Well, I would like to say that I am a Christian. And I completely respect anyone's right to worship whomever and whatever they wish to. This includes every religion, even those that aren't officially recognized. I would also like to point out that a great majority of Christians don't actually have a problem with other religions. It’s just the crazy ones that do. And those are the ones who tend to get all of the attention.
@theproblemswithlife Well said and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! I think its really sad that the numbers of "crazy" religious people are really few compared to the rest of the population and yet those few seem to be able to ruin every thing for the rest of us. Its when they manage to gain such control in our government affairs that makes it possible for them to be able to do the harm they do. If not for that they would probably be only annoying but harmless.
@theproblemswithlife "majority of Christians don't actually have a problem with other religions" Then they aren't following the bible. The teachings of the supposed jesus of nazareth and the 10 commandments do not allow salvation to those whom choose other religions. Why don't you actually say what your religious doctrine affirms? I'm not impressed with cafeteria-christians
@XforeverlongingX Then we'd be raping every virgin and stoning disobedient children. Times change, and while most of the bible should continue to be followed by Christians, there are questionable parts that no one still acts on. One should not condemn the other for being a different religion, or different in general. That is God's job at the end of the day, not ours.
@theproblemswithlife I just want to say thank you. It is such a relief to see someone on here who is so open minded. Those who are rude to us and other religions should look to you as a good example. The world of YouTube is unfortunately overrun with judgmental people. =)
I honestly think that there are more of us than realized. just too many of us are stuck in the "broom closet". And honestly we do have to be careful, we are frowned upon, however, we still have to be proud of who we are. )O( blessed be
@AnimeMusic100 Well, if you live in the USA then you should not feel that way. Its all about freedom of religion. But freedom does not exist if you don't stand up and fight for it. And then after you have it you have to keep on fighting to keep it or else you'll end up hiding in the "closet" like you said. I'm not a Druid nor a Pagan nor a Wiccan. But I still respect everyone's right to choose what they believe in. And any way, there are still things to learn from the "old ways".
@batlady2 oh bullshit the usa doesn't give a DAMN about freedom of religion and you know that as well as i do all it cares about are christians any other religion it frowns upon the goverment and everyone else are assholes
@WORMIE4456W Well, sadly that is true most of the time which is why its very important that we keep on standing up and fighting for our rights.
Hey, I can relate my dear. I'm a Muslim. They don't like us much here either. But I don't care. I respect your right to pray to, and believe in, your greater power, whom ever or what ever that is, as long as you do the same for me. Deal?
@WORMIE4456W And I respect every one's right to NOT believe in any higher power as well. We all have the right to free will. There can be no compulsion in religion. The Quran even says that. So if I tried to force someone to believe in a certain religion I would be going against my own religion in doing so. Besides, if a belief has to be forced its not a real belief then. We are human beings not robots.
@batlady2 Unfortunately, although the U.S. was supposedly built upon tolerance for religion, this is not so. There are many very fanatic Christian groups which are becoming more aggressive and intolerant to what they call "witchcraft". They shut down new age stores and protest when we try to gather. They would institute the burnings again if they could. Especially in the south. Be careful, be strong and be well fellow Earth lovers.
@TheEidolon7 Yes I agree and these over zealous "Christians" have WAY to much influence in our government affairs too! Especially when Bush was in office. They have this idea about "helping" the "Lord" to bring on His "Rapture". The "end times" as they call it. It can't happen soon enough for them so they try to make it happen themselves. They make up their own prophesies themselves. Then people die because of it. They are insane and dangerous to us all.
@AnimeMusic100 yes but eventually we have to be honest with not only others but our selves i came out to a group of people in a small church run town were every thing is frowned upon, but every body knows that we are witches. it is hard but the longer we hide our selve the harder it will be to let the worldknow who and howwe really are. i love you all blessed be. happy merry yuletide
@pagan1959 And a Merry Yuletide right back at ya! Be sure to watch my video "God rest ye merry Gentlemen" from my holiday play list. I think you'll like it. Not your average "comfort and Joy" video if you know what I mean. (grin)
Hello all. Here are a few things to consider: 1. I'm a Roman Catholic, and I find everything different from my own faith (NOT religion, thanks. :) ) to be absolutely fascinating. 2. There is beauty in variety, not conformity. 3. Everyone is unique, and therefore must be appreciated for who they are and what they believe. If you don't agree with what others believe, make peace with them, don't fight them. That is all. :D
@90sBrat Very well said! Peaceful and welcoming message from you. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. If only all of humanity would just live by that concept what a wonderful world this would be.
@DecemberResplendence Yes, its sort of an attraction for the "old ways". I think that people crave that sometimes. It sort of draws us in to the light. To that which is familiar to us and speaks to our soul. Maybe to memories that are locked inside of all of us and are with us from the day we are born. I'm not Wiccan but there are aspects of it that speak to me.
very touching,I love to hear the beliefs of the Old Ways,I am of Cherokee and Irish,I follow my Cherokee Roots,but I also love my Irish Blood also,but do not know a whole lot of the Old Belives,which to me are first.so called humans made Religions,because of the not understanding of something.
@dwolfspirit1 Oh then you might like some of my native American music and art videos I've made too. If you go to my channel and look up to the right you'll see 3 play lists. Click on the one that says peace and meditation vids. There are several in there that are Native American. All the Alice Gomez ones and other N.A. ones there too. Lots of wolf art I bet you'll like. Enjoy. (;
@dwolfspirit1 The Old Believes of Pagan and Wiccan are not " man made religions". Try to research why the Druids were chased and killed and why the witches were chased and killed from the inquisition. You will be amazed .
@ruellan2003 So, is "the last of the druid priests" and proud title you decide to share with people where ever you go or a claim to attention? Just curious. Was trying to wrap my head around a reason that someone would advertise that to the world, couldn't find a good one.
@ruellan2003 hello brothers and sisters, i wish to let you know that you are not alone, there are still some that walk the path of learning along side you even if we do not have a clan.
@biggmoshjosh I love LM so much too. But some of her music I've tried to up load in here YT mutes the sound on. Its confusing. Some songs they let in and some they don't. I'd probably make vid montages out of every one of her songs but I'm afraid I'll spend the time making it only to find out it's not accepted on YT. (sigh)
I had the same prob with uploading music dont know what they will allow. upload the song first and if they allow it make the vid cause i would love to see and hear more :)
Thanks for your feed back Amq. I am so happy you like the Celtic music because I'm very hooked on it myself and will be making more vids using Celtic music. Its just amazing. I never seem to get enough of it.
titles just incantation, great album but i dont believe this has anything to do with "Dark Driuds" lol
