Ryan...oh, please, you've misunderstood. What I call "christianity," with a "small c," I adore. Feed the hungry, comfort the sick...all the things that Christ said to do. (It's remarkably like Wicca. We have the "be nice" clause, too.)

It's "Christianity" with a "Capital C" that bugs the hell out of me. All of these people who think theirs is the "one true god," that everyone else is wrong, that god speaks directly to them, and everybody who doesn't believe what they do should go to prison, burn in hell or whatever.

In Wicca, we are taught to respect all Paths. And, I try. I really do. But people who use religion as a weapon against others make it very, very difficult to respect.

I was raised Roman Catholic - in the "one true church." I didn't fit. I didn't find a place where I fit until a few years ago...and it was Wicca. Here, I fit. There's a lot I don't understand...but I didn't ever understand the Holy Trinity, either. Over their, I was confused and miserable. Over here, I'm confused and happy. I think of it as a nice upgrade.

I think Jesus Christ is totally groovy, and that is said with a degree of profound respect that the "Capital Cs" would never understand.

I can not and will not worship a god that requires "quaking and fear." Not when there's a Goddess who says "c'mere....ya look like ya need a hug."
