I'm drawn more to the pagan traditions, celebrating solstices and equinoxes, the moon cycle, and nature itself, but haven't committed to any particular path. I just feel that there isn't one true path or religion out there that can be laid out for a person to follow completely. It's more a personal path we each have to take, and it's different for everyone.

@FaeLuna I attended a Pagan event some years ago where Pagans of various tradition spoke about their beliefs. I clearly remember one speaker boldly announcing "I know that my path is the right one...". There was a shocked silence before he added - "...for me."

I can't now remember if it were he or one of the others who said that, if there be an ultimate creator, there can only be one, it just chooses to appear to each of us differently.

@Sharon I would love to go to a pagan festival some time. They always seem like so much fun, and I'd love to talk with people that share a common belief and that everyone's path is different is a huge part of that. Seems way more open than the few times I've gone to a church service and just sat in anxiety the whole time not knowing the ritual and worrying about doing the wrong thing at the wrong time.

@FaeLuna I've been to a few events like that here in the UK. Everyone was very friendly and non-judgmental. No one tried to force their beliefs onto other either. Occasionally christian zealots turn up to try to cause trouble but they don't last long.
