Good answers folks, thanks for the input.
I met a fair number of folks who believed in "earth centered beliefs" at a UU congregation that I used to attend. I'm an atheist and lapsed Catholic but I really loved how so many people from different faith traditions would come together as a community to work towards social justice and peace. I also learned a lot from everyone, which is what I treasure the most.

I've posted this before, but it might hit a few new funnybones.

The difference between an atheist and an agnostic by example:

One of each comes across the burning bush.

The agnostic immediately starts looking for the audio playback device.

The atheist just left to get marshmallows.

If I came across a burning bush, regardless of whether or not it was talking my first impulse would be to put the fire out, then I would scold the "god" for starting a wildfire!

One of my oldest and closest friends is a priest in the O.T.O. I was never tempted to join because some of the people are really sketchy, plus there is a big one up culture. Also, it seemed like the whole order was set up just to give Crowley's' ego a posthumous stroking. I did read a lot of Crowley's writings though, and found them very fascinating. This fiend also introduced me to Chaos Magic which was much more up my alley. I tried it a several times with various interesting results.

Wings - I can’t take the blame for 2020, but I might have had a little something to do with Pluto being declassified as a planet.
At the Old Observatory in Greenwich, UK, they have a telescope pointing at Pluto. And you see this......

I didn't have a dog in that fight, animated or otherwise, until y'all picked the stupidest possible way to vote it out of the party.
