Ray, the PaganBear

I'm a gay, pagan, enemy of fundamentalist theism, who spent two and a half years in a Christian cult of extreme studies, and I know of what I speak... I have learned a lot of dangerous and wicked stuff and I'm here to share as much of it as I can.

These videos are supplements to the website I am working on, "The Stumbling Block" (http://www.thestumblingblock.com) where I blog, write, and talk about these issues.

My goal is not to destroy religion, but to help get it back on track. I believe Christianity's purpose was to bring freedom to people, not to impose religion onto them and instill obedience to the system. It's not anarchy... if anything, the tribal peoples of the world would insist WE live in anarchy WITH our rulers and government, because we can't stop killing ourselves and them.

I'm also a fan of Daniel Quinn's work, author of Ishmael. I hope my own book, when published (also called The Stumbling Block) will be as effective and as widely received.
