As I stated, I'm happily pagan following a nocturnal witchcraft path. I'm happy and content in my religion and find true joy in finally finding my beliefs. But in the small town I live in, I have encountered the good hearted masses that feel they need to invite me to church, to church social events, to sing in the choir and any other thinly veiled excuse just to get me to thier faith and convert me. I was raised Baptist so I know that they do this with the best heart and the best of intentions but rather than scorning my faith, why can't they celebrate it as I celebrate that they have found peace in thier faith?
I state this with the hope that Christians will see, and understand that Pagans will never try to convert you, never try to explain or force thier beliefs on you unless you ask about thier ways and only as long as you wish to listen. But we are pushed to find God...so why do we not get the same respect? A respectful answer for these good people please?
