I have had discussions - both on and offline - in regards to a crisis of faith within Wicca.

In my experience, it very much relates to what you believed as you grew up. One who was raised a Christian, but follows another path in adulthood may tend to "fear hell" - whereas someone raised as an athiest or agnostic will more "fear delusion."

What are your experiences? And how do you deal with them?

I am lucky because I never had a faith pushed upon me as a child. My parents let me make the choice. I think that what a person needs to do is search their soul for the right path to follow. I find that meditation works well for this purpose. There will be no foolproof answer for everyone. It depends on each individual, but I always recommend research first and foremost.

I hope this helps. Blessed Be.
