A few thoughts
So in the past few days, been reading a lot about personal beliefs and what not about different things, especially sexuality. I try to always respect what others believe, as long as they are respectful towards me. It occurs to me though, that I haven't made my side of the story known, and I have as much right as anyone to do so :P

If you were comfortable adding me to The List sometime, I'd enjoy seeing if you had any other interesting tidbits.
It's refreshing to see that I'm not the only catholic-turned-slightly-unitarian (ie, "everyone does things in their own way, but they're really not all that different"). Wicca didn't lead me to that conclusion so much as just introspection and a bit of common sense, so I guess you can arrive there via different venues, too.
If I were to contradict anything, it would be to indicate caution on the "do whatever you want, so long as it doesn't hurt others" concept. Originally, I had a similar opinion, as it makes good logical sense. Unfortunately that doesn't describe who gets to decide when "hurting" takes place, or how you define "hurting" itself. Many people are far too shortsighted, or just plain dumb, to make that determination for themselves... let alone me.
This could swing into yet another soapbox talk about "survival of the fittest" versus "survival of the best", but I'm sure you get my point. :) Fortunately intelligence often translates into money, which translates into success/"fitness"... but wouldn't it be nice if applied intelligence/wisdom were respected in its own right.
Anyhoo, thanks for providing good reading!
