Hey all.

[ladedadedadedadeda]

Newbie from Bristol here.

An ex Christian still finding her way. I can take aspects from Christianity, paganism, wicca, tao, Buddhism etc etc.

Have been reading lots but still not sure what I'm doing really. Looking forward to chatting with you all.

Thanks very much rosie moonflower I battle with the doubt and worry, hearing the Christian teachings in my mind telling me that I'm going to hell and led by satan etc etc. :-/

Welcome, ladeda!
I completely relate to you. I was a christian once, too and it takes some time to get used to hearing things like "paganism", "wicca", and "witchcraft" without immediately feeling the taboo negativity we had been taught. But have hope, because the more you learn about the truth of what these things are, you will realize there is no reason to fear them and it fades away.
Christianity is run on fear and discipline. What we practice is not. I find there are pros and cons to both.
If you ever want to talk about my theories on christianity and how I combine christianity and paganism, (it may bring you some peace of mind) then don't hesitate to PM me!

I use to have fear and doubt too. But, I have learned not to take everything in he bible so literal. Also, some things I just don't agree with. The bible says it's "wrong" to be gay, but I stand up adamantly for the legalization of same sex marriage in the United States. There are a lot of things the bible says not to do and I do them anyways. Eat shrimp, have tattoos, and shave my fiancés beard for him, for example, and I don't feel like I'm going to hell for that. So I just stopped worrying about it and practice as I please.
