Why am I wrong when I feel so right? Why am I a “Devil worshiper” when I do not believe there is a Devil? Why do I have to hide my religion when others shove their religion down our throats? I am a pagan and I am proud to be one. My religion fits my beliefs instead of what the majority believes. I build my beliefs based on my experience instead of what I read in a book. Why then do the other religions look down on my ways of life? I would never sacrifice an animal or harm another person yet people act as if they watched me slaughter a goat right in front of them. I   believe in Karma so if I do harm a person I will get what I deserve. So now even though I watch to make sure I am good karmatically people still hold their fingers like a cross and hiss at me. I am not vampire or what people think witches are. I am me, a pagan, a person, so you better take me or leave me the way I am.
