badstarYou know, other than specifically ADF forums, I'm seriously considering just abandoning all participation on web forums related to pagan practice. If I cite a dictionary definition of a word, suddently I'm being insulting, mean, hostile, disrespectful of others beliefs, intolerant, whatever.
Why is it that so many pagans are so hung up on stupid things like calling the three-fold law "karma" and "oh my god, you're not allowed to buy your own tarot deck" and "don's use glass dishes, they're too modern and therefore evil and wrong and...and..and..." and freaking out if someone dares NOT wear ren faire garb to ritual. WHY??????
It drives me crazy. if you challenge someone's statement of something being "historical fact", either you're mean and intolerant, or well it just doesn't matter because paganism is "anything you want it to be".
Hello people, GROW A SPINE and do a little bit of learning. Just for once, bother to know what you're talking about.
