- Vidarr's Shoe, Gus, you did rattle on a bit...

- A White-light-and-bunnies pagan is one who can't get a negative
- prognosis using runes for divination. (A practice which comes
- from a culture in which the fertility dieties are warlike and
- mean _probably_ has a few scary fates in the divination system
- somewhere.. :)

- I think what you're getting at is the myth of The One Truth; I've
- been saying less horrid things about it since realizing that I'm
- a one truthie about there not being one, but it still messes up
- large aspects of reality.
-
- What Fangorn told Merry and Pippin also has some relevance - 'Side?
- I am not altogether on anyone's side, because no one is entirely
- on mine'. This goes for the great majority of folks; fer'instance,
- I'm not a feminist, but I'm not opposed to the aims of some of those
- who call themselves feminists, nor am I existing in some state where
- the set of concepts I've incorporated into my world view is the
- set that does not include any feminist concepts.
-
- Hope you get *some* family Christmas...
