Hail fellow folk,
I wanted to know the opinion at large on conversion. I know it's a touchy subject to some. Many feel the need to preserve our numbers into a pure breed system. I myself, come from a large and rich background of heathenistic beliefs. I have studied the lore, and followings for the majority of my life. I have a small following with some local folk, who I introduced my belief system to, and who took accustomed to it rather quickly. In these times, our numbers have started to grow at an alarming rate. I want to know what your opinions are on conversion at large.
I came up with my own anti-baptism ritual for one of my folk, who felt tainted by the invocations of his past. He willingly allowed me to perform it on him, and felt lifted of a "poisonous snake." But in your opinions, is this right for me to do such a thing? I feel almost hypocritical, for the Christians power of conversion was a sickening and destructive ordeal. I would never convert against anyone's will, but is it better for us to search for new folk, or let them come to us?
