    I originally became a Pagan at the age of 18. With Paganism, you choose the god that fits you best. You don’t alter your moral compass to fit into a god’s ideals lie one would Christianity.

    I eventually found myself attracted to being a general Chaosist and specifically a Discordian

    What convinced me was reading the holy book Principia Discordia. It teaches that life is all about perspective of the individual and that what you see with your own eyes may not be what others see in theirs.

    I also see Chaos as the ultimate creation force because if everything was static and unmoving, we wouldn’t be here right now.

    I also had a near-death experience with Eris, where I saw here when I had a heart attack at 29 due to a genetic condition that I have.

    So there’s not a lot of physical evidence for only one specific god or many, but I like to make sure that I notice the things that shouldn’t have gone statistically in my favor. That hopefully is sowing something watching over me.
