Tecoyah, I think what you are really embracing is neo-paganism. Pagans have quite the history of beating on people over their beliefs. Neo-pagans, not so much.
It’s hard to put up much of an offense when your armor is hemp and your odor is patchouli.
Like will said, many of your beliefs are embraced by certain branches of Christianity. Give us another 10 years, it’s growing more in that direction every day, despite appearances. There’s a real generational schism in Christian beliefs and the only way churches will survive is to become more accepting and understanding of the real world, ie: as described in the Bible. In truth, a lot of modern day fundamentalism is revisionist Christianity.
To add to will’s tag, Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan was the devil, the government is lying about 911, and angels have never had wings.
