Responding to one of the GUESTs:

Heathen, not pagan. Does that count? And I'm guessing everyone affiliated with filk has heathen/pagan leanings.

Watch the generalizations there. Yes, there are a number of pagan/Wiccan folks in the filk community. Yes, a number of very prominent performers in the community are. But not everyone.

I for one am Jewish, though not an observant one, and a number of my friends in the community are Orthodox. I also know a couple of Catholics and a couple of other devout Christians.
