First of all, let's start with this: "We are not evil. We don't harm or seduce people. We are not dangerous. We are ordinary people like you. We have families, jobs, hopes, and dreams. We are not a cult. This religion is not a joke. We are not what you think we are from looking at T.V. We are real. We laugh, we cry. We are serious. We have a sense of humor. You don't have to be afraid of us. We don't want to convert you. And please don't try to convert us. Just give us the same right we give you to live in peace. We are much more similar to you than you think." 1) What is this group for?

Z Paganism, in the broadest sense includes all religions other than the true one revealed by God , and, in a narrower sense, all except Christianity Judaism , and Mohammedanism . The term is also used as the equivalent of Polytheism It is derived from the Latin pagus , whence pagani (i. e. those who live in the country), a name given to the country folk who remained heathen after the cities had become Christian . Various forms of Paganism are described in special articles (e.g. Brahminism, Buddhism, Mithraism ); the present article deals only with certain aspects of Paganism in general which will be helpful in studying its details and in judging its value. I. CLAIMS OF PAGANISM TO THE NAME OF RELIGION. INFLUENCE ON PUBLIC AND PRIVATE LIFE Polytheism Animism also entered largely into the religions of the Semites. Hence, we are taught, came Polyd monism, Polytheism , Monotheism. This is not correct. Polyd monism is undoubtedly a system born of belief in spirits, be these the souls of the dead or the hidden forces of nature. It "never exists alone and is not a 'religious' sentiment at all": it is not a degenerate form of Polytheism any more than its undeveloped antecedent. Animism, which is really a na ve philosophy, played an immense part in the formation of mythologies, and, combined with an already conscious monotheistic belief, undoubtedly gave rise to the complex forms of both Polyd monism and

Extractions: What to say about myself? I am a 27-year-old Libra, born October 15, 1975. I am currently living at and attending the University of New Orleans in the Creative Writing Workshop , where I am pursuing my MFA in Creative Non-Fiction. I have an AA in Music from Westark College and a BFA in Creative Writing from Arkansas Tech University . Currently, I work at the UNO Children's Center, chasing around one-year-olds and having a great time. I feel like I'm cheating almost; I'm getting paid to play! In my spare time (which I don't have very much of), I like to read (sci-fi/fantasy mostly-I'm a HUGE Robert Heinlein and Anne McCaffrey fan!), listen to music (almost anything except country, but especially new age, classical, and rock), write poetry, compose music, and/or surf around the Net. After I get my Master's Degree, I'm going to try to go to massage therapy school because my best friend Jason says that I missed my calling with music and English and that I should be a masseuse. Either that or I'll do what I keep saying I'm going to do, go into publishing.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/index.shtml

Extractions: Introduction Central beliefs Festivals Useful links Introduction to the Pagan faith Paganism, or Neo-Paganism as it is often called, is a contemporary western religion. Its beliefs and practices are deeply rooted in nature and draw on the traditional religions of indigenous peoples throughout the world. Paganism encompasses a diverse community with some groups concentrating on specific traditions, practices or elements such as ecology, witchcraft, Celtic traditions or certain gods. Wiccans, Druids, Shamans, Sacred Ecologists and Heathens (from heaths and fens) all make up parts of the Pagan community. Whilst there are significant differences between these strands of Paganism, most Pagans share an ecological vision and involvement that comes from the Pagan belief in the organic vitality and spirituality of the natural world. Due to persecution and misrepresentation it is necessary to define what Pagans are not as well as what they are. Pagans are not sexual deviants, do not worship the devil (are not Satanists), are not evil, do not practice 'black magic' and their practices do not involve harming people or animals.

Extractions: by John C. Mayer, M.A. I am a Germanic Wiccan. That does not mean that I am a fascist or a racist. Like other Pagans called to a Germanic path, I am tired of having to deal with the effects several common misconceptions about my tradition despite the dramatic growth Paganism in the fifty years since the end of the second world war. The New German state sought its own mythology in the legends of its pre and post Christian past. The Grimm Brothers' collection of German folktales became an immediate best seller as did Jacob Grimm's four Volume work, Teutonic Mythology. The new mythology reached its zenith with the composition of Richard Wagner's operas Der Ring des Nibelungens and the medieval tale Parzival In the four part Ring cycle, Wagner created a truly modern myth combining the stories found in the Icelandic Eddas with the medieval Saga of the Volsungs and the collection of German tales called the Nibelungenlied. These operas also contain the very Christian themes of guilt and self sacrifice for a greater good which appealed strongly to their Victorian audience. One of the greatest influences on the doctrines of Nazism were the new sciences of genetics and evolution as applied to the human species. As early as 1853, a paper titled Essay on the inequality of the Human Races was published in France by the biologist Joseph Arthur. In the 1860's, Charles Darwin's cousin, Francis Galton was the first to popularize the ideas of eugenics and "racial hygiene" which spread quickly throughout Europe and the United states. By the end of the century many eugenicists advocated measures for the protection of race such as forced sterilization of alcoholics, tuberculosis victims, syphilitics, bankrupts, and the mentally retarded, as well as financial bonuses for each child produced by "persons of worth." In the 1930's, the cover of a British eugenicist journal The Superman bore the image of the swastika.
