>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hi,Kellie, Thanks for yoir reply without being abusive towards what I said. (Some people do take things the wrong way!) I am aware of the word satan meaning to oppose,thanks for pointing it out anyway. I chose my words carefully & said what I intended to say. The point I was trying to make was that many people,Pagans & Others,seem to think that by referring to the "devil"as being the"Christian devil",or by declaring that they don't believe in such & such they seem to think that either it doesn't exist or such & such does not apply to them personally as it is in someone else's religion,not their own. Or, to put it another way,try reversing the "I don't believe because that's not my religion idea". Instead, find a Christian or other non-Pagan to say to you "I don't believe in the Goddess/God seasonal wheel of the year etc." Now that has been done,ask yourself "does the Goddess/God,wheel of the year exist?" Yes or No. As far as existence goes,there is No middle ground. I had better go now as I'm starting to stray off the point & become passionate about Other ideas. Thanks Again BB Weave Brightly, Lou Ellen.
