    Hi i'am mathieu

    Hello,

    I came here by curiosity. I'am not really a beleiver but I feel religion might be good for me.

    I have few values, I want to find in a religion:
    * I beleive in freedom, people should have the right do to what they want as long as they d'ont hurt someone else. It includes homosexuality and drinking alcool.
    * respect of nature
    * work and creating is a positiv stuff
    * I don't beleive in universalim and the "no borders" "we are all the same" motto. the religion must not contradict patriotism or nationalism or impose immigration.
    * I don't beleive in anthropomorphic deity.


    Am I in the right place?

    Howdy, Mathieu.

    Is this the right place? Sure, if you want it to be.

    Welcome!

      thanks for your welcome.

      I was wondering if some of my values will be contradictory with the pagan faith?

        Welcome.

        "The pagan faith" is an umbrella term for a LOT of paths. so yes. it will to some, and not to others. The best way of finding out is studying the ones that catch your attention. Most of us, to some extend, forge our own paths.

            Maybe.

            Paganism is a rather large umbrella that contains a number of belief systems that don't always agree with each other. To avoid my flippant description, Paganism is less a religion and more an extended family of religions. Some might fit you beliefs, some might not..

            Applying your question to PF in specific rather than Paganism in general, the answer is still maybe. No forum is for well suited for everyone and not all who venture through PF choose to stay. Skim the boards, join and/or start conversation threads. You'll find out soon enough whether PF is a good fit for you.

            In the meantime, welcome aboard.

            Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

            "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

              Your religion is what you make of it. Paganism is full of different paths.

                        Again, "paganism" is an umbrella term, there isn't a "being a pagan 101" book. But you are on a forum with lots of informative discussions to read, have a look around here.

                          I get there isn't a sacred book like the bible or koran.
                          But isn't there a book/guide or call it as you want, who show the big lines?
                          I's an umbrella term but there is still a common beleif like the respect of nature.

                          I read the "newbie guide" here, I will take a look at different things.

                            Not to my knowledge no. And no, there isn't really that either, we don't all have shared beliefs. Pagan pretty much means "not one of the major religions".

                              What about the Book Of Shadows? Isn't that a pagan book?
