New Moon on Monday
The Revealer covers a religion story in pretty much the fashion I would have, so I’ll just point you to it and leave you with a money quote about a Christian who wants every new moon off work.
“Nearly 10,000 religions have been identified worldwide. Sociologists estimate new ones spring up at the rate of two per day. The majority of governments in Canada — federal and provincial — list upwards of 60 as protected creeds, from Christianity, Judaism and Islam, through Buddhism, native spiritualism, Sikhism and Unitarian-Universalism. Even Neo-Paganism and Wicca are protected in most provinces. Ontario goes so far as to safeguard “non-deistic bodies of faith” provided the “beliefs and practices” they maintain “are sincerely held and/or observed.” – The National Post
Those Canadians! Neo-Paganism on equal footing with Christianity! A Planet where apes evolved from man! Shocks abound!
