Hello Serenity and whoever will read this,
I am in search of a spiritual path for me and I came across paganism. I have read a lot about other religions, did some tests online to guide me on my search and think that paganism correspond me the most. I still have plenty to discover about it but I have a question. Is paganism compatible with science, I mean natural sciences like how the world began etc? Or are some people against the fact that the earth was created by a big bang of some sort? thank you very much for your help

Most pagans, including myself, include science in their belief system. It is mostly an individual choice on what you decide to believe. For example, most pagans believe in the circle of life, that many animals are affected by other species and that they are all important. Science actually supports this theory. I hope I have helped you.
Blessed Be, wikedwitch80

Hi,
I agree with wikedwitch80. I myself do believe in the theory of evolution and all that.
As far as I know, most (I want to say all but I don't want to be so bold) pagans do.
We have several beautiful creation myths but most of us do believe that they are in fact myths. Pretty stories to symbolize a reality but we don't take any of it as facts.
I believe that being just humans here on earth we try to associate the divine with imagery that we can relate to and understand. That's why we assume that all religions lead to the same divine principal.
I hope I helped.
May you find the beliefs that better speak to you heart!
Blessings, Aine

Thank you very much wickedwitch80 and AinePandora. It really helps as I am studying natural science at the moment and did not know if the spiritual world and evolution were compatible !
Blessed be
