Baptist. Southern Missionary Baptist at that. Grandma was a Hedge Witch but she'd deny that in a heartbeat to the preacher down the street!

In my early 20's Assemblies of God. I was in the Jimmy Swaggart crowd and was even taking courses to be a minister. It seemed like Sunday services were a contest to see which guy could wear the best suite, which woman could dress "conservatively sexy" and who could get a dose of the "Holy Ghost" quickest.

I got older, went through a lot of sadness and darkness in my life, and became a seeker. I studied several religions and settled with Taoism for a long time. Ever looking, I began exploring Native American beliefs. It was about that time that I realized that all religions basically said the same thing and all had the same basic flaws. I fell back to my Grandma's secret roots and teachings and settled with Wicca over ten years ago. I have felt peace and rest ever since.
