Neo-Pagans Get Worship Circle at Air Force Academy In Colorado, USA

Quote:

....The Air Force Academy in Colorado is about to recognize its first Wiccan prayer circle, a Stonehenge on the Rockies that will serve as an outdoor place of worship for the academy's neo-pagans.
......
"When I first arrived here, Earth-centered cadets didn't have anywhere to call home," said Sgt. Robert Longcrier, the lay leader of the neo-pagan groups on base. "Now, they meet every Monday night, they get to go on retreats, and they have a stone circle."
.....
The Air Force recognizes several distinct forms of neo-paganism, including Dianic Wicca, Seax Wicca, Gardnerian Wicca, shamanism and Druidism, .....

Hey, that's nice. I'm not a pagan but a bonfire dance would sure be fun (I'm not falling into stereotypes, am I?).

It's reallly the only thing that annoys me about the pagans. No good bonfire dances, no Samhain revelry, no, um, stuff Granny Weatherwax would disapprove of and what Nanny Oggs would be all in favour of.

You and me both, Gurdur. One of these years I want to throw a massive Summer Solstice party with like, an entire boar to barbeque. I have a friend who turned a 500 gallon propane tank into a barbeque, the thing rocks, and I know he'd let me borrow it for a day if he could come eat.

Big bonfire, loud music, etc.
