Pagan Culture Never Died

[Hecate's]

Pagan culture never died. It changed, was hidden, became hushed -- but never died. We can look around and see that many of the Old ways are still part of everyday life. Here's a few examples. What others can you see in your own surroundings?

A personal favorite is the candle-magic ritual we do once a year, celebrating one's incarnation with the chant "Happy Birthday to you." A wish is made, the candles blown out and gifts given. This custom dates back to worship of Artemis, Greek Goddess of the Moon. On Her day, cakes were baked in the shape of a crescent moon and decorated with candles. If worshippers could blow out the candles in a single breath, the Goddess would look upon them with favor. Whether ancient Greek myth, or a modern-day spell, the way we celebrate our birthday is truly magic!<SPAN style="COLOR: black"><FONT face="Times New Roman">

Most of these so called "true christians" don't even realize their traditions come from US pagans.

If that is the way you are thinking, than maybe you should look into becoming a Jehovah Witness! They don't celebrate anything!

Speaking of which, I caught young master Jimmy Junior coming out of my horse barn last night. He was zipping up his pants and staggering off across my fields. Tell that halfwit to keep away from my Arabian Stallions. Those horses are worth more than you and all your ancestors ever had, and then some.

First you showed up here to evangelize for paganism, and now you're trying to get Brother Stewart to become a Joe Hovey's Wetness? I guess anything goes as long as it will carry more souls to your dark lord.

....worship of Artemis, Greek Goddess of the Moon.

I think you're full of shit (excuse my language pastors). Everyone knows that Artemis was the virgin goddess of the wild/hunt -- for both Greeks and Romans (rather the Roman equivalent, Diana). There are even myths of her changing into a stag.....Now why would a goddess of the moon transform into a stag? Makes more sense for a goddess of the hunt, huh? Sounds like someone's an idiot...

I do find it funny that this person is willing to go to Hell for a "religion" they can't even get right

Magical? About as magical as a faucet... it is always wise to keep an eye on the ways of Satan. God is a step ahead and He likes it if we are.

Y'all ready for Satan's barbecue, boy?
