    <content type="html">I'm trying to not get all worked up about the hit piece in The Atlantic about Paganism. I'm coming down now. &lt;a href="https://wildhunt.org/2023/12/editorial-the-atlantic-publishes-another-attack-on-pagans-where-are-pagan-voices-in-its-pages.html"&gt;The Wild Hunt&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://www.patheos.com/blogs/panmankey/2023/12/the-return-of-the-pagan-scapegoats/"&gt;Jason Mankey&lt;/a&gt; both have good responses. FWIW, I plan on writing a &lt;a href="https://support.theatlantic.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011374674-Submit-a-Letter-To-The-Editor"&gt;letter to the editor&lt;/a&gt; politely (through gritted teeth) suggesting that they talk to actual Pagans about the religion. Here's the &lt;a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/the-return-of-the-pagans/ar-AA1m0hy5?ocid=msedgntp&amp;amp;cvid=7eefeae749b04a8bbfb8b4aeb1cf29ec&amp;amp;ei=26&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR3etVtVz8FRJ6gp87v_aWpkD9xSnWKX5Hn6NrXuOcQ0l_5GPe9S9eRjXmo"&gt;mirrored version&lt;/a&gt; of the tripe article on MSN if you don't want to give The Atlantic the attention.&amp;nbsp; He uses Pagan and Paganism as a pejorative for all he doesn't like in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=ivyskeep&amp;ditemid=24696" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
