I am beginning to think that this whole thread is just a "let's go and wind-up the Christians" thread?

Apologies. Tried to take you seriously - not enough there to work with. Adios!

Well, you know what they say about intellectuals such as yourself: Where there's no sense, there's no feeling! Tata rwan!

No, I'm happy to wind up anyone, without regard for, or discrimination based on, their color, race, religion, or lack of one of more of these.

A double yawn.............

I'm one too. We have a group/coven/clan. It follows a pre-celtic format from an ancestral source. No big deal - we all roughly equate to the same pattern though we have different names and stuff.

I don't wind up anyone - unless they try to be pompous about what they are then my wicked side comes in

I would suspect that Mark Shuttleworth has seen more than most of us flying around the Earth and seeing things we haven't - I bet that changed his attitude on religion?

"Aware" is a word One could use more. How many of us are gregarious in our lifestyles? Are we all insular in our different abodes?

Hm reading about the word "Awesome" - Actually I have an Amazing pair of ..... erm to break the suspense the word is eyes with a period sign ) I guess some of you were looking about four foot lower than my eyes roflmao!

Ilya, magic is just another form of code you might use to define a particular set of circumstances to set something in motion. It's not instant like in Harry Potter. Nothing works like that unless we are talking about Ubuntu! I worship (though 'respect' is a better word to use) entities which can be equated to nodes of power like electricity but are often seen as Gods/ Elementals /or Spirits in its more mundane outlook. To worship a tree is like saying "I Love you" cos you give me air to breathe and make it nice to sit under your branches and learn from how you live and try to apply it to my own life. Trees don't make wars. They don't try to destroy the planet like some other creatures I can name. They are in symbiosis with everything that lives here and the planet itself.

Hello everyone! I was wondering what happened to this thread. It looks like not that much...

Nothing "awes" me more than science. The wonders of physics and biology are crazier than any sci-fi. Why do you need some supreme being or omnipotent force to make sense of the cosmos(Yes. I said cosmos)? And don't tell me I don't understand the Wiccan religion. My wife was wiccan, as was her mother. It is for children, as are all religions.
