Here you go - try the Belief-O-Matic to find if your views are in line with Pagan or Wiccan religions: http://www.beliefnet.com/story/76/story_7665_1.html
You might also learn more about all religions at http://www.faith.com/
Peace!

Read published books - they have to go through an editing and review process before they are printed unlike the unlimited amount of internet knowledge out there. Try 'Wicca, a guide for the solitary practitioner' by Scott Cunningham.
The terms of Pagan and Wiccan cover such a broad category of people that believe many different things. I think these religions work well because they are tailored to the person practicing - you can believe what works for you, and not believe what doesn't sound right, as there are many subgroups that are more magick, animal, nature, goddess, Celtic, Druid, etc. inclined. Search through Amazon.com for books and read the reviews.
Good luck with your search!

There is soo many books and ways of t hinking that it really can be hard to know where to start. If you are a teen I would say start with SilverRavenWolf books. If you are an Adult and really want the true feel of the paths found in Paganism I suggest getting the complete book of Witchcraft, by Ray Buckland. You can find them at any Walden books or Barnes and Noble stores

Your path is uniquely your own. Just be open! Sylvia Browne says that we have two themes. Here's a list: http://www.gnosticallyspeaking.com/themes/ This may help you figure out that you are probably already on the right path!!
It's natural to feel like you don't know what your are doing... This is a dessert period. You'll figure it out.

there are a lot of good books out there. you can get them from the library.
if there is an arcane shop near you that would be a good place to start. they sell candles, herbs, tarot, books etc.. and there is usually postings up about various groups that you could contact.
it has been said that when you are ready the teacher will find you. my teacher and i found each other in a writing group.
good luck and goddess guide you.
blessed be.
edit
good info in here.

Read a book on the topic, a basic one, and then do some serious thinking. There are soooooo many traditions to pick from. You could even go Wiccan and be 'eclectic.' That's cool because then you can do whatever you please :-)

If you're serious, you can email me. Your post though is similar to walking into a 7-floor department store and asking "where can I find it?"
You'll need to be a bit more specific.

No, YOU have to do that. Just study and learn, it is an ongoing journey that you will be on forever...and a very pleasant one! Good luck to you, stay on the right track!
