I’ll be off-line for the next week and a half. Didn’t want anyone to think I’d been raptured when I didn’t show up after Saturday. Although, under the doctrine taught at the church where I grew up, I would. Assuming, of course, that I was ever “saved” in the first place, which I was never sure about, which made me terrified of the Rapture…
Which is one of the many reasons why I’m a Druid, a Pagan, and a Unitarian Universalist and not a Christian.
I want to be clear, though – I hold no animosity toward Jesus or his sincere followers. He and I had a long conversation before my Dedication and Covenant (Denton CUUPS’ optional-but-awesome initiation). While I could in good conscience be a UU Christian or a member of the United Church of Christ or even of a liberal congregation in a mainline denomination, that’s not where my passion lies. I have grown more and have done more good as an enthusiastic Pagan than I ever could as a reluctant Christian.
See you around Memorial Day…
