Wow! I followed you back to your LJ from bard_slash because of your Touga/Saionji icon and I find all sorts of interesting stuff. Nice.
I'm what holier-than-thou Neo-pagans tend to call a magpie--an eclectic polytheist--so I never speak with much authority on this kind of thing (safer that way). That said, $RW has some serious issues with history. Infamously so. By her reasoning, pretty well everything can be traced back to some mythological and perfect goddess-based prehistoric religion which only she (conveniently) seems to know all the ins and outs of. I bought her Angel Magick book on a whim once because it was on sale (studying angel/demonology is one of my hobbies), and it was laughably awful. I had to stop when she started raving about how the archangels are all Christian-twisted archetypes ripped off from forgotten gods in "the old religion." Ack.
Anyway. All I really meant to say was: I think I'll friend you if you don't mind! =D
