-
- This is mainly down to people being miseducated about what the Craft,
- and paganism in general, is. I know that here in the UK the Pagan
- Federation is doing it's best to counter this dis-information with
- publicity packs sent to the media, schools, etc..
-
- > So am I on the wrong track here?
- > Am I aggrivating you with these posts?
- > I am learning the Craft and practicing Solitary.
-
- No, No and fantastic! keep at it..
-
- >These are what I see so far ...just want to see if it makes sense to others
-
- Of course it makes sense to others, otherwise this group would not have
- much traffic at all!
-
- > Being Pagan sure can be lonely at times!
-
- Agreed, but if you can find people who feel the same way to talk to
- locally then you may change your mind! Most of all, do not be
- disheartened by the false claims about the Craft and Paganism, to borrow
- a phrase, these things are sent to try us.. :-)

-
- May what you wish for others return to yourself five-fold.
- Bright blessings and hugs,
