Naturalistic Paganism
Happy Darwin Day
Today is Darwin Day. This commemorates the birthday of the one who contributed the theory of natural selection to our understanding of evolution, Charles Darwin.
Many Humanists and others celebrate this day with workshops, art contests, protests, or dinner parties serving “primordial soup.”
Darwin Day is featured by the Secular Seasons project, an interesting effort to compile holidays for the non-religious – worth checking out!
And be sure to check for Darwin Day Events in your local area.
So, enjoy your Darwin Day, and go eat some primordial soup!
What is HumanisticPaganism? (2.0)*
Ours is a path both inspiring and, to the best of human ability, true.
– composed by B. T. Newberg with help from Jon Cleland Host and members of the Naturalistic Paganism yahoo group.
Ours is a naturalistic path rooted in ancient Paganism and contemporary science.
This path integrates mythic, meditative, and ritual practices with a worldview based on the current most compelling scientific evidence.
How do you like the site’s new look?
There was an error in yesterday’s article “HP: Our maturing tree.” The poll, which was supposed to ask about the site’s new look, accidentally got replaced with a different poll about upcoming posts. Apologies. Here, now, is the correct poll. Thank you for your patience.
Please rate the new look from 1 (worst) to 5 (best).
HP: Our maturing tree
Like a maturing tree, HP is changing shape.
– by B. T. Newberg
You know how a young sapling changes as it matures through its life cycle? HP is experiencing something like that. Our bark, our roots, and our whole internal structure is changing.
Our look has changed, including a new WordPress theme as well as an original logo designed by artist Bryan Beard. What do you think? Let us know in the poll below!
But the new look is only the outer bark in this extended metaphor. It’s meant to reflect a whole new attitude. After putting down roots for the first two years, we’re now in a position to grow some new branches.
