Letters to the Editor: Paganism not as polite as it sounds


I am curious about something [Martori] wrote in [his] opinion editorial about pagans. Specifically, [he states]: "Alas, the downfall of the Pagans will be their good manners. To date, there have been no lawsuits for the promotion of Pagan values. Pagans don't whine, and in America the squeaky wheel gets the grease."

But earlier in the article [he wrote]: "Paganism embodies the type of values that America could use these days. For example, O'Laighlin said that her clan would not accept George W. Bush as a member. He does not meet their requirements of being honest, just, trustworthy and loyal. 'I want him to go down on Air Force One with the rest of his party,' she said."

Please explain: Since when does wishing death to our president, and all Republicans, constitute "good manners" or for that matter, anything good and decent? Wishing death to anyone is abominable and would never be considered "good manners" in my book.
