WHY,YOU MUST JES’ Gotta BE A PAGAN REDNECK!

For those that have a problem and call me a bigot. I am a Pagan, and one of the things Pagans have that is lacking in other religions is that both we can laugh at our selves. In point of fact, I am a redneck Pagan that it took over 60 years to eddicate.
But I still drink Lone Star.

Answer 1

Love it! It is nice that we have the ability to laugh at ourselves when so many others can't.

By the way....Guilty of 3! 4 if jack-stands can be used instead of cinder blocks!

That is what happens when you are a Texan witch!

Answer 2

I have a million more of those jokes, but you covered some of the better ones. I didn't see the double-barreled athame or the overalls as ritual garb though. It is frightening just how many of these jokes there are.

However, technically, "Redneck Pagan" is redunant, as Pagan comes from the Latin term for country-dweller, which likely came from the Greek term for hill-people.

Answer 3

Lol, actually I have purchased candles and incense at Wal-Mart. By the way, I could tell that you were a Pagan, you were too familiar with ritual terminology to be a bigot.

Answer 4

Very funny! Long, but funny!

I have a few fellow Pagan I have to pass this on to. Thank you for the laugh!

Answer 5

BRAVO!! It Translates into Aussie just as well!!

Answer 6

Get your hand out of your pants !!

Answer 7

I guess you find bigotry funny. What next, you'll be telling us some nignog jokes?

Answer 8

Answer 9

I LOVE it!
