I will soon be in a place of greater responsibility in my religion, and one of the challenges that Wicca still faces is gaining legitimacy among other religious leaders. You don't have to agree with my beliefs to see me as a valid spiritual leader, and we can learn alot from each other. Alot of work has been done by some great and dedicated people in this aspect, but I just wanted to try to do my part to build some bridges between the various faiths out there.

And please, please, please, if you have something derogatory to say about my or any other religion, please start your own topic to do so. Don't poison this one with your hate. Thanks.
