Pagans, what do you think Christians can learn from you. Christians, what do you think we can learn from?

Question

Pagans?

I mean this question seriously. If you feel like being mean, abusive, or harrassive to either group in your post, please don't post.

Answer 1

I think that Christians can learn to be more in tune with nature and respect Mother Earth. Pagans can learn how to reach out with their religion and help people instead of being so secretive and tightly-woven.

Answer 2

I was Christian, after leaving the faith mainly because of the pig headedness, I found though out the religion and church.
For example : Always preaching about the only one true God.
How everyone else is going to hell.
What about other religions around the world people.. are you that pig headed that you think you’re the only one true and righteous religion.?
Obviously some do .. Seeing some of the answers. Here.

I am now following the Paganism Religion.. Of course an never ending learning that keeps yourself grounded.

I don’t think I have ever in my 38 years of life. Have ever meet any other Religion so demanding and pushy … So in your face. Than the Christain faith.

I personally feel more Christians need to show more Humility / Humbleness

I know there are some out there that do.. and are very true to there faith..
Some of these people I call my friends, they have my respect for me and my beliefs.
They have my blessings as I know I have there prayers.


PS.. Wicca. IS not a satanic cult.. If you have ever learnt about it you would know.. rather than assuming what a web page says is correct.. Why is everyone that believes in anything else but christianity said to worship the devil..
Just so you know.. Wiccans.. dont believe in the Christian devil.
So how can they praise one that dosent exsist.

Learn what your saying before you cast the first stone.

Answer 3

As a Christian, I can tell you several things I've "learned" from pagans. I put quotes around "learned" because I not so much learned them, but rediscovered how those things fit into Christianity. The major thing being a respect for nature; in the Garden, God called us to be stewards, "caretakers" if you will, and not abusers of the world that God has made (which was called "good" at the moment of creation). Another is not to pigeon-hole God into a gender. God is GOD...and as God, God is above gender, God is not male or female...heck, God isn't even male and female. Gender has everything to do with genitalia; so why would a God who creates worlds with a word need reproductive organs?

One thing pagans can learn from Christians: selflessness. What is often considered Christian "prudishness" is actually an expression of selflessness. When a Christian denies themselves sex until marriage, they are saying "who ever my future mate will be is more important than fulfilling my own urges and desires." Despite the popular image of Christianity, the Church was taught servitude over success, giving over recieving, the good for another over the good for oneself. "But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Mat 20:25-28)

Answer 4

Man cannot learn anything from other man, either he is religious or irreligious.
Only the Messengers of God are man's Educators.
In the past, some literate people act as teachers to illiterate people. Now, education is almost universal, every man has to seek the truth for himself.
We are truly equal before God, and we are all responsible for our own life.

Answer 5

Answer 6

People should only learn what challenges them in others.
Does Pagans challenge Christians in a way? If they do YES.
Do Christians challange us in a way? if they do YES we can learn from them

Answer 7

life is big. I have billions of neuron connections made to learn.

I could learn anything from anyone. whether my 7 month old daughter, or my 100 year old grandmother.

Sorry, I can not be specific, it is to broad a topic.

Answer 8

Tolerance? Live and let live? Keeping personal beliefs just that? If anything else comes to mind I'll add.

Answer 9

I assume you mean by Pagans, anyone who is not Christian. To start with you can stop addressing them as Pagans. They have the right to practice any religion they want, even if it is the wrong one.

Answer 10

Nothing really in spiritual matters, I'd imagine.

But hey, we all have something to learn from each other. :)
