OC...through which organization did you receive ordination?

I got it here. My ordination date is September 20, 2003. The woman that married me is Wiccan, and she's taken on the title of "Ordained Priestess". I like it, and have decided to use it. I'm really a Rev. now. MUHAHAH! But seriously, the ULC is rather Wiccan at heart, in the spirit of "An ye harm none..." So I figured why not? Steve (who is kinda religious) finds it slightly offensive. I'm still trying to explain that it's a title, but he's caught up on the whole "holiness" and "religious education" thing. I'll sway him eventually.

And by the way...ritual *is* important, for a lot of reasons. On the other hand, no one can sanctify a union between two people besides those two people...and you seem to have done that!

I agree ritual is important, but it's not REQUIRED. And most people don't know that. We had our own little ceremony at home, and that, more than anything, sealed the deal.
