What is your personal definition of evil?
by fedorE inhow do you see evil in general?
recently a book i came across people of the lie by a well known psychologist m. scott peck discussed evil and evil in some of his patients.
to him any harm whatsoever inflicted on another person is evil and a mental illness that can be cured.

Makes sense Big D, I guess I've got a little bit of an anthropological leaning as well. So, the human portion of it is deeply interesting. I think you are doing the right thing by making the effort to educate yourself. Much better than running away from all of it like I did

Way too many to list, but the biggest offenders were:
"Super Charger Heaven" - White Zombie
"Psalm 69" - Ministry
And the extensive AC/DC collection I had

Let's not confuse "pagan based spritual interest" with Wicca which is a religion. I claim no religion and have absolutely no interest in belonging to one ever again. I do consider myself spritual though, and despite what the JW's have programmed us with there is a difference between the two.
BigD, Don't study religions, study the different paths humans take to find their answers. Religion itself is too categorical and studying the religion won't reflect the diverse beliefs of the followers.

Are you a CRACKED POT?
by Terry inare you a cracked pot?.
that may be the best indication of why you have/don't have the urge to worship!.
worship is man's natural reaction to god...if...god has made him a certain way.. otherwise, the man who experiences no reaction to god (or a negative one) is a vessal made for destruction.. in romans 9 paul goes on an on about god being like a potter who makes some pots that aren't worth keeping and other pots that are worth using.. we are one pot or the other!.

I'd be interested to hear how the other pagan folks arrived at this path. I haven't pursued anything extensively, but as stated before I have a lot of curiousity/interest in the subject.
Paganism is one of the few religious or spiritual orientations that I'm still willing to consider. Christianity is of absolutely no interest to me. Satanism requires a certain amount of christian belief so that's generally out. So, that has left me with Eastern thought (taoism, buddhism, shinto, hunduism, etc) and paganism.
I'm particularly drawn to Green Witchcraft and similar as they focus on the solitary practitioner and require no commitment to a religious group or coven. The disadvantage of solitary is that you don't have a practicing group to learn from. Though I have found some interesting classes recently that don't have any affiliation with any particular group and I can pick and chose based on schedule and or content. For example, I took a healing stones 101 type class last weekend at a local shop.
So, I'd love to hear from the rest of you as to what your leanings are and how you have chosen to educate yourself.
