The Pagan Heart
|
Index of Diversified Paths Night is incomprehensible if day has never dawned. Evil is all there is if good has never been experienced. So too with our faith - to understand what we believe, how we believe and why we believe, we cannot constrain ourselves to following the narrow trail of one religion without ever glancing aside. Context gives meaning and value to everything. Comparative religion involves 'un-isolating' your faith by studying other beliefs. It provides a way to understand the communality of faith, to focus upon the similarities between us all rather than the differences. And that helps diminish fear and distrust. I am a great believer in reducing such negative and harmful emotions, which is why I support religious study through comparison. That is the purpose of Diversified Paths - to share knowledge about the different paths taken by members of the Pagan community.
