Pagan Threat?

Send us Fan MailStart with a bold claim, add a dash of panic, and mix in a grab bag of unrelated beliefs—what could go wrong? We dig into the arguments behind Pagan Threat and unpack why the “one big pagan conspiracy” collapses the moment you look at how diverse, decentralized, and non-proselytizing most pagan communities actually are. We talk about how the book blurs pagan practices with Eastern philosophies, then leaps to politics as if religion dictates party. We also get real about optics: social media algorithms boost the loudest stunts, which means curses and hexes trend while quiet blessings and ordinary devotion barely register. That skew alters feeds where the extreme becomes the supposed norm, and critics mistake the feed for the field.The conversation widens to a practical ethic: defend your path without demeaning someone else’s. We call out Christian-bashing the same way we push back on anti-pagan rhetoric, and we ground our stance in pluralism and the First Amendment. Freedom of conscience isn’t a loophole at the end of a polemic—it’s the starting point for living together with difference. Will this latest panic endure? Probably not. But it’s a useful moment to reset, separate faith from party, and remember that most spiritual life happens off-camera, in seasonal rites, mutual support, and personal practice.If this resonates, share the episode with a friend, subscribe for next week’s conversation, and leave a quick review so others can find the show. What misconception about your belief—or lack thereof—do you want the world to finally retire?Join us on Discord:  https://discord.gg/MdcMwqUjPZFacebook: (7) Life Temple and Seminary | Facebook
