Hummm, I am trying so hard to contain myself....I can't help snickering while writing this blog. This is a, "Now What?", or a"Nah..., Nah...., Nah Nah Nah!" moment...
I can come up with so many...LOL
Okay... Okay, I guess that I will put that little childish moment to bed, but I couldn't help it after I read the article below.
I am glad that someone has finally stood up to those that do not even want us to exist (or want us back in the broom closet). I am so happy that they did not change their stand the issue.
They are right and I applauded them for doing so. A person's religious preference has no baring on this at all. It is ability to do the job.
There is a law against discrimination of nationality, religion, sexual orientation, etc. .The are just abiding by the law that many want to break I guess...
ANYHEWWWW.........
It is about freakin' time!
I wish more Pagans and the like, would come OUT OF THE CLOSET and run for office! Stop hiding! Be who you are, and be damn PROUD OF IT.... We are no different than anyone else.
We shop, work, raise families, etc.. We are everyday people and average Joe's. We are teachers, doctors, lawyers, judges, police officers, soldiers, business owners, and so much more.
So, Mr. Dan Halloran of District, New York City Council, " YOU GO BOY!!!" I am proud of you and appreciate you and your service to your state & community. We may not share political sides.....Independent/Green Party here (yeah, I said it......), but I would still like to congratulations on your candidacy!

The post regarding women & children
Now..... I am wondering with the article posted about the murder of women and children....
Are we to go back into the "Broom Closet"? Are we suppose to again live in FEAR......Just what the hell is going on.....Why does history seem to repeat itself?
The burning times were the most horrible, dreadful times, and here we are facing this again. I am just appalled and extremely angry. How can people again become so ignorant and stupid? How can we let this twisted horror repeat itself. How many more have to lose their lives to this ignorance? I always say that stupidy is a choice...You can chose to educated yourself or not. You have a choice to take the red pill or the blue pill. Way too many people are sheep led and it drives me nuts. They chose to believe anything that people spew out their mouths & print twisted, untrue garbage, via an article, pamplet or book. Only to serve their sick agenda. Then you have other religions arguing to be "TOP DOG"! They are fighting to control the thoughts and minds of their followers.... Everyone needs to stop and see what they are doing. Are you honoring your truth paths, and what it teaches you? ACCEPTANCE OF ALL.......

What you need to do, is stop, look, take a deep breathe, and open up your minds, read true books, and gain an understanding of what being a witch or pagan really means. Better yet, just ask us. Come straight to the horse's mouth so to speak...
Break free of those shackles that are placed around your mind..
Think for yourselves. Seek the truth about who we are yourselves....
People chose to live in ignorance and that ignorance turns into fear......Which is all by design......keeping people in fear.....you keep them under your control!
Killing of Women, Child "witches" On Rise

Killing of Women, Child "witches" On Rise
Geneva, September 24, 2009 - Murder and persecution of women and children accused of being witches is spreading around the world and destroying the lives of millions of people, experts said on Wednesday.
The experts -- United Nations officials, civil society representatives from affected countries and non-governmental organisation (NGO) specialists working on the issue -- urged governments to acknowledge the extent of the persecution.
"This is becoming an international problem -- it is a form of persecution and violence that is spreading around the globe," Jeff Crisp of the U.N.'s refugee agency UNHCR told a seminar organised by human rights officials of the world body.
Aides to U.N. special investigators on women's rights and on summary executions said killings and violence against alleged witch women -- often elderly people -- were becoming common events in countries ranging from South Africa to India.
And community workers from Nepal and Papua New Guinea told the seminar, on the fringes of a session of the U.N.'s 47-member Human Rights Council, that "witch-hunting" was now common, both in rural communities and larger population centres.
HOMELESS CHILDREN
Gary Foxcroft of British-based charity Stepping Stones- Nigeria said children living homeless on the streets in many countries had been driven out by families or communities because they were suspected of being witches.
But increasingly children suspected of witchcraft -- usually on the basis of vague accusations -- were being killed because their parents feared they would have to take them back if the authorities identified them.
Ulrich Garms from the office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay told the seminar that there were no reliable statistics on how many women and child "witches" were killed annually around the globe.
Other U.N. officials tracking the problem said deaths ran into at least tens of thousands, and beatings, deprivation of property and banishment and isolation from community life meant victims of "witch frenzy" ran into millions.
Speakers at the seminar agreed that poverty, exacerbated by the current world economic crisis, often lay behind the phenomenon as people sought to find scapegoats for their misfortunes and the illnesses they suffered.
But some preachers of major religions and governments were also responsible, they said.

Wondering.....
...Been out of sorts lately. My whole family have come down with this cold/flu bug...It has taken it's toll, but we are still fighting away. So, I have been away for a bit. Now, I've found out that Patrick Swayze past on while I was away from the computer and TV for the past few days or so... I was so sadden again....I loved his roles in Dirty Dancing & Ghost. I don't think that there was ever a role that he played that I didn't like..
Rest in Peace my dearest Patrick! Thanks for never, ever giving up and your courage to keep fighting.. Love ,Light and peaceful journey! Condolences to his wife of nearly 35 years (I love seeing couples with long & strong marriages like my own), Mom, & family.
Now the title this little message was wondering......wasn't it?
Well.... I haven't checked into my normal stomping grounds so I am left to wonder what has been going down in the pagan world, or said against the pagan world.....I know someone has said or done something. It is common and expected, sad to say, but that is the way that it is....
Guess, what I will be doing this weekend? Yep, you got it...finding out the going ins, ons, downs, outs, and whatever else there is.....
I'm a Gemini, and it's my nature! .....LOL
Oh Wait! I did watch Housewives of Atlanta tonight. I swear, I would have jacked Kim up for what she pulled with the viewing of the photos and that song!

Some Folks Just... Well, They Just Have Issues!
......OKAY.. I am tring to keep my calm here before I tell Mrs. Harvey to blow it out her.. well.. ya already know that one.
What I am referring to is an article that little Mrs Harvey wrote for the Crusade...

or this version
http://www.witchschool.com/forum/topics/another-hatchet-job-blaming
There are times when, I just get so sick and tired of the wrong and twisted information that is constantly put out there. This woman does not know anything truthful about witchcraft!!!! They get these fantasy ideas and just run with it, and it is the same ole' message all the freakin time... They can never defer from the script!
I have this thing on my blog for a reason... If you do not or cannot have an open mind keep your mouth shut! Her mind is so warped with the garbage that has been taught her... So, I guess in a way, she cannot help herself..
We constantly say over and over that we do not worship the devil or satan and they keep throwing it up no matter how many times we say it. They are the ones that give it a voice over and over again, so go ahead, be my guest. If you want to give the devil or satan that kind of worship... ooops, I meant power, please go right ahead. Just realize that we do not share your views and that the devil/satan has no place in witchcraft, and I'm happy to let you have him(smile)....
Unfortunity, there are many like her all over the world and it's sad....It's say that they based all their knowledge of witchcraft and paganism on untruths.. What happened to that accepting of others... What happened to treated each other with respect no matter their walk or path in life? Why is it one sided?
What can I say? There will always be people like her, until their decide to break the shackles off their minds, and open up to the rest of the world... There are many from all walks and paths in life. Except it, deal with it and move on... All paths deserve respect. You may not like it and you don't have to, regardless, respect is in order, especially if you want respect for you faith, path or walk in life....
In the mean time, I just laugh and shake my head and wonder, hummm, who are the truly lost? I'll put money on the ones with minds that are sealed tighter than a steel drum!

Searching for Products Of Color....
Paganism is a multi faceted, multicultural path....Mostly everyone would agree to that.
There is a slight issue that I have. If it is so, as above, why can't we find objects that reflect that. I have daughters and I would love to have fairies in a color that refects them. I was thrilled and my young daughters where so happy when they saw the Disney movie, "Tinkerbell". There were fairies of different nationalities or ethnic backgrounds.
I have looked & shopped at alot of major pagan/occult companies via catalog and online, and there is nothing. Of course I can find green fairies, but still..
I am hoping that one day, while browsing through my usual stomping grounds like Azure Green, that I will find what I am looking for and that my girls can be excited to see and have something like they saw in that movie....
I know the usual saying,...If you cannot find it, make it.. I can do that easily through my quilts and other textile arts, but when it comes to pottery.... I'm a bit lost in the clay department and would need the help of others to help with that vision...
Of course some will say, it won't sell, and I will always say, how would you know?
I would buy it, and I think others will too if they have a mutil-cultural background,other ethnic makeup or just happen to want one in their collection. I am not saying have a large quantity, just a few to meet the needs of those that may want them.....
..............You may never know until you make them items available..........
Bright Blessings.....
