Michael Heath and the Christian Civic League do not share my opinion. Lately, Heath and his organization seem to be involved in a smear campaign against Moran and the Maine pagan community. Pagans have been featured more and more often on their hate-mongering Web site. It's more of the same vitriol and blatant misrepresentation that the League is so famous for spouting against the gay and lesbian community.
I was raised Baptist. I've read the Bible several times. I'm not sure Michael Heath has. He is one of the least Christ-like people I've ever had the good fortune not to meet face to face. From what I remember, Christ suffered so that others might live. He seems to live to make others suffer.

To be forgiven, you must repent. Repentance has two sides - turning away from sins, and turning toward God. We cant just say we believeand then live any way we want(Luke 3:7-8), and neither can we simply live a morally correct life without reference to God, because that alone cannot bring forgiveness from sin.
Determine to rid your life of any sins God points out, and put your trust in him alone to save you from sins consequences.
Homosexuality is sin. Pagan worship is sin. You cannot continue to embrace these sins and expect to be forgiven! report abuse
Better I think they put ALL of the religious books of the world in one huge pile and burn them all.
Religion, including paganism, has always been, and still is, the curse of mankind.
Why anybody thinks they need to read a book or go to a building to listen to a sermon in order to be a good person, I do not know.
It's time to believe in best science and to stop trying to explain what men's mental limits cannot possibly understand with mythical beliefs.
A belief that God created everything is an imbecilic explanation. I know not what a God is nor does anyone else and I find it novel that just a few years ago the religious believers of the day said there were 50 Gods.
