Why I Went Back

[poliphilo]

I didn't go back to church for God. Or not exactly. I went back for the people.

God... people....maybe it comes to much the same thing. Anyway, the fact is I didn't have enough people in my life .

People are God in his/her most challenging manifestation.

I'd been limiting my contact with people after the Wicca experience. That hadn't ended well- and along the way there had been lots of hurt- given and received.

I don't apologize for sitting in my cave for a while. It was the right thing to do at the time.

But this is the right thing to do now.

I know exactly what you mean. I wouldn't want to be knocking around with evangelicals either. But St. Paul's is a mainstream Anglican church (no hellfire preaching, no puritanism, no "personal Jesus"), the people are a friendly bunch- and if there's any bigotry around I haven't stumbled across it yet.
