Indifference, apathy, inertia: we have no politics, no personal and collective responsibility. Maybe the scanario we are living in Italy could be the "future" of America if the free american women and men won't stop this decline which can somehow appear as unavoidable. <br /><br />I strongly believe that paganism, as a form of personal mindfulness and awareness, could be a way, a path to regain trust and sense of respect and responsibility toward the creation of a "decent society". <br /><br />We in Italy, after 1500 years, are still suffering the stigma of monoteism against any expression of deviation from the "right direction". In USA perhaps you have that freedom to be pagan we haven't in Italy due also to the large dominance of prejudices and ignorance. <br /><br />I'm at your disposal for the creation of a network of Pagans and Politics for the achievement of a "Decent Society" in our countries.<br />Pax<br /><br />CarmeloCarmelo Cannarellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03880676822722522314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443926733658770096.post-55447897623067577882014-04-07T14:28:58.244-04:002014-04-07T14:28:58.244-04:00One wonders how long it will take for the differen...One wonders how long it will take for the difference between the haves' and the have-nots' to reach the point that things did in France when their bloody French Revolution was triggered. "A Guillotine for every billionaire!" could very well be heard, maybe even the mere millionaires as well could find themselves bent over the headsman's block.<br /><br />I sure hope we can find ways to prevent such an outcome from the decisions of our corporately-owned supreme court.Ananta Androscogginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10779795421408839478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443926733658770096.post-19937796850718495132014-04-07T07:14:27.283-04:002014-04-07T07:14:27.283-04:00Loved the article and I agree on your discussion a...Loved the article and I agree on your discussion about the need for a new Universal Paganism.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
