My alleged "rant" about how "intolerant fools" at the Unitarian Church of Montreal have repeatedly misused and abused the Canadian Criminal Code and Montreal city bylaws in outrageously hypocritical attempts to censor and suppress my peaceful public protest against U*U anti-religious intolerance and bigotry was thus by no means only "tangentially connected to the subject at hand". As my follow-up comment to the original comment that you "memory-holed" says, there are "some very clear parallels between what happened in Salem and what Montreal Unitarian U*Us have been doing for years." My "rant" was very much on topic to the serious issues raised in this blog post. In fact the highly questionable, and now repeated. . . misuse and abuse of the Canadian Criminal Code by Montreal Unitarians is arguably a worse case of misuse of the law (aka malicious prosecution) to attempt to suppress constitutionally guaranteed rights to freedom of speech and peaceful public protest than what happened in Salem. That is my final word here unless you choose to contest it but I believe that it should be public so that your readers can make up their minds about this matter rather than privately sent in an email.

It doesn't matter if you mention Pagans or not, I am telling you that this isn't the forum for discussion of your ongoing conflict.<br/><br/>I have let you plant links to your web site on several posts for anyone interested to follow, but I draw the line at rants only tangentially connected to the subject at hand. Which is why I deleted your post. Not to throw your conflict down the "memory hole". <br/><br/>If you want to continue this conversation, e-mail me privately. Robin,

I have told you on more than one occasion that this web site isn’t a forum for you to detail your troubles with the Montreal UUs. It doesn’t matter if you mention Pagans or not, I am telling you that this isn’t the forum for discussion of your ongoing conflict.

I made it quite clear in my comment that pagans, U*U pagans and otherwise, have been subjected to similar anti-religious intolerance and bigotry by "Humanist" Unitarian*Universalists. One thing I did not say but which is also pertinent here is that Creation Day, the inter-religious celebration of Creation, that Rev. Ray Drennan and other "Humanist" leaders of the Unitarian Church of Montreal falsely and maliciously labeled as a "cult", had very strong participation from the Montreal Pagan Grove. Although Montreal pagans were initially wary of participating in an inter-religious event with Christians and Muslims etc. and vice versa. . . the Montreal Pagan Grove did decide to participate and peformed a complete Circle of Power ritual in full view of all other participants except those who walked out of the church or hid in the kitchen. ;-) And please don’t try to argue that there was no connection with paganism in my comment.
