Inheritance
The more I read on blog sites like The Archdruid Report and The Tiny Ouroboros, the more I think about the world my son is going to inherit. There is little doubt in my mind that Peak Oil is coming, if not here, and that the time I have right now is damned precious. It's time I am using to develop some basic skills on how to grow and, when we ( Read more... ) -

A Rant on Dabblers, the Occult and Demons
Whatever you want to call them, dabblers, fluffy bunnies, idiot novices, in just a half-hour show destroy credibility and understanding of the occult in the eyes of the common people (and people whom the occult community would like to make peace or friendship with). The show is A Haunting and it airs on Discovery Channel (Read more... ) -
My Thoughts on Cultural Appropriation
I find it interesting that we worry so much about cultural appropriation in Paganism when, really when you get down to the meat of the issue, Pagans are (very generally) culturally appropriating from someone. Simply put, the main religion of the United States (after the white eradication of the Native peoples) is Christianity, and anything beyond ( Read more... )
