A Perceptive Note
Chas Clifton makes a perceptive point after listening to the NPR spot on Wiccans.
“A thought struck me: Is Wicca still the only religion that requires a rebuttal? In this case, Bradley Hagerty goes to some teens at some big evangelical church in Colorado Springs for quotes about falling into Satan’s clutches and that sort of thing.”
Something for people who bemoan the unfair coverage of Evangelicals to keep in mind. While conservative Christians may be covered in the press with mocking or a lack of depth at times (something Wiccans and other pagan religions suffer all the time), it’s a rare thing indeed for a Christian of any stripe to get a quote from say an expert on cults or a competing religious faith after the interview.
One response so far
…unless science or Constitutional atheism can be called competing “secular religions”.
