I just noticed this post at Jenica's excellent site:
An Indianapolis father is appealing a Marion County judge's unusual order that prohibits him and his ex-wife from exposing their child to "non-mainstream religious beliefs and rituals...How bizzare for someone raised in a Scots household with all our wee strange voodooistic, trolls under bridges, knock on wood to wake the tree spirits of good will, changling and selkie believing, spin all the clocks at New Years habits. For we Scots Presbyterianism (and lesser forms of organized faith) is like clothing - underneath we are all pagan and want to see the burning wheel roll into the sea each fall. We pour whisky on friends' graves for God's sake!"This was done without either of us requesting it and at the judge’s whim," said Jones, who has organized Pagan Pride Day events in Indianapolis. "It is upsetting to our son that he cannot celebrate holidays with us, including Yule, which is winter solstice, and Ostara, which is the spring equinox."
"Mainstream" aw sounds verrrry suth o' Grenta tae me, ye ken.
