You Scored as Ecclectic Pagan

A veritable blend of all the pantheons and perhaps a dash of a few
other religions as well, you're the versatile Eclectic Pagan. You have
no problem wearing an ankh while setting an offering to Herne on your
alter just below your image of Hera. You don't believe in coloring
within the lines, and are a bright free-thinker. While you respect the
views of your fellow pagans, as far as you're concerned, religion is
the sky, and there's no one about to clip your wings with lines and
limitations.

What a person says they believe, what they
believe they believe, are not necessarily
what they truly believe.

What their strongest beliefs really are.

Actions speak louder than words and reveal a
person's true beliefs.

Most people claiming to be devout Christians actually believe in
Physical Science.

When they get sick they do not go to their pastor or priest or
prayer circle, they go to see a medical doctor.

When Jesus clearly said and demonstrated that nothing but a belief
in him was necessary to heal anything (according to generally
accepted interpretations of the gospels).

A quizz like this is meaningless for the above reasons, and
the classifications are equally meaningless.

What matters is whether you know anything about magick. Not
what dimly understood religious affiliations strike your
fancy at the moment.

I'd have more confidence in a quiz from someone who knows how to spell
"altar".

You Scored as Shamanic Pagan
A shamanic pagan's roots are generally found in Native American faith.
A true love and respect for the earth and all that it yields is
central to their faith. Wisdom is most often found in spirit guides or
totems, who can be animals, ancestors, or spirits. Pagans who follow
this path tend to be far more aware of the delicate web that
interweaves the lives of every person and thus move within that web
accordingly. They're usually deeply insightful, friendly, loving
people and excellent friends and parents. Mysterious and strong, as
well, they are often the protectors of their friends and family as
well as the moral compass for their friends and loved ones.

Some badly worded questions. I am reminded of why I hate on one quiz
things. There is never a "I refuse to answer until you reword that
question!" button. Also, I add to zayton's criticism the point that
the phrase "a part" is written as the word "apart" at least twice that
I caught without trying. someone relies on their spellchecker too
much. Given that and other possible gripes, curious and interesting
results....

that wasn't a category)

You Scored as Eastern Pagan
Eastern Pagans come in two breeds; The Buddhist-Pagan, who follows the
Buddhist belief of the "middle way" and the Hindu-pagan, who leans to
the Hindu Pantheon of gods. Thoughtful, calm, insightful individuals
are often drawn to Eastern mythology and thought. Enlightenment is
more than a theory; it's a state of mind to aspire to, and there are
certain key elements that you've found in the Eastern paths that offer
to help you on the journey. Those who seek these paths are often the
teachers, the peacemakters and the intellectualists of our world.

You mean it is not scientific? (bg) Gosh and here I was ready to
change my life path by it. LOL

Good thing I already was set up for the Shaman/Celtic Pagan Path.

I hate quizzes too. Somewhat like court TV. Just answer the
question..yes no..degrees of. I needed a break from the gluten free,
vitamin, healthy foods research. Anything would do. Even the quiz.

I normally dont post here, but instead read most of the post, be it as
they may be amusing at best, especially the troll war between you and
Sid. however this is one time I'm actually going to post a response.

The biggest percentage of the topics in here have demonstrated to me a
complete and utter lack save a few posters of the understanding of the
practices of NeoPaganism/Paganism/Wicca rather instead, have displayed
a mockery of what the "Craft" practices truly are.

In the last 30 years of my "Craft" practices I have seen both the good
and the bad parts of the Neo-Pagan Movement rear it's head.

I initially started my spiritual practice in the Craft as an
Alexandrian Wiccan, having been raised in a coven tradition from the
age of 8 by my step-mother who was a head of an Alexandrian Coven in
California. However as the years went by and my own personal journey
progressed I began to develop a more personal relationship with myself
and my spirituality which led me to a more Ecclectic path.

I eventually found my own covenstead back in the 1980's and in 1994
began the Pagan's Rights Coalition/United Pagan Charities Cooperative
(PRC/UPCC) while working with The Licorice Unicorn Covens and the
Church of Mercahvah. Of course for most of you this was before the
internet was even the internet. After the death of Dr. Jeanne Re
Montandon who was the head of the LUC, I continued her work on my own
with the help of and the forming of The Guardians of the Blue Flame
Covenstead. This was round 1996. Here now it's 2009 and I'm looking
at most of this dribble with still a bit of distress.

In 2001 I joined the Southern Delta Church of Wicca (SDCW) which is
also an Aquarian Tabernacle Church (ATC) affiliate and was ordained at
this point as an ATC minister. Now anyone who has any true knowledge
of Wicca will realize that the ATC is one of the most recognized
Wiccan/Pagan churches around.

Well currently I'm still head of the Pagan's Rights Coalition, I still
work closely with other Pagan Rights and Pagan Covens, (utilizing the
term pagan here as a loose term), and I decided to take this test for
the Shits and Giggles aspect of it.

Well it turns out it describes my current path and practices pretty
accurately. I was described as a Shamanic Pagan.

Continue bashing each other because I love a good laugh.

Laughs on you. You could not resist being sucked into it either. Nor
would a _Rev_ be having a good laugh at it all. Could you come in
showing yourself to be more of an idiot sock?

And don't even get me started on how the ATC works it's rings and
inner levels. What some have done to get there and all the dirt that

Husband in my marriage was quite involved with it from conception into
years of service and tight inner ring.

Might as well be the Catholic Church with as much sexual deviation and
abuse of power.

Move along Rev.

And there you identify yourself as just another fathead elitist. The
neo-pagan world is full of clowns who look down their noses at everyone
else and claim to be the only ones who know 'what's really going on'.

The really funny thing about the whole situation is that the real
pagans (as in thousands of years ago) wouldn't recognize anything
any of you say or do, even if the words were translated perfectly
into their language.

Neo-paganism is a fictional psuedo-religious movement put together
by spoiled and self-indulgent fools who think they can just make up
reality as they go along.

Hey Ed. Happy to entertain you. I'm sure you can be entertaining
too, performing all those empty theatrical rituals based on
psuedo-magickal nonsense that accomplish nothing but giving
people the illusion that they are spiritually/magically advanced.

Drop by again. Popcorn is on the house.

Sid
