I ask this because of some answers I got regarding reactions pagans get from others when they tell others they are pagans. Many said they would not tell, for fear of injury to property or employment. So, would anyone out there be such a person?

I know I know the history, it is horrible. They always claim to live in this century and that we can't hold the Burning Times against anyone who is alive today. I'm hoping this is true and that we have at least got past the fear that our lives are at stake, which is why some of the answers I got before surprised me.

Absolutly not.... As a matter of fact, I am a Christian who has many pagan friends. Then again, I am the kind of person who has respect for everyone and their property.... Unfortunately, I can not say the same thing for some of my counterparts.
People need to realize that every denomination or religion or culture has been discriminated against because of a "few bad apples". It is not my place to judge anyone or anything based on what they believe or feel. That is between the Holy Father and them....

I have seen the difference each time I wear my pentagram necklace in public. It has alot to do with the level of education of those you interact with. But yes, there is still alot of hate and stalking going on daily, both on here...and in public.
I don't hide my beliefs, The Wiccan Rede is posted on my front door. But if I'm applying for a job or something like that, I'll wear a moonstone instead.

Things like that do happen.
I have had problems at my job. My boss hired someone and is now giving the new person the hours that were mine. I have worked in the position for 5 years and the new employee has no experience.
Yes, its because I am a witch.

I'm christian i do not agree with pagans or anything the believe or practice but there is no need to hurt them that only turns them away from Christianity even more

Our fight is not against flesh and blood but spiritual principality's and powers in high and low places and in the Heavenly realms...etc... Something like that. But I've come across some witches and Satanic people who were in the same order of Hitler and Stalin and every evil that ever existed and they are just that evil. So why don't you grow up and learn some truths instead of being blinded by a powerful delusion. Are you led to this forum by some sort of spirit. Do you know what Christ great comand is Love yes Love why don't you learn something called truth.

My word -- of course not! I would never do such a thing. Not only is it illegal, it's a sin.
Jesus told us to treat others as we would have others treat us. I don't always succeed, mind you, but I try...
I'm sorry that people have hurt you. It was wrong of them to do that.

I can only speak for myself and the answer would be No, I would not even consider hurting someone else...regardless of their beliefs. I am a Christian.

I would not hurt someone if i met them and they told me that is what their belief system was. when people don't believe what I believe, i accept that as their choice, but feel the need to share even if they don't accept it as 'truth' ... I have many friends who are not the same faith as me
