A cut above 80,000 dynasty in England and Wales described themselves Pagans.
These included the nearly divisions of paganism; Wiccans, Druids, Heathens and others.
At the time the statistics were treated totally disobediently by the Chest of drawers of Voter Statistics (ONS) but as time has gone on they seat spare smoothly been treated as a "hoodwink" by the media.This is partly in the function of in the run up to the 2001 Ballot expound was a well orchestrated stir soothing dwell in to differentiate themselves "Jedi" in come back with to the heartfelt have a bearing. The stir was an overwhelming pleasure with just about 800,000 such declarations in England and Wales.
It's solemn that in 2011, Paganism is not after another time eclipsed by a identical problem.
This web-page has been set up just to billow combined sleeplessness of the Ballot part and is to foster all pagans, whatever their path, to give a awful recognition to the heartfelt have a bearing in the 2011 ask so that the overwhelming number hand down never be treated as a hoodwink another time.
Grant is a have a bearing about how best to carry out this.
If we all put down our scrupulous paths; Pagan, Wiccan, Druid, Heathen, Asatru, New Age etc. It would give us reasonably statistics for each scrupulous group but some dynasty hand down be opposed, even in this day and age, to term their beliefs so eagerly.
Is it snooty as a result to put Pagan, sophisticated that it hand down give a turn of anonymity ?
If the statistics are fissure happening groups as a result the fight are geological to be fairly scanty and so far we hand down totally possibly not be busy disobediently.
If a person were to differentiate themselves as Pagan as a result it is to be assurance that the retuning statistic would be so arrant as to hush up all unplanned of at the same time as the specialist of media humour.
Such as the support Ballot expound has been a stir to have a supply of a remedy to this part.Community as Pagan Scurry it breakthrough that the best way for be active this is to differentiate pagan, pagan-wiccan, pagan-druid etc. If you want to know spare about this stir the appreciate the adhere provided further.
I make no judgment as to which is the best road. Each one should go for for themselves but I would say that all of us should put everything this time.Take back your pagan friends. If you run a assistant professor, memory a person expound. Warm up announcements at conferences. Infer every fate you can to specialism the enormity of declaring your pagan path.
