POPSChristo Wicca I believe in the acceptance and respect of all religions. I lean towards The United Church Of Christ but find this concept of a blend of beliefs enlightening. I have reverence for the earth and feel the materials of the earth are placed here by a superior being for us to incorporate into our faith based practices and religious rituals. Freedom to all people to worship as they see fit. Blessed be, God Bless, open your hearts and minds and through Jesus Christ and His many diverse means of worshiping Him! We should celebrate this diversity and the beauty of nature which comes from above!

POPSMore Pagan Than Pagan I live next door to a church. Really, I could throw a rock from our balcony and hit the steeple... not that I am suggesting anything. Anyway, the church provides endless hilarity as I drive past it to get to my parking lot, what with its Harvest Festival pumpkins festooning their lawn and large banner advertising the harvest season. I suspect this vaguely pisses off all the pagans, though really they should be used to having their holidays hypocritically pilfered from them ever since Yule went the way of Christmas. I wonder what would happen if I went over there with a magic marker and decorated their pumpkins with pentacles... Well, it seems I'm not the only one to live near enough to a church to notice this happy irony:

POPSWeird Brooch or Pin with Spider in Spiderweb I would like to know the age and significance of this piece of costume jewelry. It has such a weird design, kind of ugly, with a spider, fly, and spider web. Are the end shapes baskets, crowns, crinolines, hoop skirts, funnels (as in funnel-web spider)? It is spiritual and mysterious, and the symbols might be of Jung, like dream symbols. The spider, web, and egg or dewdrop could be about self-search, self-awareness, subconsciousness... ? It's heavy and old-fashioned. Have you seen one like it? I'm really curious, even after it sells. Would it be real jewelry (that a lady would wear every day) or just made for a Halloween costume? I've searched, but couldn't find a similar one.

POPSTucker Carlson: Wiccan lottery winner = government subsidation of Satanism
Here's my nominee for Wanker of the Day. A Wiccan wins big in the lottery, says he attributes the win to Wiccan Magic and that he's going to use his winnings to quit his job and teach Wicca full time. Now, if a winner has attributed his winnings to Jesus and said that he was going to use his winnings to quit his job and teach Christianity, everyone would talk about how wonderful what he's doing is - but I can't imagine any pundit or politician claiming that its an example of the government subsidizing Christianity, eh? And, of course, if I understand how lotteries work, the government isn't subsidizing ANYTHING. The whole point of government run lotteries is for the state to be able to raise money - usually to be used in funding education and such. Its all the other lottery players who are "subsidizing" the winners (if you want to put it that way.) Anyway, just had to share that particular crock of crap. What a f*#^!ng donkey!

POPSBush Snubs War Widow This is disgraceful, but it does not surprise me. It just continues to show me how "unChristian" this "compassionate conservative" president truly is. Very few things in this world bind us all together. Death binds us all as we will all eventually see the grave, regardless of religion. If we cannot show compassion for each other, particularly when you (as president) are personally responsible for the orders that sent a man to war and thus, to his death, then we are no better than those we might consider our enemy. This soldier gave his life for Bush's war and thus his wife has sacrificed her husband to support George Bush...the least he could do is express his sincere condolences to this woman, regardless of whether he supports her religious beliefs or not.
