To many Pagans, their beliefs are more than a religion; they are a way of life, seeking to live in sympathy with nature in today's modern world. Many pagans see themselves as very much a part of nature, not above it. Pagans also advocate self-responsibility; we are responsible for our actions. Due to persecution and misrepresentation it is necessary to define what Pagans are not as well as what they are. Pagans are not sexual deviants, do not worship the devil (are not Satanists), are not evil …

Lesbian, gay, trans, bi or just plain old-fashioned queer, you are all welcome :)
