		<description>It does, and I appreciate your bothering to answer a personal question from a stranger.

Most modern &quot;Pagans&quot; don&#039;t really understand the fact that spirit and material aren&#039;t separate, or even what that statement would even mean, so I appreciate your sentiments.  Lost is the modern world in the perversion of logos.</description>

		<description>Hmm...That&#039;s a tough one. Like &quot;Christian&quot;, &quot;Pagan&quot; can mean so many things. In ancient Rome all it meant was &quot;the people&quot; -- the &lt;i&gt;pagani&lt;/i&gt;/&lt;i&gt;paganus&lt;/i&gt;. Common folk -- the rural peasantry, etc., etc. There was certainly a connection here to living on the land, and being deeply connected to it. Though I am connected deeply to the living, I experience the same disfunctional alienation from &quot;nature&quot; that everybody living in the modern world does. In that sense few who claim to be Pagans these days really are.

I&#039;m a vitalist. Vitalism has some sympathies with animism, and even the modern European use of that word can be see as diverting from the Christian paradigm. And as sort of Pagan. In a way, after the fall of Rome, all secular philosophy, popular culture, common wisdom and general appreciation of the vital, living spirit of the Earth can be seen as Pagan.

Does that answer your question?</description>

		<description>Sorry I would have emailed you this link but couldn&#039;t find your email address.

I thought that you may be interested to know
that there is a forum devoted to syncromysticism. You would be a welcome addition to our group.  Please check out the syncromystic forum here at

http://synchromysticismforum.com/index.php

I think you will find many people would be interested in your ideas and comments.

The people on the forum are some of the most accepting people I have ever met on a forum.  We are looking for more people to join in our discussions about the current reality we live in.  Some of the post deal with Spirituality, Esoteric, Occult, Synchronicity and conspiracy.  We have a wide range of discussions that equal some of the most thought provoking ideas I have yet to discover on the web yet. The forum is devoted to finding real TRUTH.

Many of the forum members have blogs,  books or have regular web shows devoted to spreading the information we are interested in.

I hope to see you post sometime.

		<description>Thanks, bro. You&#039;re too kind. I&#039;d wish you a white &quot;crassmass&quot;, but that seems highly unlikely. So I&#039;ll just say happy holidays and all the best for 2009...</description>
