POPSWiccan Pentacle Added to Emblems Allowed on Headstones The pentacle has been added to 38 symbols the VA already permits on gravestones. They include commonly recognized symbols for Christianity, Buddhism, Islam and Judaism, as well as those for smaller religions such as Sufism Reoriented, Eckiankar and the Japanese faith Seicho-No-Ie. VA-issued headstones, markers and plaques can be used in any cemetery, whether it is a national one such as Arlington or a private burial ground like that on Circle Sanctuary's property. Wicca is a nature-based religion based on respect for the earth, nature and the cycle of the seasons. Variations of the pentacle not accepted by Wiccans have been used in horror movies as a sign of the devil.

POPSAtheist soldier suing Army for discrimination Well, it is probable that this is all a part of the radical religious right and their agenda, but I've got no evidence of any conspiracy or anything. Still, it seems the folks at Fort Riley had a political agenda, at least according to the lawsuit. And I'm not seeing denials about that.

POPSGreat Ideas: Altar Boxes This is a great idea. The altar box I'm making will be from a "hat box" with removable legs. I have a larger one that I made from a steamer trunk.
