"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Lotta Gaia worshippers fit right in with witchcraft, especially since many sects have expanded to include a diverse population.
Religion of this kind isn't about Faith in a loving Power Greater than oneself, it's about Personal Power. "Diversity" is used to be able to include others who have no standards.
This story makes me smile, since it reminds me of growing up in Marin County, California. I am the only person I know who has said "My High School friend just broke up with that witch" and meant it as a comment on her religion, not her personality. :).

ReplyDeleteMike: Haw! I would say "only in California", but I'm afraid the weirdness has become general.
