Petitions for Pagan Rights to Pres. Bush

Proclaimed by: Devi Spring - A WitchVox Sponsor
Proclaimed from: Toronto, Ontario

Proclamation...  Several petitions have been created addressing President Bush's and the current Administration's attitude towards Wicca and other NeoPagan religions. Especially in the current war time, and with the Pagan Headstone Campaign finally in a postion to make real progress for NeoPagan and Wiccan rights, these petitions are important.
To sign these petitions, please visit http://www.petitiononline.com/woab360/
and also
http://www.petitiononline.com/BR549/petition.html
Blessings, ~Devi~
The first petition reads:
To: George W. Bush To whom it may concern:
We, the undersigned wish for the following:
-for George W. Bush, who is president in 2005 to retract his statement "The military should rethink their position. ...[Wicca is] not a religion." on Good Morning America in 1999 AND
-Recognise Wicca as a true and valid religion as defined by national law AND
-To recognise that the main law of Wicca and many newer forms of Witchcraft being "These words thou shall fufill;/if it harm none, do as ye will" equates a right to be a conciencious objector for religious reasons AND
-To allow and employ a number of Champlains/Preists/Preistesses appropiate to the number of Wiccan soldiers. (One for every twelve.)
If there is no reaction by 2007, the creator of this petition will file a Civil Rights suit on grounds of:
-Discrimination on account of religion AND -Defamation
The second petition reads:
To: U S Congress We, the undersigned, would like to see a change in the way our government regards the Wiccan religion. While our Constitution insures the "Freedom of Religion", our current (and past, for that matter) administration does not recognize Wicca as a valid religion. We, as Wiccans, simply want our rights extended to us with the same respect that others are shown. Thank you for your time, and Blessed Be.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
