Somebody got confused and shelved it with coincedence, and nobody's been able to find it since.

so i recounted an article i read in a post that details how unrelated professors came to the conclusion that this one english nudist guy into the occult totally created the popular pagan religion, wicca, making up all the historical stuff in the process . . . a christian designed paganism
i was called an ignorant intellectual for it . . . shit, i thought i just liked dark irony? (maybe its been redefined?) |
