nevermore901: I’ve been a practicing atheist most of my life but maybe if, as a young person, I had been introduced to the feminine aspect of of the divine I might have been more interested in spirituality. Now I find myself on the cusp of middle age seeking a spiritual path. I invited a divinity student into my coven of dominant women and together we wrote a liturgy. Our coven started meeting once a month to practice our new religion. Of course we felt silly at first but we persisted. When we meet we sing, we chant, and we dance in a circle. It’s starting to feel more natural. I have always believed that the world might be a better place if we dethroned our “father god” and replaced him with a Goddess. We started the practice as way to empower us as dominant women. Our males are not allowed to attend our service. Of course we had to include them in some way but I won’t tell you about ritually whipping a man at the end of our service in what we call the Sacrifice. I know you don’t want to hear about that. -- source link
