•    What Kind of Pagan Are You?   

    Sometimes you find something on the net that looks like it might be helpful to someone else.  I was wandering around, I think in facebook, and I happened upon an interesting little quiz entitled “What kind of a pagan are you?

    Thinking this was a bit silly, especially since I know what kind of Pagan I am, I decided to try it out and see what I thought of it anyway.  I actually had to consider some of the questions.  They weren’t all the  ”no-brainer”s  I had expected they would be.  I was even (cough, cough) a little impressed.  But I still didn’t expect anything resembling a real outcome.  These things are always a bit…off…right?

    I finished the quiz and waited for my results.  It was actually rather accurate.  It pegged me as an eclectic Pagan with shamanic leanings.  Umm…guilty as charged.  That’s part of why I can be a minister in a non-sectarian, non-creedal inter-faith Pagan church.  I’m not convinced I have the One True Way for every Pagan out there.  I have my One True Way, which is under constant development and revision as I learn more and experience more.  But my Way is probably not quite your One True Way, even if we seem to agree on everything in principle.  Every person, and every person’s experiences, are different, even though they may be in the same place at the same time and perceive the same thing.  If nothing else, their perspective (literally) will be different, so they can’t actually see the same thing.

    But, back to the quiz.  I’ve posted the link here so you can play with it if you want to.  You may not agree with the results, but it does give you a new way of looking at your beliefs, and, perhaps, a window into how other people see those beliefs.  I do advise you to think very carefully before you change anything about yourself in response to how the quiz “pegs” you.  Only you can judge what your One True Way is supposed to be and how you are supposed to express it to be true to your spiritual purpose.

    If nothing else, this quiz will give you an opportunity to be One with the Divine in the gift of laughter.
