I was always taught that a true Neo-pagan is polytheistic, monotheistic, agnostic, and atheist, all rolled up into one paradoxical package. More often than not I have found this to be the case. What do you think guys?

That's a very interesting way to look at it :) I would have to say yes, I think you are right. These qualities do seem to pertain to every aspect of Wiccan life. I do not however think that there is a way to be a good Neo-Pagan or a bad one. Maybe this isn't what you meant, but let me explain. I feel this way because there is no one set of rules for the religion. It's very basis is the idea that there are no absolutes. If there were someone with a belief in the God and Goddess but did not think of them two supreme being rolled into one, they are still "Good Pagans", do you see my meaning?

Of course you're right, although I was saying it more sort of tongue-in-cheek... :-)
