Wow Psycho, we agree. The state is not the solution to this problem, right? Go to churches, synagogs, mosques, whatever one calls Wiccan churches?
Thats correct. The state should only recognize it in so far as income taxes are involved.
If they agreed to take the state out of it, then they would start protesting churches that wouldnt allow it, guaranteed.
One of the basic problems with issues like this is you are dealing with a group of people who have an inate sense of unhappiness. They search for things they think are making them unhappy, all the while ignoring the elephant in the room which is the cause. They delude themselves that its something like, "we are discriminated against" and attack the , real or imagined, discrimination.
Problem is, when that issued is taken care of, they are still unhappy, and go after something else. Happy people generally get on about their lives and arent always into some activism.
Thats why activists are always activists, they are never happy. Thats also why its overwhelmingly liberals who are activists. It requires two things, an inate unhappiness (despite their outward appearance) and self delusion. Some thing the liberal camp is loaded with.
A few examples are the ACLU. They no longer are needed. I admit, in the 60's, I would have been a die hard card carrying member. In fact, I may not have survived the decade. But today, they have to search for trivial little issues to justify themselves. MY GOD, imagine how horrible it was when some high school grad mentioned God in his graduation speech. Im sure the crowd went running in horror.
NOW is another great example. They continue on but really have no issues to address.
A good example of a group of activists, that truly are in it for the right reason, was the abolitionists. (I might add, they were overwhelminglly devoted Christians). Once slavery was abolished, the group dissappeared. No reason to exist anymore.
