The great Creator , we are because of him!
Mother Earth, we sprang from her loins!
All others are lesser gods , not unimportant, but not formost.
If we thank and do justice by these two gods, we honor the remainder.

I support the separation of church and hate!
IMAGINATION - the freest and largest nation in the world!
One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others.
Am fear nach gleidh na h–airm san t–sith, cha bhi iad aige ’n am a’ chogaidh. He that keeps not his arms in time of peace will have none in time of war.

I believe, ultimately in one polynomial, multifaceted diety. Both God and Goddess, protector and destroier. Omnipotent, and maintaining a cosmic balance of perspective. All names by which a diety has been called, and every persona ever depicted, I see as another facet of the same spiritual entity. As for specific facets of the devine with which I can relate, I can list some:
Brighid, Rhiannon, The Christian Trinity (perticularly the teachings of Christ), The mother goddess
As my research expands, I feel sure there will be more personages to which I will be able to relate. As yet I have not studied very many religons, as facinated as I am with the subject.
