[Vision2020] Wiccans and Courtney's BLog

[debismith at moscow.com]

A friend sent me to look at Dale Courtney's take on the Wiccan Pentacle 
being allowed on cemetery markers for military veterans. As usual, 
Courtney got it wrong. What he shows in the graphic is a phoney Satanist 
ritual object, obtained in headshops by Gother-Than-Thou adolescents 
trying to shock their parents. I'm sure he did a lot of web-surfing to 
find this silly piece of trash.

The Wiccan Pentacle does not appear attched to a plastic skull, nor does 
it appear point down. It has nothing to do with devil worship (Wiccans 
don't even believe in the concept of the devil), fanged skulls, backwards 
prayers, and the rest of the crap Dale watches on late night cable tv. He 
should stop scaring himself. And Little Chris Whitmer best hope cemetery 
vandaliism is at an all time low, or the authorities will know where to 
look for a culprit...

Courtney seems to be an irresponsible hate-monger, and not much of a 
Christian. Juxtaposing this laughable and trashy bit of kitsch with an 
article about religious tolerence finally being awarded to a truly 
persecuted religious minority is amazing. It surely does not speak well 
of his own perceived victimization due to his religious beliefs, nor his 
wish to have redress. 

That image, of course, has nothing to do with the practice of Wicca, but 
fact has never loomed large on Courtney's horizon. Doesn't really matter, 
as those who take his BLog seriously already had their psuedo minds made 
up, and are willing to believe anything ugly about anyone not them. 
Everyone with a mind still open is just laughing at him...
