Paganism is a largely unexplored country of thought littered with tangled
forests of confusion, deserts of trial and error, mountains of forgiveness, and
rivers of woe. The pagan world has no boundaries save for self imposed
limitations that are often drawn by fear, misinterpretation, emotional
insecurity, or the fact that some people are just bat shit crazy. No, really!

The Pagan world has a wildlife population that defies imagination. From the

we do all of that just to have something to do. (And produce stupid
and needless jobs.)

There has always been and always will be people who have a strong feeling deep
down inside them that they are searching for something even though many of them
never have the epiphany of what that something is. It's instinctive and unique
