About Myself

My name is Robert. But to all of my friends I am only referred to as Frapples. I am a 24 year old programming student. But much of my life is based around faith. I was raised Methodist. My father is a pastor for a Methodist church that I have attended for the majority of my life. But it has been some time since I have been a Christian.

I received a large education living with someone who is so devoted to God. But, at one point, we had just moved to a new city that seemed to flourish with many religions everywhere I went. Around the time that high school started I started to study other faiths. I realized that there were so many of them out there. I felt ignorant. I soon after started to almost obsessively study ancient history. With all of the history I was reading about the religions I decided that I wanted to know more about where they started and how they have flourished and changed over the centuries.

With all of the new evidence that I was surrounding myself in I discovered that I could no longer follow my father's faith. I could no longer believe in it. In ancient history I studied the cultures and traditions. And I read about so many people, in ancient history, that had so blindly placed their faith for such ludicrous reasons. I couldn't believe it. There were so many religions that had so many ties to one another and were based off of things that now may seem absolutely ridiculous.

But there was still one faith that fascinated me. And that was witchcraft. Witchcraft was never an organized religion founded by masses. It had ties and influences that went back as far as cromagnan history. The time of the cave man. It seemed so built around instinct and what felt right for the practitioner. There are no standards you must abide by. There is nothing that you 'have to' believe in in order to practice their art. It is pretty much built around a basis of having faith in faith. The rest of how you practice can be as simple as wanting something bad enough or performing some sort of ritual to represent what you want.

I thought that the faith was so beautiful that I tried to discover my faith through some of their ideals. And now I have a unique faith built around my experience and education that I feel could never be broken. If anyone is ever interested I would recommend to them that they try to find witches in there area and just let them talk. Just sort out what sounds possible with what you think is hogwash. Try it and you might just discover something about yourself and your life that you never thought could exist.
