Question by Terry: Do you think you’re an urban Pagan?
I appreciate all additions to the list as well as answering the question. Now, here’s parameters for an urban Pagan so you can judge whether you are, or not.
1. If your incense sets off your smoke alarm.
2. If the Punk band renting downstairs complains about your drumming.
3. If you glance at open trashcans for thrown away Ouija boards you can recycle.
4. If your alter base flushes at weird and uncomfortable moments.
5. If your familiar leaves rats, cockroaches, and an occaisonal pigeon or canary on the alter.
6. If the little old lady in the park with all the pinned and necklace crosses on her, stares at your belly button when you say Howdy.
7. If the old guy next door that sits out on his stoop asks you if your summoning the devil, when you’re chalking a hop-scotch pattern.
8. If your sacred tree is a six inch Bonsai.
9. If someone asks you if you’ve “been saved” at least twice a week.
10. If someone on the bus sees you reading “Spiral Dance” and says,”Is that something like Line Dancing?”
11. If you’re addicted to the Bingo games at the Catholic church three blocks away.
12. IF the recycling guy won’t take your glasses unless the candles are burned all the way down.
13. If you decided to go skyclad on the roof for some midsummer rituals and caused a near catastrophe amongst 3 police and 7 television helicopters.
14. If you see a cockroach crossing your Altar, and whack it mightily by instinct, before you can even think.
It’s Friday…..enjoy.

Jim the Fee, here!
From all of your parameter statements, I am not sure that I
know what a Pagan is. The serious Pagan would say that you don’t really know about Pagans and Pagan ritual with these “trite” bits of humor. I confess that I am very ignorant
about the whole idea of “Paganism”; but, I would tend to agree that your list appears to be borrowed from a Jeff
Foxworthy litany about “a Redneck”
Comeon Terry, tell us what you know about Pagan’s both
original and modern in five sentences or less.
That is a guantlet in the face, CHALLENGE! Bub!!
ROFL
Ha ha, made me laugh for the day!
Ohhh, this was good! No, I don’t think I’m an urban Pagan…LOL! I’d have to say I’m a regular Pagan, Terry, but this was great! 🙂
Terry, i am one off the lucky ones. I live near a wood, very secluded what more can a witch want?
