Note to self:
Don't get involved in arguments on the internet.
Especially not about religion.
Even if none of the religions involved is yours.

*grin* You fighting the good fight?

[drcuriosity]

Something like that. Dealing with the kind of people who think Wicca is thousands of years old, Druidism is all about sacrificing babies and that Aleister Crowley wrote the Satanic Bible. I got tired of hitting my head against the table :-)

Sad. So very, very sad. I weep at the future of ecumenical dialogue, with educated examples as these loitering about.

Baby bats?

Also known as kindergoths, gothlings, and so forth. Often found in malls, Marilyn Manson concerts, and Hot Topic ;-)

What Morbid said, with the understanding that these are the type of kiddos who think the stage dressing is the whole substance, and frequently don't even get the stage dressing right. (See "Crowley as author of Satanic Bible" silliness; that was Anton LeVey.)

For heavens sakes DON'T point me anywhere near them. I CANNOT resist.

People will have Closed Minds

[mpj17.livejournal.com]

People will have closed minds until they want them to be open, which makes discussions frustrating if you are actually trying to convey some insight. Most of the time conveying some history can be difficult :)

Having said that, I love having arguments about religion because of the pointless nature of the endeavor. Once in a while I manage to learn some history and teach some in return\ldots
