Book excerpt: Paganistan - a moniker adapted by the Twin Cities Contemporary Pagan community - is the title of a history and ethnography of a regionally unique, urban, and vibrant community in Minnesota. The story of the community traces the formation of some of the earliest organizations and churches in the US, the influence of publication houses and bookstores, the marketplace, and the local University, on the growth and sustenance of a distinct Pagan community identity, as well as discussions of the patterns of diversifying and cohesion that occur as a result of societal pressure, politics, and generational growth within it. As the first ever study of this long-lived community, this book sets out to document Paganistan as another aspect of the increasing prevalence of Paganism in the US and contributes to the discussion of the formation of new American religious communities. Revealing how canonical theories about community formation in anthropology do not always fit comfortably nor accurately describe how a vibrant Pagan community creates and sustains itself, this book will be of interest to scholars of religion and new religious movements worldwide, and offers a valuable contribution to discussions within both urban anthropology and sociology.

Book excerpt: Contemporary Paganism is a movement that is still young and establishing its identity and place on the global religious landscape. The members of the movement are simultaneously growing, unifying, and maintaining its characteristic diversity of traditions, identities, and rituals. The modern Pagan movement has had a restless formation period but has also been the catalyst for some of the most innovative religious expressions, praxis, theologies, and communities. As Contemporary Paganism continues to grow and mature, new angles of inquiry about it have emerged and are explored in this collection. This examination and study of contemporary Paganism contributes new ways to observe and examine other religions, where innovations, paradoxes, and inconsistencies can be more accurately documented and explained.

What you'll find instead is a collection - more than three decades in the making - of seasonal and regional foods for celebration and mindful eating from the Land of Sky Waters: Cinnamon Wild Rice Pudding, Pesto delle Streghe (the "pesto of the witches"), and what may well be the world's oldest Yule recipe. Plus tales and wisdom from living Midwest Pagan tradition, including a breathtaking repertoire of natural dyestocks for the most beautiful Ostara eggs ever. Poet, scholar and storyteller Steven Posch came to Paganistan in 1979 and by sheer dint of personality has become one of the Twin Cites' foremost men-in-black. Historian and ethicist Magenta Griffith fell in love with Minnehaha Falls at first sight and has lived here ever since.(And yes, the name is from Rocky Horror.) Paganistan is the Secret Witch Name of Minneapolis-St. Paul and the 13 surrounding counties. (But don't tell anyone we told you so.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where is peace and joy in this hour in time? What is safe to seek and find? Why is every worthy thought, word, and deed so difficult to sustain? What is absolute? Why is the media, the Church, the arts and entertainment, business, religions, the family, education, and the government so chaotic? Who is in charge? Jezebel is. Why? Because God's people are silent. The original Jezebel lived in the ninth century B.C. as queen and wife of the dissenting King Ahab. Her pagan ways linger into every generation, hovering over everything father and mother, pastor, educator, and government. Few are spared her intrusions, especially the highly educated who lean on their own knowledge, those in positions of authority and power, and those practicing spiritism. Jezebel threatens every body, mind, and spirit, even the best of Christians, placing residency in Heaven at stake. It is time to come against what comes against God's very good people. She intimidates in order to manipulate, in order to dominate. Identify her powers and principalities, her philosophies and practices within secular humanism, Eastern mysticism, and the occult. Warriors against Jezebel are taught, led, comforted, guided, and protected by the Holy Spirit of God, who provides the strategies and powerful weapons to use in this spiritual battle. Be assured, those aware of the differences between Jezebel's ways and God's order win the war. The Satan-Jezebel-spirit uses terrorism to cause fear and submission. It is Satan at work with his original intent to be like God-in charge. Fight! Stop this evil! Where to start? Start with the heart, where God's Truth is written. The joy of the Lord is your strength. The war is worthy. In faith, hope and love, proceed to the frontlines to fight for and uphold the Absolute Truth. "Jezebel, we know where you are." Learn what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the worthless ways of dissenters. "See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ" (Colossians 2:8)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even in pagan antiquity, there were those who, while participating in the community's religious life, did not believe in literal gods. In the centuries that followed the Christian domination of the West, the epithet "godless pagan" was leveled at a wide variety of people. In the 1960s, there emerged a community of people who sought to reclaim the name "pagan" from its history of opprobrium. These Neo-Pagans were interested in nature spirituality and polytheism, and identified with the misunderstood and persecuted pagans of antiquity. While many Pagans today believe in literal gods, there are a growing number of Pagans who are "godless." Today, the diverse assemblage of spiritual paths known as Paganism includes atheist Pagans or Atheopagans, Humanistic and Naturalistic Pagans, Buddho-Pagans, animists, pantheists, Gaians, and other non-theistic Pagans. Here, their voices are gathered together to share what it means to be Pagan and godless.

Now Rudi is Artos, the High King of Montival, and his final destiny awaits him. He must face and defeat the forces of the Church Universal and Triumphant. Everything in the present, everything in the future, depends on the outcome of the conflict. And like his father before him, Rudi knows that in winning the war he might well lose his life...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This offbeat slice of American history places the story of our great republic beneath an unexpected lens: that of fringe candidates for president of the United States. Mark Stein explores how their quest for our nation’s highest office helped to amplify voices otherwise quashed during their day. His careening tour through elections past includes the efforts of true pioneers in the quest for social equality in our country: the first woman to run for president, Victoria Woodhull in 1872; the first African American to run for president, George E. Taylor in 1904; and the first openly gay cross-dressing candidate for president, Joan Jett Blakk in 1992. But The Presidential Fringe also takes a look at those who would jest their way into the Oval Office, from comedians such as Will Rogers and Gracie Allen to Pat Paulsen and Stephen Colbert. Along the way, Stein shows how even seemingly zany candidates, such as “Live Forever” Jones, Vegetarian Party candidate John Maxwell, Flying Saucer Party candidate Gabriel Green, or, most recently, Vermin Supreme, provide extraordinary insights of clarity into who we were when they ran for president and how we became who we are today. Ultimately, Stein’s examination reveals that it was often precisely these fringe candidates who planted the seeds from which mainstream candidates later harvested genuine, positive change. Written in Stein’s direct and witty style, The Presidential Fringe surveys and portrays an American landscape rife with the unlikely, unassuming, unexpected, and (in a few cases) unbalanced presidential hopefuls who, in their own way, have contributed to this nation’s founding quest to form a more perfect Union.
