Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Most left-wing people who find themselves incompatible with whatever religion they were raised as just become atheists. To become a pagan, you would need that incompatibility but also have a need for spirituality, and you would need to find a pagan tradition you could take more seriously than some other established religious tradition, and you would need to feel that you weren't appropriating that tradition.
