	A Pagan Sojourn
		In one my classes, it was mentioned that this is the first time in history that we are able to learn about, read about, and/or practice any religion or set of spiritual beliefs that we want without fear of being persecuted.
		I think we do – but only if we are willing to deal with the stigma and intolerance of others who will their beliefs on others who doesn’t believe the same as they do.
		I think the "why" part of that kind of discussion would almost be more enlightening because people would have to support the reason for their beliefs and have to think about their religion on a deeper level.
