"Buckland's Complete Book of >Witchcraft" If anyone cares. honestly, what does this have to do with "nature"? how does it in any way influence Neopagans and Wiccans and Witches to move beyond strident imaginaryland ritualism into actively taking a hand in changing the behaviors of the individuals involved, let alone the rest of the species? c'mon, ain't you talking about worshipping a MOTHER goddess, the very force behind all this here birthing and hemming and hawing? is a *fertility* religion really gonna do anything serious about the overreproduction of human beings? is celebration of the aesthetic pleasures honestly gonna teach us about a way to come to discipline with regard to our consumption? and boy howdee, what about real, honest-to-goddess ecological principles in that there religion? where is it in the book by Buckland you're pushing? the essential responses I have for you include: what does "harmony with nature" mean? how can it best be achieved? is self-determination adversarial to that? blessed beast, you! ;> boboroshi, Satanic Outreach Director for the Church of Euthanasia closet wikkhun from the evul wikkunz holy church of blasphemy -- tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com (emailed replies may be posted); 408/2-666-SLUG cc me replies; http://www.abyss.com/tokus; http://www.hollyfeld.org/~tyagi
