Doctrix Zoe Cakes Doctrix Just to play devil's advocate, I'd say that my answer depends on why you would want to "add clarity" to the label. Is it in order to shut down discussion, avoid scrutiny or emphasise a desire to avoid fellowship? If that is the case, you might do the trick with a phrase like "Dark Paganism." So do you believe that dark paganism will not often be taken seriously by the general pagan community? That is but one assumption of many that could be made. My point is that the more specificity you add to a label, the more you shut down communication. That goes double when you add an adjective that implies negativity. For example: Instead of saying "I'm Pagan" and hearing somebody say "me too! What sort of rituals do you like to do?" or hearing "what's a Pagan?" You add the word "dark" and people are like, "I'm not that, and it sounds negative. I don't think this person and I would have much in common and it sounds like she's already made up her mind to be dark."
Ahhhh ok. I see what you mean now. I am glad you replied, as I did not consider that.
