Blogging Questions for Devotional Polytheists
The whole argument between Devotional “Hard” Polytheists (who are often, but not always Reconstructionists, Pagan or otherwise) and Archetypalist “Soft” Polytheists (who are often, but not always Neo-Pagans, Wiccanate or otherwise) continues on, and I couldn’t keep up with it if I tried, though I do have my opinions on it all.
Here Galina Krasskova takes a very necessary break to re-focus on what it is we DO value instead of arguing over what we find problematic.
I am looking forward to reading as folks post their answers. I appreciate the prompt and may answer some of them here myself. 🙂
