Well he's a smart guy then lol.
but I've known some Wiccans and they can be pretty out there individuals which makes me nervous about trying to establish relations with pagans

It was a generalization based on real cases. As I said genuine wiccans/pagans exist even if most of the time their tradition is no older than 200 years.
I responded in the context of this thread, where OP wondering if he should be a pagan just because he doesn't believe in Christian faith illustrates perfectly that "spiritual shopping" I was talking about.
A spiritual tradition/faith is something that takes an integral part of your life. You don't chose to become this or that on a hunch.
If you don't know where you philosophically stand the first thing to do is read more instead of throwing traditions around and see if they stick.

You're right you didn't insult me. You Totally dissed the OP calling her a parrot.
Personally it matters not to me what this person decides but I can sure feel that pure Christian love radiating from my computer screen from those that do have opinion on what she should do.
You guys hang yourselves with this love.
Yeah I want to belong to your club. NOT.

You have not studied paganism so let's not pretend you know any more than a glimmer obtained by your own emersion in pop culture.

Pretending pagans. Cool.
Perhaps we're just pretending we're not Christians.

Just the fact you think paganism is based solely in European culture tells me you have very limited knowledge.
