Goddess forgive me. I have strayed for far too long. I know I should be true to my heart, and my beliefs. However, sixteen months ago I began to lie about myself to others. I put on a masque to please everyone but myself. My beloved hated it as much as I did and he encouraged em to sign up here when a friend mentioned it on facebook. This is my secret. For the past sixteen months, my christian fiance and I have pretended to his church that I am a christian. You see, for over a year they had told him he cannot love both a Witch and God. The members of his congregation kept giving him looks of pity, which he ignored and told me to do as well. After our darling son was born, they gave that look to him and my infant son. So in front of the entire congregation, I accepted God. Again. For probably the fifth time in my entire life. You see, I feel that all male gods are aspects of the same god and that also applies to godesses. By that logic, their god put me on my path when I was 12. They do not see it as such, they view me as evil. So I became someone I am not. Members of the congregation are on my facebook page so I cannot post about Sabbats or Esbats or Rituals or anything really. I come here to be myself, and be true to my heart. And for everyone else, be true to your heart.

As a brother in the Craft, and one whom has had to do the same thing for most of my childhood AND adult life, I can say that sometimes it is best to truly understand the scriptures of the Christians and that hypocrisy works both ways. Judge NOT lest ye be judged. Go into your closet and pray and be not like the heathens whom pray outwardly and inside are ravenous wolves. I believe in you, and the strength of character that your Beloved has to stick by you through this. It is not easy.1 point
