Wicca Wiccans Pagans and Free Souls.. live different.. be Neopagan!

the problme with pagans...

Why do we (especially pagans) feel we are superior to one another when it has been proven and stated that "no matter how much we know, there is much more to learn." Why do we think we are above one another? So you are a third degree witch?!?! WTF what is that supposed to mean? Honestly it means jack.Nothing, zero zip nota. What are you saying because you went to some fancy pants pagan school you are better then everyone else? I got news for you. No matter what "degree" you have you can still learn more. We all need to be more open as a whole pagan community, and be willing to learn from one another and work together. Otherwise are we really better then any of the other religions we "claim" to to be more open then?

We need to be more open with one another and willing to learn from each other, as well as help each other as much as we can otherwise in my opinion we are already dead.

Comment by Mishi on October 28, 2010 at 2:06am: Me > you.
No, just kidding. I agree with everything you said above. About 3 years ago when I was teaching my cousin, I realized there is no superiority. I knew a hell lot more than he did, but at some point he'd score better results than I did. He has an amazing energy. So no.. no superiority. Sometimes people who you underestimate can surprise you.

Zoey: Who cares if they don't believe. Their loss. It exists, it always have, it always will.

Comment by Gaia's Sacred Circle Coven on October 14, 2010 at 5:33pm: I so agree with you. I try to learn something more every day and I've been studying since I was 15 (I'm 40). That is one thing my coven is about and that is sharing what we know with each other and one's who come to us. I love starting discussions and I am big on buying 2 books a month on a new subject. Learning something new or learning more about something I already know is something I crave.

Comment by Cameron S. on September 12, 2010 at 6:40pm: Zoey: Ok first of all I like your name 2nd of all lol I love that picture icon you have, and third be true to yourself. if they don't believe you I say let them. YOU know the truth behind that and if other people refuse to except it then that's there call but that dose not mean it is true. the term Pagan after all is very broad after all. Heck I recently saw a book called the Christian Witch. I mention it, because I was told by others that that was not possible to be both yet that book proves it is. We are all capable of many things indeed :)

Comment by Cameron S. on September 12, 2010 at 6:35pm: Raven I agree. I also feel that everyone is a teacher as well as a student, for we can always teach someone something new, and we can always learn something more as long as we are open. :) I'm sorry to hear about your friend. Hopefully things wil get better. lol makes me wonder what she would think of this blog lol

Comment by Cameron S. on September 12, 2010 at 6:32pm: IOWA boy : I agree we need to be able to break away and yet still learn from experiences. It's not always easy, but I'm positive it's doable if we try. hell we pagans "do" magic after all lol

Comment by Zoey RedBird on September 11, 2010 at 7:46pm: Im a pagan but others make fun of me and dont believe me for it

Comment by Damien Fire Water on August 17, 2010 at 4:06pm: I wish there were more Pagans like you in my area. You seem extreemly wise because its something thats noticed, but not always talked about. I have personally felt this "put down" from another very close Wiccan. i dont think she means to, but some of us feel teh need to show if we know more than another, when really the one with the greater knowledge should teach the one with less. "Live an' let live, fairly take, and fairly give."

Comment by evil IOWA boy on August 4, 2010 at 1:03am: paganism came before all other religions as we all know, way back when cavemen threw rocks at the moon to see if it would fall, but being only a pagan? being a pagan is just a step in a direction of knowledge of self. yeah I took the courses, went to coven meetings & let myself follow along only to find that if your just following to be different or "special", well it's sad.

you gotta break free of it all & pick & choose from what works for you... do I feel that I'm superior, because of my belief system, no, but I am a better person for it! Good outburst, you got spunk & I like that. pagans do rock!

Comment by Cameron S. on July 4, 2010 at 5:41am: uhhhh I'm not sure I understand fully what the founder just said (scary big words I am not uses to are in there ^^; ) what I did understand is while yes it's the religion I follow, and believe in I am not stupid either. Beliefs should be open, and if we can not see our own flaws then we can not better ourselves plane and simple. :p
