Fox News

**Merry Meet**

OK so I just recently saw the video about Fox News "bashing/ attacking" the pagan community. This has greatly offended the pagan community, and when you see the video you will understand why. I'm going to post the link before I continue with what my view is on the whole matter. So please watch before you continue reading...

Alright, so I totally understand why everyone is getting so upset at this. It is extremely offensive, when I saw it I did get upset about what was said. Now this is where a LOT of people are going to disagree with me... I think that the pagan community needs to seriously just let this one go. The "journalists" are CLEARLY  uneducated in the pagan lifestyle, why in the hell should we care what they have to say. Yes this can be miss-informing people that know nothing about paganism, but those people should be educated enough to actually do some research. The Fox News cast don't know what the hell they are talking about because they didn't bother to research or to talk to actual members of the pagan community. We don't have 20 holidays, we have 8.

There is a petition going around to have Fox News publicly apologize for what they said. JUST LET IT GO!!!!!! There is no guarantee that they will apologize, and we can't force the to. If it wasn't them bashing us, it would have just been someone else. We can't MAKE the world accept us. If we try to then we are no better than anyone else out there who tries to force people to acknowledge their religion and lifestyle. We can't make everyone that bashes us publicly apologize.

I think we need to not give a damn what people think of our lifestyle. I sure don't care what people think of mine. They haven't walked in my shoes or in my path so why would their opinion matter??

For those of you who have read this and decide you want to sign the petition, I will be including it in my blog, but I personally will not bother with it. There is no reason to, like I stated above, we can't force everyone who bashes us to apologize.

Hope that you all have had a super awesome day, and remember until someone has been in YOUR position, who cares what they say! :p
