Greetings again:
Merle asked:
"...charles does the pagan believe in spirituality and souls?...merle"
The answer for spirituality would depend on the definition but most of
those I know have some sort of Spiritual dimension in their lives and
practice, chanting, dance, trance and mind altering substances are
fairly common. Spirituality being one of those slippery words that has
almost as many definitions as people using it somewhat of a catch all
like "love" used for everything from sunsets to sex.
"Souls" has for many a rather unpleasant association with Xianity and I
left there a fair while ago. I would hazard a guess that many Pagans
hold some sort of belief in that concept but we are usually more
interested in doing than in philosophy. Personally I discount the
concept and aim on getting all I can out of this existence, letting my
loaned atoms do what they will after I finish this life.
