Bio

I am a futuristic Pagan. I think the Abrahamic god is a roadblock to the next step in human evolution! Spirituality is not written in a holy book - it changes and EVOLVES

Favourite Philosopher

Nietsche

Favourite Quotations

People fear change even when the condition they’re living in is miserable.

How can we know our future is we don’t know our TRUE PAST!
