I know there are a few atheists here, there is probably a few wiccan or other hellbound religious types here.
I would not join any group that would have me as a member ... (bg)
Any other lesbians trapped in mens' bodies here?
I am sure there are some heading to hell, yes.

Probably are, we've got just about everything else here. People usually don't discuss their beliefs except in the religious forum, so I can't really point to any specifically.
But, uh... they don't usually hang out on the Religion Forum, y'know? Just not that many Samhain threads, and all...
We did have a gay, Wiccan, anarchist, tree-hugger from Eugene, Oregon once, but he left for some reason. Good luck.
I've run into several conservative pagans on this board, but I'm not sure if they hang out in the religion section. THe religion section tends to be about 1/4 15th-century Calvinists, 1/2 Catholics, (1/4 mainline Catholics, 1/4 ultra-traditionalist Catholics) and 1/4 everyone else (including several excellent regular Anglican posters).
You could ask on the Undead Thread, where some really colorful epople hang out:

MadIvan may be Pagan; some Goths are.
Yes, I'm a pagan/wiccan, though not a very typical one, and increasingly a lip-service one. Too many pagans harbor knee-jerk opposition to any sort of efficient organization, and I find that pretty frustrating (though not as frustrating as the other end of the pagan spectrum: the Gardnerian wiccans, who insist that their demonstrably 1960s vintage rituals are actually of ancient origin, and must be followed to the letter or else -- that crowd has more in common with the "King James Bible is the literal and complete word of God" crowd, than either of those crowds likes to admit). I've run into at least half a dozen pagans here on FR -- can't recall their names though. Suspect they're all pretty atypical pagans too.
Well we have not had any Pagans speak up as yet, darn that would really make for good discussion.
I liked your idea for a thread on other Religeon types.
Btw are you a Pagan? Maybe if you are you can speak first. LOL My name is Oslandr and I am a Pagan.
And I was starting to believe I was the only one here!
See my profile page.
Asatru. Was a Garderian pagan there for about ten years. Too many "hug the Earth" liberal flakes for me to stomach. Needed something that spoke more to the Warrior in my blood.
What is your definition of a "pagan"?

I'll risk a ZOT and say you should keep a low profile. Anything other than some kind of orthodox Christian beliefs don't seem welcome on FR.
I hope that politics trumps religion on Free Republic,
but I'm new and maybe it will become more clear.
