I identify, as far as this subject is concerned and in order of importance to me, as secular, atheist, and pagan. I'd like to bring my pagan view to the radio show but frankly I'm intimidated.

Why not? My wife is a shaman, pagan for sure and she would not hesitate to talk about it on a radio show or any other venue.

I myself am more in the atheist camp.
I feel that I know you a bit from your erudite posts, and now I see you must have some very interesting conversations at home.

Does your wife dance around a camp fire half naked? Sounds like fun. Where's the camp?

Paganism typically does not labor under a load of doctrine in need of intellectual underpinnings and proofs of gods' existence. It is typically straight-forward celebration of life's rhythms, the bounty of nature, solar and cosmic cycles (solstices, that sort of thing). Dancing in tune with Nature....
