***....It wasn't too long ago that pagans preferred to keep their beliefs secret, fearful of public assumptions that they are devil worshippers or ``black'' witches.

"Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit."
Matthew 12:33
No one likes to hear that we are doing crummy things. I certainly don't. But conviction, and dropping our pride, are the first steps towards healing. Some people will never listen.
In Hell, they will sing the song: "I did it My Way."
