New York priest accused of cashing dead teacher's pension checks - Yahoo! News

It's nice to see how Church leaders weather the tough economy. This priest was cashing a dead woman's pension checks while lying about her death for more than 10 years! On top of that, he would preach about God to other customers at the bank in the process. I guess he had to skate over that verses about not stealing or bearing false witness. Disturbing. - Tater

He would cash the checks, which amounted to about $241,000, often at a local bank, investigators said. Investigators said they interviewed bank staff, who recalled Rosa often preached about God to other customers while waiting in line.

The Phoenix Temple, Tantra, and Sacred Sexuality

Living in Phoenix (Land of the rising sun), I realize this is such a spiritual place. But, even though it is so spiritual, we must endure the battles for religious freedom. The events that occur at the temple brought harm to none yet they were raided and the sacred temple, desecrated. But those who brought desecration, will themselves be desecrated in accordance with the laws of the universe, which brings me great comfort. - Tater

Recently, in Phoenix, Arizona, a group of people appear to have allegedly used the concepts of Tantra, goddess worship, and sexual healing as a cover for illegal acts: prostitution. They called themselves the Phoenix Goddess Temple, and after six months of undercover work (I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of dollars that cost the people of Phoenix and whether the money could have been better-spent elsewhere?), the police busted the church (yes, they were a legal church) and had some of the people being arrested do a “perp walk” for TV cameras. A brief report from the police’s side can be found here. Jason Pitzi-Waters, in his Pagan-oriented blog, The Wild Hunt, gives another view of what happened at this LINK, and he follows up HERE.

Kiss My A** « Ward Anderson

It's time for club owners to face the facts, if you want to reach out to the "clean" crowd, have a family night or something, but leave your main comedy shows alone. My favorite act of censorship began in a comedy club that began not allowing the comics to drink alcohol on stage because they felt it sent a "negative message" and yet the club had a full bar menu available and a two drink minimum. What kind of negative message are they worried about sending? The guy on stage likes to drink like everyone else in the crowd? Then the club progressed to censoring the language of the comics and topics discussed. The club is now a lame duck. People who go to comedy clubs are not looking for Mickey Mouse cookie cutter comedy. The whole reason they are out at the comedy club is let go of the cookie cutter lifestyle of the day world and laugh their asses off. Now I'm not saying that comics HAVE to be dirty, but it is our job to expose the dark dirty areas of the mundane life. Thanks Ward for telling it like it is.

I toured 49 weeks on the road last year, traveling to 38 states and 5 Canadian provinces. I can tell you first-hand that the average comedy club audience does not want a watered-down, sanitized, or censored comedy show. In fact, I’ve been amazed at the fact that many crowds have caused me to push my otherwise PG-13 show straight into R-rated territory, made clear by their overzealous reaction to the dirtiest jokes and tepid reaction to the same routines when cleaned-up for certain situations. Hands down, the more “adult” the show, the better the response from the crowd…and that includes when I was simply witness to other comedians performances and not just my own experiences on stage.

Yet I’m amazed to find more and more comedy clubs censoring the comedians who work there. That’s exactly what it is, by the way: censorship. To call it anything else is an insult to both the performer and the audience. It’s a decision made by nothing but a combination of ignorance and arrogance, by the way.

Full Moon in Aries: October 11, 2011 - Astrological Musings

A time of polarity between pushing forward into new territory and the desire to not "rock the boat". Not a fun time, but it provides the possibility of inner balance of ideals. - Tater (Real Spells - a Magick resource)

Full Moon in Aries: October 11, 2011

posted by Lynn Hayes | 8:01am Monday October 10, 2011

The Aries Full Moon occurs on the evening of October 11th. As in any Full Moon, the Aries Moon opposes the Libra Sun, bringing the Aries/Libra polarity into the forefront of our awareness.

The Aries/Libra dynamic balances the need for self-orientation (Aries) with a focus on  The Other (Libra). Libra itself  seeks to achieve balance, and in that quest there is often a loss of the desired balance  as the quest for harmony, especially in relationships, takes precedence over personal needs. Aries maintains the focus on personal needs and is less interested in achieving balance.

Scared Bros At A Haunted House

I love all the different types of reactions of people caught off guard. Even though they, obviously, know they are in a haunted house and expect to be spooked, they don't know that their reactions will be captured. Not knowing what they are actually seeing, it amazes me how most of them huddle together for protection from something they know won't hurt them. Plus, it's hard to look cool, peeing in your pants. :) - Tater

Scared Bros At A Haunted House

Sometimes people come for a reading and start by asking how they will know if what I say is true. The truth is that we already know what truth is, but we have forgotten the facility to know that truth. Ultimately it is not about knowing the veracity of what the Tarot Reader says, but growing towards knowing truth after the reading. Self belief is not about arrogance – if it is, it the ego at work.

Witches and Stone Circles: Caring for the Past | Suite101.com

Do tourists drain the power out of magick rituals at stone circles or other prehistoric sites? Are we trashing these powerful areas in the name of consumerism? - Tater

Witches and Stone Circles: Caring for the Past

Pagans of all denominations are drawn to stone circles and other prehistoric sites; and tourism booms at the Sabbats. But are we caring for our heritage?

No-one knows for certain what prompted our ancestors to drag huge chunks of rock, over many miles, then arrange them in patterns and enclosures. One of the most likely explanations for stone circles was that they were meeting places for related communities dotted across the landscape. They might well have been status symbols and calendars too, but their basic function was as a focal point for gatherings. These could have been ceremonial; it could equally have been a market or a place for eligible young people to meet each other. It could have been all of the above.

When Pagans visit these prehistoric constructions now, it can feel like we're continuing a tradition stretching back into antiquity. But unless we're careful, our celebrations are at risk of doing more harm than good.

Witchcraft and the Charge of the Goddess

The great Doreen Valiente wrote the Charge of the Goddess. It's not an ancient text, but it doesn't need to be. It highlights all it means to be a witch and walks us through our ritual meetings. Being Wiccan, this is generally more a guideline than hard and fast rules.
