What religion do you belong to?

[FlySammyJ]

Eclectic.

For the record OP, Paganism is not a religion, its a group of religions. Neo-Paganism is the word for the new-age stuff Llewellyn pushes. Followers of ancient pantheons usually denominate themselves by ethnicity or pantheon (IE Germanic Reconstructionists, Hellenists, etc), and resent being lumped in with neo-pagans.

I'm not pushing my beliefs, just recounting some semantics truths I learned during several years of research on the subject.

I understand that. I only said I was Pagan to simplify some things like a Catholic might say they're Christian. To be specific, I am a Wiccan.

I'm agnostic, hubby is evoluntionist and daughter is Christian (non dem.). Yep, a real mixed blended family! LOL!

Everything's better with variety!

I consider myself a heathen. That's the best I can come up with. I was raised protestant, but I'm not really a Christian. But I am not not a Christian either. I think there is one God, and whether he is called Allah, Buddha, God, or The Great Spirit, it is all one God. If I chose a church, it would be either Quaker or Unitarian.

I grew up Catholic.

I grew up, learned about evolution, and never looked back.

I am now a Pastafarian. Works for me

 

[Rusty Hills Farm]

To answer the OP's question I would probably have to label myself "Pagan", but I do not believe in organized religion per se so I don't actually belong to any religious group.
