I was never never baptized, although my parents did go to church, or once did before they were married. They never talked about church, or God.. or any of their beliefs, leaving me to fend on my own in a community with strong Christian beliefs. They don't ask questions about what I believe, although I do strongly believe that my mother is part Wiccan... she won't fess up to me as of yet.

My friends constantly asked me to go to their Youth Group, getting me to meet their pastor... etc. They got me a bible, and said prayers for me, but I was still lost. I was talking with my best friend one day and she mentioned Wicca, a religion with different beliefs from Christians. So, with the help of the internet, I met people that study the religion, and found information on it. Now, I have been Wiccan for almost a year, and am proud to say it. Although I can not walk around high and proud for what i believe because in my town, it'd be like the Salem Witch Trials again... we even have a town square with a gazebo almost like the gallows.
