Brendan in Toledo Writes on our Facebook Group:

Hey everyone, I just wanted to say that I love the show. I think you guys are doing a great thing and its refreshing to listen to a podcast that delves much deeper into topics concerning paganism than most, if not all, of the other pagan podcasts out there. You guys really know how to break apart a topic and get down to bone on issues that are really popular in the pagan community today. Anyways, keep up the great work. I’m looking forward to some new episodes.

paganspace, myspace, all the evil out there. People are trying to make a connection. Unfortunately, someone realized you can make money by doing this. So they let all the idiots in. Also, with all the various belief systems within the pagan “umbrella” there doesn’t appear to be any solid “moral” code. Yes, do what you will tho it harm none etc.. But nothing that is universally accepted. So is it no wonder paganspace and other derivatives thrive? As can be said of any religious belief system, it will always attract at least one idiot. Intelligent conversation, requires intelligent people. Unfortunately after looking through most of the “other” forums, it appears that your podcast has them all. 🙂
