A Greased Scotsman Posted March 8, 2017 Hello all, I'm A Greased Scotsman. I found my way here thanks to the Taoist WikiProject (I'm not a contributor, I just stumbled on it). I'm a Scottish Pagan who has always held the words of Master Lao in high regard; I've recently become more & more drawn to the philosophical side of Taoism but I'd also like to learn about the history of religious Taoism starting with the Tianshi Tao. Just trying to figure out how to alter my profile to say more about myself. Watch this space! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't go near that sort of talk with me; it's a rather slippery subject I'll have a look around and see if there's any threads that answer my questions before creating any of my own. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
