[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I am not a Christian or a Pagan. Just responding with some pagan/christian history that I'm aware of. People with different religious backgrounds and knowledge often chime in on these threads and in many cases they add to the conversation. The fact that other pagans haven't contributed may mean that there aren't many out there, or not many reading this board.[/quote]

If you are neither Pagan nor Christian, then all you had to do to stay on topic was talk about pagan history instead of discussing Christian history in relation to paganism, because in case you hadn't noticed, this thread devolved into a flame war between evangelicals trying to push Jesus and insult pagans, and angry atheists. That's definitely NOT "adding to the conversation", so I'm pretty sure you either didn't bother reading the thread (just like you didn't bother reading my post, though you quoted it), or you have a very warped idea of what a "conversation" is.

And in fact, I have seen Wiccan threads on this forum in the past. It's likely any Wiccan or pagan contributors to this thread were turned off by the arguments that happened in this thread instead.[/quote]

I hate to say this, but join the club. It's a sad and sorry club. No religion here--Christian, Muslim, or to a lesser extent Jewish--has been able to maintain its own conversational thread without without Ranting Atheist chiming in to abuse the believers. While I agree the Evangelical was problematic on this thread, the Ranting Atheist is the one who was really abusive and prompted the Christian defensive posts. It seems like Ranting Atheist's mission, or there's been some speculation she's paid, is to disrupt every single thread on faith of whatever variety.[/quote]

Agreed (PP you're responding to here).[/quote]
