From my own experiences with Christianity for 30-31 years of my life, I strongly detest the overwhelming arrogance that so many, but not all, Christians flaunt in the world today. No one religion or faith is better then the others. No God or Goddess is better then the others. Monotheism is not the better faith system.
Look at the history of Egyptology. Monotheism ended very quickly the 18th Dynasty. King Tut could not revive all the trouble that his father did for everyone in Egypt. Polytheism does have it troubles also. With human beings, there will be fault in just about everything in life. Within the spiritual world, we must life out our faiths with peace, love, and harmony.
Sad to state that most, but not all, Christians do not show the true meaning of being a Christian. If Christians wants me to turn back to Christianity, a complete and total revamp of how things are done within it sphere of operations. For starters they can rightfully apply their own spiritual text, The Bible, or better yet not use it at all.
Throughout the Old Testament, there is too much hate. I mean a monotheism God that against freedom of choice in who they believe in is not love or freedom. That may be the underlining demise of any organized religion or faith. Too much control of the masses. Too many dos and don'ts in system. These does not mean that Wicca or Pagan faiths are chaotic, but their must be a balance of order with authority and tyranny.
Believe it or not, pagans are more moral then most Christians. What I believe that helps Wiccans and Pagans keep balance in their freedoms and morality is that they do not have a confessional means of dealing with their sins. They take up the responsibilities for themselves. It appears they understand the repercussions of their own actions. That is a strong sign of maturity.
Most, but no all, Christians do not take responsible actions for their sins. The confession of sin does nothing, other then remove the responsibilities from their own souls. No growing up is being administered. If people cannot be accountable for their actions, then chaos will rein. To have order one must have the freedom to take up the mantle of oneself and the consequences there of.
Polytheism is not just worshiping or having fellowship with multiple Gods or Goddesses. It is the splinters of all the aspects of "The All." In dealing with male and female, it shows recognition of the masculine and feminine of "The All." There is great order in polytheism then you might think. Categorizing the characteristics of "The All" is the major purpose of polytheism.
Right down to it, Wicca and Paganism is the calm after the storm of the complexity of Christianity. Wiccans and Pagans are allowed to follow a personal path of their new found faith while Christians are forced to walk the one that the pastor-teacher leads them on. Each person thinks differently. That means that they will have their own personal special unique path to live out their own spiritual life.
