Witches For Cindy Sheehan!
Now that I have your attention, I would like to direct you to a FINE post over in the Ancient Wisdom and Pagan Spirituality Group. It's entitled Cindy Sheehan Embodies The Wrath of Demeter.

DUer Hekate posts: "her child has been ripped from her by Death, but instead of taking up weapons herself, she is sitting by Zeus's gates and demanding that she be seen and heard."

It's well worth a read and it would be nice to be able to recommend it for the Greatest page.

3. What?
I guess we witches haven't been posting here as much as we should, eh?

Thanks to the OP for pointing out what should have been obvious to any of us who follow God/dess based religions. This is 100% Demeter.

12. Actually, I Really Wish Witches Would Add Their Perspective On A LOT
of issues here on DU. Or at least let us know how the Wiccan worldview influences ones politics etc.

IMO, It'd be very informative for DU'ers to be exposed to how Wicca, Paganism etc. color our compatriot's views.

8. Northern New York Pagan here
Blessed Be Cindy and remain strong. All positive energy to her and anyone else able to show up. Actually, and I'm sure this is a no duh statement but, we that do believe in magick need to be casting protections in their direction by the thousands.:hippie:

9. I thought it was the womens group in the title
In 1968, a group of radical politically active women formed a protest organization in the City of New York called W.I.T.C.H., standing for "Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy From Hell".
