This is exactly what I am trying to get across you have said it so much better thank you.

When you talk about religion they all came from the middle east Judaism,Christianity and Islam.As the prophets and messengers came and went the people of the time who believed followed that prophet or messenger and so we have the three main religions of today . They are all considered people of the book and all of mankind does have the freewill to choose his or her path and as long as you aren/t lying to yoursself or your children they will hopefully find the true one for them. Religion is not for everyone but try not to stray from being humane too much off the beaten path as that is why our children are being less obedient and starting to think that they are the boss and sadly our prisons and youth detention centres are full. So find what is right not what you think is easy or you don't have to do anything we are shaping the children of the future after all. So good luck to all you parents out there and happy parenting.

Not all religions came from the middle east. Look at the authors religion! Shes a pagan. And paganism is a religion as much as any. And it didn't come from the middle east. Paganism started all over the world, in many different forms. From Wiccans, celt, druids, shamans, witch doctors. It is the longest religion in the world, its started alot earlier than any other. And its been proved.

Could you please define pagan and yes it did come from the holy land because the origin of the word is arabic because what did they call anyone who didn't believe in god. They called them transgressors,pagans and disbelievers.

     PAGANISM        The origin of the word Pagan came from the Latin word Paganus, Which means country dweller. When cities were Christianized the people in the country continued to practice the old religions. The word Pagan soon took on the meaning "Those folks out there in the sticks who still do all that old fashioned stuff". Later it came to mean any member of an indigenous folk or tribal religion or anyone who was not "of the Book" (i.e., the Koran, Bible, Torah). Pagan religions originated in a time when people lived close to the land. Pagan theologies reflect an awareness of nature with its cycles of the seasons, as well as the cycles and seasons of human life. Such awareness is a common thread among Pagans today. Few modern Pagans can fully know or follow how our ancestors worshiped. Instead we invent and reinvent our religious practices, and even our beliefs, as we determine how they resonate with our contemporary lives. Some people prefer to use the word "Neopagan" to describe this form of modern Paganism. Some Pagans believe in the Goddesses and Gods of the old religions and others do not. Many Pagans understand deity as immanent, in everything, and believe revelation is found in nature instead of written in scriptures. Some believe in an afterlife and that their actions in this life will determine their place in the next. Others believe only in this Life and that their actions here are all that matters. Still, others believe in reincarnation. Some Pagans believe in an active Spirit World while others do not. Because Paganism is a non-creedal religion such divergent beliefs can exist together under one religious name -- just like in Unitarian Universalism!   Paganism is a spiritual way of life which has its roots in the ancient nature religions of the world. It is principally rooted in the old religions of Europe, though some adherents also find great worth in the indigenous beliefs of other countries. Such belief in the sacredness of all things can be found world-wide. Pagans see this as their heritage, and retain the beliefs and values of their ancestors in forms adapted to suit modern life. We celebrate the sanctity of Nature, revering the Divine in all things; the vast, unknowable spirit that runs through the universe, both seen and unseen.        What is Paganism?      Paganism is not new or unusual in our modern life. For many people it exists more as an active religion than other religions of our popular culture. Halloween Costumes and Treats, Christmas Trees and Mistletoe, Easter Bunnies and Eggs, Maypole Dances and Harvests, plus hundreds of other folk ways are Pagan practices. Modern-day Pagans seek to restore the religious context of these practices.   Merry meet, and Merry part and Merry meet again.   "Great Goddess, Lady of the Earth, Mother to us all. I welcome you to this place of power and offer thanks to you for what you have given me. I am a priestess of your path and I see with your eyes. You guide me in the lessons I must learn."         Blessed Be
