Hi! Just curious, how do you all praise the Lord and Lady? Do you guys say a prayer to them? Light a candle for each of them and thank them? sweatdrop Sing a song to them?

Well, some of us aren't Wiccan, or Ecclectic Pagans pretending to be Wiccan, or believe in a male and female set of soft-polytheistic gods that, for one reason or another, are given the names Lord and Lady...
I count myself as one who isn't one of the above, so no, I don't worship or praise "the Lord and Lady".
I don't actually worship any one or thing.
I'm not ready to.
When I'm ready to /dedicate myself to any deity/, /join a recon group/, (etc), it'll be from the result of long, hard study and research and asking through whatever means is applicable if They/He/She/It wants me as a follower - And so on...
Even if I were ready to join a recon group (etc), I'm not sure how much "worshipping/praising" I'd be doing, if any
This is assuming that one "praises" because one "worships" - yes?

I'm kinda with Bavi on this one. I'm really not into soft polytheism since to me its kinda like the idea of the Christian's "God." One of the reasons people turn away from monotheism is because of the idea of one giant omnipotent figure.
I also don't know if I can accept the idea that all goddess are one goddess. Especially when you turn away from the more popular pagan pantheons. Many other pantheons view their deities in an entirely different way which makes it unrealistic to bunch them up into one group.
Anyway, that's just my take on it.
