Hello to everyone. I was quite pleased to find this website and board today, I had never heard of it before. I'm a married lady, no children (but 4 pets), living in Boise. My husband and I own a small business in which metaphysical items are part of our trade. We are both practicing Pagans, though not identical (which two are?). I call myself an anarchist Pagan because I haven't run across anyone who thinks quite like I do, but that's the beauty of it. We have a good Pagan community here, though it could be more cohesive. As my husband says, getting Pagans organized is like herding cats. I also work as a Pharmacy Technician. We're a bit older (almost 50) but we are part of the local Goth scene... kind of the Goth parents. We have many younger friends whom we fret over as if we really were their parents. Our lives are rich and full and I love every minute of it.

We all try to come up with a world view that gives us what we want, assurance, comfort, power, and so on. I am writing this in respect. I, however, don't think that it is possiable to be both an anarchist while a deist of any sort, Christian or Pagan.
I say this because all gods and goddesses are authority, they are power, government power. Back in the day, the gods and goddesses required blood sacrifice, both animal and human. The Jesus story is just another story of human sacrifice. This all done in the name of authority. All gods and goddesses are called "Lord" and "Master". They are all portrayed as being royalty. They are associated with government authority. Infact it is said that all authority and government comes from God ( gods ).
Also, I am absolutely convinced that witches cannot heal. They can cast spells, and go into trance states, but in no way shape or form can any witch heal. Yet I do beleive in a spirit world, and that a long time ago there were people who could heal. Not any more.
I should know as I've tried to get healing before, only to be pushed down and messed with time and time again, from pagans, so called shamans, and christians. I am convinced that the civilized cannot heal, they can only make things sick.
I am a sepulture. I've been told this by witches before. So I know that I have a psycic parasite. I also know that it is the will of all gods and goddesses including Jesus Christ, that I be unhealed. This is because I am just food for this psycic parasite, and it is higher on the hiearchy than I am.
That said, I should say that I am a titanist. I love Tiamat and Apzu, and they are TWO, not one. I do not woship them because they are good and chaotic and such human authority ways are alien to them. I do not subscribe to any form of singularity principle. I obstain from human ways as much as I can, including human creeds.
I am celebate, and have not had sex in over 18 years. I think that self control is a very good thing, and that it should be acceptable for people to never have sex during the entire duration of their lives, if they so choose, or life chooses this for them. It was once this way, no longer. And people worry about the population bomb. We can partially thank social progress for this mess.
