As I said over at Atheists’ Heaven, “I think that’s exactly what is, a religion ... then again I don’t think that’s the issue. I think the real issue is whether or not we should be giving what are, effectively, businesses state mandated charitable status unless it can be properly demonstrated that they actually do good “charitable” work.”
To the Druids, what they do, practice, and believe is a religion. I don’t know if they do charitable work or not, but some believe they do good with their religion. I had a friend who was a druid priest and he loved it as much as anyone else loves their religion and tried to teach me about it. Their worship surrounds nature, which is interesting, but I don’t know what else they do, even though he tried to teach me about the religion. He was less offended then others when I told him that I’m a humanist. Wiccans, Druids, Pagans, etc are rather cool in that respect. They don’t seem to get offended as easily as Xians seem to when you tell them you’re not a believer. Just in that one respect alone, I think they are doing society a favour.

Yeah, I’m fine with the Druids, the Wiccans, and the other assorted fluffy-bunnies. They neither break my leg nor pick my pocket. I reserve the bulk of my spleen
for the Abrahamic religions.

Druids and Wiccans are not a threat are they…
It’s the idea that one group is right and everyone else is going to suffer because of it I suppose.
Gosh, what folly… imagine worshiping the sun, from whence all this came and which keeps it living with it’s rays of energy
Or, the planet Earth as some sort of nurturing mother, womb of humanity, supplying needs and comfort.
lordie, lordie the things people get into their heads
