We love questions! Here are your answers about modern animism from the Panist perspective. Tune in and hear Laura answer the following questions:

I am a Christian Panist? How do I explain this to others in a way that they will understand?

I'm adopted. I don't know who my blood family is. How can I get in touch with my ancestor helpers?

I strongly believe in the things that you talk about, but I now I feel like more of a fraud than ever. Before I wasn't sure what I believed and that made me insecure. Now I know what I believe, but I don't speak out because I think people will think that I am crazy. Can you help?

I'm just getting started with rituals. I practice every day. I was talking to someone who told me that I am doing it too often. How often is too often?

I am researching the old Gods and found that I gravitate towards Norse gods, but also have a few Hindu ones and Greek ones that I like. Is that wrong?

Are there any places of pilgrimage for Panists?

Your winter retreat features a Cuddle Party. How is this spiritual?

Is Pan a nature based religion? 

Is Panism matriarchal?

Pan seems more like a philosphy than a religion. Is it?

If I believe in the ideas of Pan, but never go to a meeting or gathering, can I still be a Panist?

I was starting to like the idea of Pan, but now I am seeing a bunch of people celebrating the Winter Solstice and it seems like it's just a fad? How are you different?

If Panists aren't evil, why do you do rituals in the dark at night?

Do you have a Bible?

Are Panists pagans?

Do Panists pray?

Do you practice witchcraft?

How do I become a Panist?

Can you explain that idea of amocaras? 

If I want a Panist ceremony for getting married or a funeral or something like that, how do I find an amocara?

How can I train as an amocara?

You often talk about developing a relationship with nature or the ancestors. How do you do that?

Does Panims have any ancient roots?

I saw the videos on the holly and the vultures. What do they have to do with spirituality?

Are there different kinds of animists?

Are Panists heathens?
