WHO WE ARE?

The Void Collective is my own attempt at an unorthodox/alt religious space. I want to make a space where people can discuss the taboo sides of religion/spirituality and not have it downvoted into oblivion because someone disagrees. There is also a Revolt server in progress.

Rules

  1. Maintain a drama-free environment. I am running this in my spare time, I'd like to not have to clean the gutters every time someone's "polite debate" turns into an overflowing toilet.

  1. Show respect and refrain from personal attacks on fellow members. If you disagree, then move on; I will not tolerate belief bashing.

  1. Prohibit spam, proselytizing, and advertising within the community. Pretty self-explanatory, but here's further explanation: No white-knighting for your religion in particular, no telling others that their faith is wrong, no hellfire and brimstone.

  1. Avoid spreading misinformation; stay within your expertise to foster a positive atmosphere, no lying for your beliefs.

  1. Admin decisions are conclusive; complaints can be submitted for review, and a decision will be reached after careful consideration.

  1. The Admin reserves the right to modify rules as needed at any time.

As the moderator of what I hope will become a very interesting discussion space, fingers crossed I would like to give a small introduction of Me and my beliefs.

I'm going to be going by the name Doc. Zephyr here to avoid bs.

I am a polytheist, magick practitioner, and folk witch that hails from the hills of Tennessee. I grew up southern baptist, and then Evangelical, before finally getting my first taste of what non-Christian spirituality had to offer. Like many of you, this came about due to me discovering my sexuality and The Church were in hard disagreement, among many, many, many other things that would take far more lines to list than this.

My current timeline for this journey of self-discovery is as follows:

At 15, it became painfully obvious that I was on the outs at my Church. I'd prayed many a time, but it seemed my prayers fell on deaf ears. From then on it was a variable will they, won't they of cat and mouse, religion hopping, and brief madness till I finally settled on my current bid, which is a sort-of Gnostic, Catholic, Eclectic Pagan free for all.

I think I'll end this here, for now. I'll add a link to the Revolt server once it's more polished.

Peace out!
