Lately, I've been having this argument with myself. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused012.gif)


When I do my rituals, there's a nagging part of me that thinks "This is silly ... this is stupid ... this is nothing more than superstition ... Yadda, yadda, yadda."

The magick is real (I have seen it manifest many times.) I can't help but wonder, though, if the gods we worship are nothing more than figments of our imagination?




This has been weighing on my mind for some time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Even if the Gods you worship were figments of your imagination would that make the impact of their power any less real? Or simply point out the power of imagination? You said it yourself you've seen the magick they can bring. Just because science and right rational thought deny such superstitions does not mean that they cannot have a deeply profound, life altering impact on those who seriously harness them. Weather or not the Gods you worship are real, the affect they have on you is. That statement alone should be enough to give you eternal faith in all that you do, religiously or other.
