Pagan Organization

I found a pagan organization that offers a chance to carry out vocations related to pagan deities. It looks serious and sincere. I'm impressed with what I've seen so far. I'd like to do more research on them. If all seems okay, I might send them an exploratory e-mail this weekend. There's a long waiting period in any case, in order that the organization can establish the seriousness of the applicant. 

To avoid disappointment, it's best, I think, not to have expectations. All humans have flaws, and any organization, therefore, must have flaws as well. It's a law of life. You might not like their flaws; chances are, they won't like yours. Broad shoulders, a broad mind, and a broad heart are important.

I was talking to two Christians, recently. They explained to me that they don't believe in forgiveness for people convicted of murder. "But," I protested, to no avail, "forgiveness is a central point of Christianity, and Jesus talks about this over and over in the Gospels."

I'm going to try not to dispute them on this. They're doing their best. This is how it goes.
