Peace Park To Hold Pagan Pride Day
Author: Alexandria Seay Source: The Maneater Student Newspaper (MI)
Title: PEACE PARK TO HOLD PAGAN PRIDE DAY
The Center Project hosted the Mid-Missouri Pagan Pride Inc. Divination Dinner July 31 to raise money for Pagan Pride Day, which will take place in Peace Park Sep. 27.
"Paganism is an umbrella term for all nature-based religions," said Rose Wise, the high priestess from Ozark Avalon Church.
Ozark Avalon, along with the MU Multicultural Center and River and Joyce Higginbotham, are sponsors for both events. Money from the dinner is going toward entertainment, insurance and equipment for Pagan Pride Day.

It isn't a minor quibble. It is a major one. In stating that paganism is a collection of nature-based faiths, the speaker has rather arrogantly decided that hundreds (if not thousands) of faiths (ancient and modern) are not pagan.

Perhaps paganism is instead an umbrella term for MOST nature-based SPIRITUALITIES? Now that would be intellectually honest. But when a given spokesperson is HP or pastor of some sort of pagan 'church,' it's natural for the truth to be slightly skewed in their favor.

From the look of the heading, this event is going to take place in my home state of Michigan (MI) , but, if you read the article, it will be in Missouri.
