    Re: What's your progression?

    Went to a Protestant School >> developed major interest in celtic paganism and other paths in my mid-teens >> First manic episode led to me being in hospital for several months, afterwhich I stayed with a friend at Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery for a while >> Now back to paganism, more eclectic this time round, bits and pieces of different traditions that feel right, still with a buddhist influence.

        Devout Catholic ( Raised in a Strong Catholic Home, attended catholic school for thirteen years)> General Non-Denomonational Christian> Angry Christian who got sick of his church literally praying to good to fill their bank accounts despite the fact they all drove BMW's and lived in gated communities> Guilt Filled Catholic> Open Minded Catholic> Polytheistic Catholic> Polytheistic Pagan> Earth Worshiper that is probably a polytheist, though I do not see those who warden over a realm as gods, but simply spirits who Shepard over there land.

          Catholic > Buddhism > Catholic/Buddhism > Baptist > Catholic/Baptist > just simple Christian > unsure > Islam > Christian > back and forth between Islam and Christianity for several months > unsure > still unsure, though perhaps Unitarian Universalist (?), but mostly Neo-Pagan and/or Sikhism.

            Christian>Increased skepticism about core beliefs>Agnostic>Athiest>Gnostic(Evolving soul and consiousness into Godhead). That being said I have much interest in the ancient pagan religions of the world. Like the practices of obtaining the natural powers of the universe. I'm not sure which groups practiced that though. Any info?

                        nothing - interested in Church of Satan - antireligious - going through catechism, agnostic - almost protestant - interested in Dragon Rouge, MLO; Qliphothic Occultism - interested in Paganism - Shamanistic Odinist
                        "The idea is to be whispering, and not to gain the attention from the flock, but to get attention from the individuals. That's why I relate it to whispering. It's not something you can put on a big scale; you can't get sheep to attend to it. You need to have people who can stand for themselves. It is important to have a lot of space for yourself to be able to grow strong branches, which can stand in the most extreme surroundings."
