So. I am a nerd. I love scholarship and research of things. I purchase books on a variety of subjects and readreadreadread and research for the pure fun of it. I couldn't say that I am an academic with all the connotations that term has today, but I love scholarship.
Religions, conceptually, in which the priestfolk (at the least) were the teachers and scholars have always pulled at me.
Now, whilst I have spent the last 30 years kind of plugging along all solitary and bumbling along my own way with (neo)Paganism, I am now being drawn to something perhaps more organized and formal.
So what do I do? READ! :^^:
What I have found, so far, that of the differing paths and groups out there currently ... that ADF appears to have an emphasis on scholarship. Or at least so I interpret from their "About Us" page.
Am curious if there are others? And are these groups (including that of ADF) truly scholarly inclined in practice as well as in statement?
