my friends as they would react badly to it i feel

2004-08-20 [Delladreing]: also see the Ardanes on my Playgans its the full list of rules for the origional wicca created by Gerald Gardner

2004-08-20 [Alfirin Lindlea]: *Opens her arms and waits for Ewan McGregor*

2004-08-20 [Araglas]: -looks confused- who?

2004-08-20 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Gorgeous scottish actor. http://www.geocities.com/manic_ewan_fans --> My website devoted to him. You'll probably recognise him from el pictures

2004-08-20 [Araglas]: ok

2004-08-20 [Araglas]: not really

2004-08-20 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Ah well... I got another hit on my website that's all that matters

2004-08-20 [Araglas]: kool

2004-08-21 [Raiff]: er.....

2004-08-21 [Araglas]: hi how are you?

2004-08-21 [Raiff]: Im ok..i would however like to steer this place back on course :-)

2004-08-21 [Araglas]: it's not on course? -_-?

2004-08-21 [Raiff]: Well no..Talking about Ewan whatshisface and hobbit holes or whatever it was is hardly Goddess related :-)

2004-08-21 [Araglas]: oh! -_-u

2004-08-21 [Alfirin Lindlea]: *mumbles something about Ewan being Godly* Ummm ok... let's get back on topic. So when you tell people about your beliefs, how do they generally react?

2004-08-21 [Elloquay]: I apologize for the hobbit hole bit. ;) Anywho...I've learned that telling people about your beliefs isn't too easy. I had a good friend turn their back on me for my honesty. Best thing to do is to bring up Paganism in conversation and get their reaction from that. If it's bad, then best not to tell them that you're Pagan. 

2004-08-22 [Araglas]: umm they either say it does not matter to them or they want nothing to do with me

2004-08-23 [Raiff]: People can be very cruel....and Elloquay i have the same problem telling people that one of my most favourite artists is Cher...people generally laugh or just look at me very strangely :-) Generally i dont say anything about my paganism unless someone asks or it crops up in conversation

2004-08-23 [Delladreing]: *dances* im the new pagan teacher on the et academy!!

2004-08-23 [Alfirin Lindlea]: *applauds* Well done! Ick, I've strained my back at work and I have to spend the next THREE DAYS lying on the floor!!! (I rented 6 movies for a tenner and I'm still gonna run out). Tis a pity I watched the entire series of 24 in 3 days isn't it?

2004-08-23 [Araglas]: hmm -pulls out a violen and plays a mad unorderly song-

2004-08-24 [Alfirin Lindlea]: *listens to melancholy music*

2004-08-24 [Raiff]: hmmm..

2004-08-24 [Araglas]: -rearanges song to make it distant and sad-

2004-08-25 [Raiff]: *sighs*

2004-08-25 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I don't think we're on topic enough :-p

2004-08-25 [Raiff]: Bingo, AlfirinLindlea :-)

2004-08-25 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I shall try and think of something on topic to discuss...

2004-08-25 [summerfaerie]: i'm a some of the bible is alittle hard top grasp.

2004-08-25 [summerfaerie]: i mean adam and eve?

2004-08-25 [summerfaerie]: and evoulotion. i really respect the ancient faith of paganism because it is so protective of the earth and i admire that in people because in all this religious war it goes to show that people still care about our planet ansd our world. if i weren't a christian i mite of taken this religion as a mainly daty to day basis.

2004-08-25 [Raiff]: Evolotion and christianity arent compatible

2004-08-25 [Raiff]: I thankyou for the respect you show

2004-08-25 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Ok this isn't strictly on topic... but I pick up my exam results in 9 hours and 20 minutes and I'm really scared. Ok back on topic. I'm a pagan (don't ask me exactly what I am, I worship my own beliefs in my own way but I share beliefs with many pagan religions) but I also believe in Evolution, scientific theories etc... so what does that make me? Other then mighty confused...

2004-08-26 [Raiff]: Just makes you eclectic

2004-08-26 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I don't care what I am now! I PASSED! Hehehe... my mind is empty of anything other then thankfulness

2004-08-28 [Raiff]: Well done :-)

2004-08-28 [Delladreing]: congratulations ^_^

2004-09-01 [Araglas]: ...../....

2004-09-01 [Alfirin Lindlea]: ......

2004-09-01 [Raiff]: gah..

2004-09-01 [Alfirin Lindlea]: ?

2004-09-01 [Raiff]: Off track...again..

2004-09-01 [Alfirin Lindlea]: ok...well put us back on track :-p

2004-09-01 [Dracotot]: Is this wiki new? I havent seen it before.

2004-09-02 [Delladreing]: yup sure is

2004-09-03 [Raiff]: Fairly new, Dracotot :-) Welcome..

2004-09-03 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Welcome

2004-09-03 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Ok so this isn't exactly On topic.... but does anyone know anything about these "Angel Cards" things?

2004-09-03 [Delladreing]: oh yes i have them

2004-09-03 [Alfirin Lindlea]: I just ordered some, coz my friend did a reading for me and either there's been a lot of freaky coincidences, or they were right. Do you find they're right?

2004-09-03 [Delladreing]: i find they are usually right yes, then again so are all my other tarot cards. but i like the angel ones

2004-09-03 [Alfirin Lindlea]: Oooh I'm excited about mine now :D

2004-09-03 [Delladreing]: yay! they are really beautiful cards, i love them
