Demystifying Paganism - The Video
We were recently informed of a very important video that's currently circulating throughout the internet. The video is
presented by Rev. Derrek Younger and discusses what Paganism really IS vs. what Paganism ISN'T. Everyone
of every faith should view this video. Not only does it dispel many of the myths and misconceptions about Paganism, but
helps set the record straight for so many people who have such inaccurate views about the subject.
In addition
to his Demystifying Paganism video, Rev. Younger has also produced several other video sermons discussing other aspects
of faith. The links to the videos are listed below along with a link to Rev. Derrek Younger's website.
The following quote is Rev. Younger's statement of Faith and Credentials from his website:
"I do not adhere to any denomination of any religion. I practice a variety of things from multiple religions. I
consider every religion valid in its own right and that is what I try to promote in the videos I release. I am every
religion I have ever or, will ever encounter throughout my life. Since I cannot put a name to it, when asked, I simply
say this:
I am the same religion as Yeshua, Buddha, Zoroaster, Krishna, Gandhi and every other Prophet and
Philosopher who has come or will come. None of these adhered to the religions of their ancestors and none of them
were a follower of the religions that sprang from their pupils. IE, Yeshua could not be considered a "Christian" and
Buddha, could not be considered a "Buddhist"
I am ordained through three entities. The Church of Spiritual
Humanism, The Universal Life Church and Universal Ministries. I obtained ordination through these entities in order
to be legally recognized and obtain all the rights and privileges of a minister. Some do not see these entities as
legitimate, because as some have said "they will ordain anyone". This, I suppose, is true. However, I do not see that
as a fault of the entity but a strength. The fault, if any, is with the individual who does not or will not take the
responsibility seriously. That person has not lessened the validity of the organization, but the validity of
him/herself.
Secondly, I obtained ordination from these entities, because had I gone to a denominational
church, they would not have ordained me unless I adhered to their doctrine/dogma, some of which I do not believe,
and would have been forced to lie in order to obtain said ordination, furthermore, my credentials would soon be
removed for preaching what I do.
Namaste:
Rev. Derrek Younger"
