A Pagan's Blog

Anyone wishing something worthwhile would come out of Washington has got to be disappointed in the outcome of Tuesday’s elections.  Disappointed, but not surprised.  Even though as both a party and on almost every issue the Republicans poll begind the Democrats, they whipped them soundly in the House.  The reasons are many, have nothing to…

I’m busy packing for two weeks on the road, starting tonight.  My hit on the election will come later – no time right now and it’s best to get a little perspective.  Have at it!

Encouraging terrorism and murder of American citizens.  Advocating mass murder abroad using the same logic they use against many Americans here at home, but so far lack the power…

It’s come to my attention that at least one person has repeatedly sent in a comment and been told I must approve it.  (Beliefnet’s system has occasionally told me I had to personally approve my OWN comments.)  I never received notice that I was supposed to approve a comment.  (They are supposed to notify me…
