Both petitions are to the White House.  In my view Obama has neither the bravery nor the integrity to do much, but the publicity is important. You have to get a White House password, but that seems no big deal. One attacks the hideous argument by Christian bigots that we are legally a second class…

In what might prove to be one of the most important inventions of the past 100 years, Andrea Rossi’s claim to have a functioning cold fusion reactor appears to have  passed important tests.  Stay tuned.  f this thing is real it will go far towards closing down the oil and coal industries, which richly deserve…

Are there any public Samhain gatherings around there the night of the 31st?

Chris Hedges has written one of the most sensitive and insightful analyses of what is currently happening in New York, and across the country.  I urge everyone to read it and follow it up with Paul Krugman’s piece as well.  That said, many of us Pagans will recognize as very familiar much of Hedges’ description…

There are many levels to this book, perhaps more even than the author intended, for one that lies within the narrative throughout…

The Fall Equinox is upon us.  It is giving us all an opportunity to focus on the question of balance, and I hope also on what Pagan religions generally offer the modern world that the dominant Western and Eastern faiths do not.

One of the most unexpected aspects of my Yukon adventure was the very different ‘feel’ of country where humanity’s technological imprint is an unpaved road with no dwellings or other roads for over 100 miles – and for many hundreds of miles to the side.  I had never been in such a place before, though…
