Here we go again: David Brooks’s misuse of “paganism” as a cultural corruption

By Manny Moreno | May 4, 2025

In an age where religious minorities — especially Pagans — already face real marginalization, suspicion, and in some cases, violence, Brooks’s carelessness, and by proxy, The New York Times’s carelessness for publishing it with little editorial concern,  is irresponsible.

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Golden Black Cat Tarot,by Helena de Almeida, published by AGM-Urania/Konigsfurt-Urania Verlog GmbH

Card: Ten (10) of Pentacles

This week, there is likely to be an emphasis on financial security, family, traditions, and the culture they are derived from. Awareness of the importance of honesty and respect within relationships and familial structures is also likely to be a focal point. It may also signal that a project or body of work has reached a successful completion.

Conversely, the potential for reconsidering what is valued, as well as the actual emotional, mental, and spiritual price(s) of continually pursuing financial gains and wealth. There also exists the possibility of financial loss, and insecurity as it applies to family, finances, and relationships.
