Bad Pagan! No cookie!


Acceptance is probably the more mature way.... unfortunately, I am not very mature! :o) I try... thenĀ I get lazy about it.

I agree about diversity, but some diversity is more of a danger.

I think I've just utterly lost all respect for this woman.

BEtween that and



Well,
it WAS my opinion that it was because during the late dark ages and
middle ages, the Church was run by a bunch of ascetics who were so
misogynist as to be verging on serious women haters... it was at this
time that women who were healers were deemed "witches" and evil. BUT
the whole roman society, at the time of the founding of Christianity
was pretty anti-woman as a whole... now, I think it's just a settled
and accepted thing... again, in my humble opinion, by a bunch of women
haters... though historically, priests and priestesses have often been
celebate, this is taking it a little too far. Kind of unhealthy in my
opinion. They still think that women TEMPT men, that women can't
control themselves, even in front of the massive evidence that it's MEN
who can't control themselves! :o) (this isn't counting the men who can
of course) I just don't understand the concept that if a man is not
thinking of sex (and how often is this?) That he'll spend more time
thinking of God? I'd think that not having sex would make most men
think of it MORE.

Isn't
it usually the sterotypes that cause the problems? Not the individuals,
who are generally cool people. :o) BUT, most catholics sit by like Good
Germans and continue to allow some of the bad stuff to continue...
probably fearful that they might be excommunicated for standing up and
saying "This is Wrong".

She's SPREWING sterotypes left and right and then sits there going 'But sterotypes hurt people!'

ARG!

After this debate is over, I'm so OFF this group. FUck it all!

Why can I NOT find a decent pagan/new age 'Learn about' group that's not full of stupid bints who OMGOMG abotu EEEEEEEBIL monothisms and see the world in sterotypes or full of 'OUR WAY IS THE ONLY WAY, HEATHEN' more mystical them though ass hats?

Fuck it. I'm sticking with books.


edit: One last idoicy!


No,
this is not true, there was a case put before Bush Sr. A woman killed
her husband after he'd broken most of the bones in her body... Bush
refused to excuse it. 60 minutes did a thing on it as did many news
shows, showing the statistics that men who kill their wives get
significantly less jail time than women. Women are way more likely to
get life. I think that men tend to think that women deserve whatever
they get... not all men, just the fruitloops who happen to be judges.

Someone remind me when Bush was a judge?



Edit: And then there;s this lovly bit from another twit:

We can agree to disagree and I can believe that any religion that says my
way or die is a cult.
its all good
or bad depends on your outlook.:-)


So, basicly, she can be intolerant all she wants while bashing other religions for being intolerant.

Boggles the mind, it do...

Keep with the philosophy of Paganism and avoid the people of paganism and you should be fine

This is why I avoid most pagan groups. XP

It'd be cool if there was one that, like, filtered its members the way many RPG groups do. It'd be harder to get new flows of information, though.

Or like KG, with a select group that bitchslaps dumbasses until they shape up or go away. XD


Books are good. Reputable websites are good. People one knows to be reliable are good. These sorts you've quoted? Definitely not good.

The thing that bugs me the most is that up til now, it's seemed like a decent group. Some of the things fowarded through were kinda 'Erm...' like the spell of the day crap that I had to correct at least two of [One was a Paganize a Jewish Holiday!' one that had the holiday info all sorts of wrong. ><] but til now, it's seemed like a decent, non twithappy group.

And the two faced asshattery just... ARG.

Makes me utterly question the valiidy of any infomation gained from that place. ><

And it really annoys me cause there was some neat Eco and gardening stuffs as well as the herblore... So it seemed lke a REAL good group for me.

But not after this hsit. ><

To the bint you quoted:
