so, cj and silver, isn't strange that when a "christian" speaks all eyes are on them to see if they made a grammatical error or tripped on something,

Yes well perhaps it is for the decades of self riteousness that has exumed from the christian religions and arrogance that to be christian is to be right and that nothing else is real and anti-God. Or that we worship evil because we don't believe in Jesus and such. But I think this comes from the ignorant chrisitians who refuse to let people lay. Pagans don't go out trying to save people in the name of christ we do our deeds quietly not trying to convert persons into a way of thinking. So yes I do beleive people are watching for the little errors from the christians they are eager to cease the arrogance. A truly devoute christian simply lives his\her life and doesn't talk about it. Though I must admit that there needs to be a better understanding of paganism and wicca so I for one would not mind bringing that education to persons who WISH it. But I do not beleive in traveling to third world countries in the name of my goddess spreading the word with every mouth I feed and asking them to change as missionaries do. I'm not belittling what these brave people do but I do believe that when you enter a devoute radical muslim country to preach the teachings of christianity and convert people your going to run into trouble unless of course you have an army behind you.
