Well, over 16 years of teaching, I've seen Christians and Jews offended by
Druids and Wiccans, I've been given the willies by a Catholic, and roasted
with religious fervor by a vegetarian feminist. I've seen mud flung at and
by biodynamisters. All during PDCs. Then there was the brouha begun by a
native American, answered by a coven, and rebutted by Christians at IPC
II... which had Bill, Zen master Fukuoka, and Bible-swinging Wes Jackson
trading digs.


I'd have to conclude that a good many in the scene feel very deeply in the
spiritual dept., that it's a primary reason they are in the scene.
I know it is for me, I just wish everyone else would realize that I know the
one true way.
