End the witch hunts. Pagans are here & now.
by janus,
Throughout the history of the world, fundamentalist religious zealots have attempted to defame or even annihilate people they refer to as pagans. To that, we say NO MORE KILLING. Killing and defaming someone when their religious beliefs and moral values does not appear to conform with yours is not a valid excuse. We unite, not to force you to adopt our beliefs, but to defend ourselves from being forced to adopt the beliefs of the zealots.
Religious beliefs of Pagans are just as spiritually innocent, if not more, as any other religious beliefs. So, to those who have used pagan as a word to describe someone whose religious beliefs and practices who they believe to be less valid than their own, all you are doing is showing that your beliefs are intentionally bigoted and hurtful. It is like the child on the playground who uses ridicule in order to attempt to claim more self-worthiness. In the case of putting down someone else’s religion, it is an attempt at self-righteousness. Well, you will not get any admiration from us. You are no better than pagans. When examined by thinking persons, you will not come out as any more righteous.
A nation which allows the defamation of pagans or any religious beliefs is no better than than a nation which adopts sharia laws in order to justify enslavement, torture, and killings.
