Again we see that in an overculture of Monotheistic Privilege, it’s quite socially acceptable to spread hateful lies about Pagans – by Starstuff, Contemplating

The main thing that this article says to me is that monotheistic privilege is still alive, well, and harmful in America today, being a driving force on the right and still very present on the left.  It shows that it’s still quite socially acceptable, due to our overculture of monotheistic privilege, to foment the disparagement of Pagans through spreading lies – and indeed, often not socially acceptable to point out that this is what is being done.

Anti-Theists, atheism, Atheist community, Atheopaganism, Religious history

Existing in both the atheist world and in the Pagan, Atheopagans have the unique “good fortune” of fielding criticism from extreme elements of both. I’ve written before about Pagan fundamentalists who dismiss our religion as “not real Paganism. ” Today, we take a look at the atheist community’s counterpart: the so-called “anti-theists”. A vocal subset … Continue reading Talking with Atheists Who Dismiss Your Atheopagan Practice
