I really can't put what I'm trying to say to words correctly, so, bear with me, people.
Basically... Okay. I'm Pagan (Eclectic). I feel that, hey, I have my own personal experience with the Divine which shapes the way I portray it in my mind's eye. I feel that it is impossible to have the exact same concept of the Divine among two people, even twins, because of different interactions.
I also feel that Atheists (yes, I capitalized the "a", I expect to be hearing from you guys for that) have an interaction with the Divine through another name, a la Science.
And I feel and respect everyone for having their own experience in their own way.
... but why can't some people just get off other people's backs when it comes to how they view the Divine? Can't they just say, "Hey, that's cool, you experience the Divine through Allah, God, G-d, Yahweh, Zues, Loki, Danu, Artemis, Aphrodite, Luna, Science, etc., and I'm glad your connection with it is strong?"
