another Pagan.
the only time I judge someone for their religion is if they think they have a right to treat you badly because you don't share it.
this world needs to learn a little respect.
when Christianity first came to the british isles, the native Pagans just accepted it as yet another religion followed by yet another group of incomers, and accepted that different people practice different things.
a sad contrast to the crusades, for example, where people thought it was okay to go into someone elses country, and kill them for having the religion of that country, rather than Christianity.

I guess any religion with the concept "This is the ONLY true religion" concept has the same problem. Most mainstream religions today fall into this category, sadly.
I have a few pagan friends and they amaze me with their tolerance and knowledge about other faiths. Of course another thing they amaze me with is their practical knowledge of the esoteric... one can almost read my mind over the net!

well the spiritual parts of the mind are like a muscle. if you exercise it regularly it becomes stronger.
most Pagans tend to have a practical aspect to their religion, with meditations, practices, divinations. all working to improve the skills of that part of us that is more than physical.
so ability tends to be more developed in those that work at that ability.

Iam a Hindu as we are known to the world because There is nothing called Hindu or Hinduism.we are followers of ancient prescribed way of life which is known as Sanathana Dharma.Like all othere religions this also got corrupted in course of time and many regional and local customs got inducted in the name of religion.In original pureform it accepts all living things as belonging to one family known as "Vasudeva kutumbakam" It only advocates how man should live and let live to be happy so that world will be in peace which is called
"Om Shanti Shanti Shanti hi"

I am Christian or trying hard to be. No I don't judge others or try not anyways. If I judge I try to make it a judgment of spirit only. I try not to lay any stumbling blocks before my brothers in the world or out of the world.
