Witch wars revisited

Last updated on: May 28, 2011 at 1:07 pm By Peter Dybing

Witch wars revisited Recent debate in the community about the label Pagan may well undermine many of the achievements this community has struggled so hard to obtain. As a community we have strength in numbers, our influence will only be eroded should individual paths diverge from the relative safety the Pagan umbrella. Many of these individuals follow respected belief systems that have relatively few adherents in comparison to larger Pagan groups. It is a testament to the inclusiveness of our... Read more

Lessons from Texas

Last updated on: May 6, 2011 at 3:56 pm By Peter Dybing

Writers in the Pagan community often confront attempts in the media to single out the Pagan community as “the other”. This process enables people to view our community as separate and not deserving of the protections that all Americans enjoy. My recent experience in responding to a disaster in a small Texas town was enlightening as to how this very process that we resist at every opportunity has subtly entered into my own thinking. Jefferson Davis County in far southwest... Read more

Open Letter to All Republican Women

Last updated on: April 8, 2011 at 6:35 pm By Peter Dybing

Today your party is engaged in a frontal assault on your rights as a woman. Millions of woman will no longer have access to birth control, cancer screenings, reproductive health services etc. This assault will return women to the days when deaths were common due to back room abortions. While many of you may have grown up in a time when these rights were taken for granted there are those who remember when women were relegated to the status of... Read more

Saving Lives, Lady Pantera Makes a Difference

Last updated on: April 4, 2011 at 6:05 am By Peter Dybing

There are many Pagans in the world making a difference. Most are somewhat uncomfortable in sharing in a public forum what they are doing. For some, this reaction is simply a reflection of their belief that what they are doing is not remarkable. Yet as a community we need these examples of Pagans who walk their talk and manifest positive change in the world. One such person is Lady Pantera, long time Florida Pagan community participant and former member of... Read more

When Pagans encounter Disaster

Last updated on: April 3, 2011 at 1:43 pm By Peter Dybing

Last week in a small Georgia community residents exemplified the cohesion that a community can develop in the face of disaster. Wild Fire swept through their town and people of all races, faiths and cultures pulled together. Homes were lost to the power of Fire and the community exemplified what it means to be united in support of both the victims and responders. Established groups served more than 4,500 meals to hundreds of firefighters. Families who lost their homes were... Read more

Japan: Interview with Eric Ouannes, General Director, MSF Japan

Last updated on: March 19, 2011 at 8:24 am By Peter Dybing

MARCH 17, 2011 Could you explain how MSF responded to the quake? Well, rapidly. At least we tried to respond very rapidly. What we have looked at right from the beginning is a very small team trying to be flexible, mobile, modular. To be able to move from one place to another quite quickly and try to cover as much as distance as possible and visit as many evacuation centers as possible. Can you tell us a bit about the...
