Hahaha, Pagans don't think that everyone else is wrong. A lot of Pagans think that everyone is right. Pagans don't recruit.
Some pagans believe in a God and a Goddess. Some only believe in a Goddess, which is as unbalanced as just believing in a God.
Then their are some like me, that don't believe in a God/Goddess as an actual being (which doesn't mean I don't ever use them in this form, for ritual), but only believe in what I can best describe as a source of energy, with a balance of masculine and feminine energy.
Good post!

I agree with you about Religions being more about money and
power... but I don't agree with that train of thought about atheist being better because they practice what they preach.
Does anyone, religious or not, practice what they preach? I know that in terms of religion, hypocrosies stand out more.
But, don't we all (atheists included) one day preach to our children - "do not lie, do not kill, do not betray, do not drink, to not smoke, do not discriminate people, etc"? We ground them for the bad things they do and tell them how bad they've been.
Don't you think most children sooner or later realize that we're not practicing what we preached? 
But I understood what you were trying to say... I just felt like disagreeing with you for once 
Interesting post Afzal.

That's all I'm gonna say about that.
Keep at it afzal, I see you're up to the R's and it's the end of summer. You may reach the W's by October which is cool since my birthday's in October.
