And then of course, because there HAS to be a christian response to everything pagan condemning us to hell...

This sort of thing is getting so old and annoying to me. The more I learn, the more ignorance I see...it's enough to give someone a permanent headache! How can we ever get along when we get attacked for trying to get along? ::sighs::

It's a noble cause. No one ever said it was easy, and frankly it isn't. The more knowledge you gain, and the more experience you have, you'll get tough skin. You'll realize that these "Christian" Responses are frankly not very Christian at all. I know a lot about many different religions, and I think as Wiccans, there should be no other way than that. We need to learn about other religions not just from a practical point of view, so we can better relate to others, but also so we can see for ourselves how the Gods have appeared to humanity over time and in what regions. But from my understanding, in the time of Jesus, since Christianity at the time was a very grass-roots kind of development, Jesus had relationships with Pagan and Jewish alike. Christianity is a religion of salvation, not condemnation, and I think people are seeing it in the more negative light. These so-called Christians probably cannot name for you the four gospels, or the seven sacraments, and are taking the teachings of their founder to a dark place.

I wouldn't stress over it too much. It will happen, and will continue to happen. As long as you have faith, and you know what you believe, and you can be aware-respect-and appreciate their personal opinion, then there should be no problem. In my opinion, as long as you behave with morality and ethics, no one can say a damn thing to you. And rightfully so, because even some so-called Christians do not even behave with morality and ethics. Worship your Gods - In Perfect Love, and Perfect Trust, and behave appropriately and you'll be untouchable. Or as the Buddha said: "He whose mind does not flutter, by contact with worldly contingencies, sorrow less, stainless and secure.
This is the Supreme Blessing."

Many Blessings.

Yeah, and i really try not to let it bother me...and usually it doesn't. I think perhaps it's more bothersome because I'm seeing SO much of it lately. Anyway, thanks for your thoughts :)

WOW! That is a touching song! I feel your pain! It IS a rather frustrating and annoying thing to have to sit through!
I actually found the second link amusing...
The guy does have a badass guitar, and it's an upside down cross, too... ROFL ROFL
lol hadn't noticed that.
Yeah...but maybe if it was a bit smaller it wouldn't look quite so ridiculo...nah, it's still look stupid. lol
I didn't notice that either....LMAO! That is rich...as the wine he drank before this gig. :D
You know to REAL Christians have a nice belief - TURN THE OTHER CHEEK...

Just ignore ignorance... however if they are keen to learn share as much as you can, for only love and understanding will heal this world...
lol if i ever meet a real christian i will certainly do that ;)
Wow! I loved it!!! I listened, smiled to myself, and felt a tear form in my eye. What an awesome little song!
And....Dude! The Jesus guy.....his song sucks. He doesn't even know the words and stumbles. So the jist of it was...Jesus died for us, and we're going to hell. hmmmmmm....him first. I am not going. That is such a nasty thing to do. I say take the spiritual blinders off and look around Jesus dude. Someone told a lie a long time ago...and we are still demonized. I could go on and on, but what good will it do. None. I wish they believed in "harm none."
