Has anyone planned a pagan naked summer solstice ride yet?

I'm in.

And Pagan atheists.

How can anyone be a Pagan atheist?? Isn't that like saying a Catholic atheist or something?

signed,
an atheist.

we're a bunch of godless lesbian witches? Awesome! I find it so tedious to deal with the right wingers... am I being inflammatory now?

Well, just to be fair- there are plenty of tedious left wingers around too.

And lots of boisterous righters.

Professional Grammar Grinch here!!!

No Fragments pleas.

I have my mail set to tell me whenever "dahon" shows up, and it got me to a "bicycling"forum that reminded me very, very much of a high school boys' athletic gathering. Trash talk and lovely pictures were their idea of a good time (nothing past a PG rating but completely sexist attitude & conversation). Reckon they'd be awfully bored here... I didn't stick around.

Here, on the other hand, my goal is to convert all these pagan Diva-cup worshippers to... oh, I keep forgetting...

Sometimes a very small group can change (for better or worse) the whole flavor of a forum. I love doing that

I'm trying to wrap my head around the idea of riding a bike nekkid! I don't mind being nekkid...I just can't imagine what sitting on the seat would feel like.

That's the true test of a comfortable seat!

I wonder what the LBS would say if I showed up to test out seats that way.

[Geonz]

Snork... They'd love it. Talk about it for years. I can hear 'em now... let's form a posse and show up on nekkid bike ride day

But for a bunch of godless pagan atheist unitarian-jihadists, an awful lot of things like prayers happen around here!

[Possegal]

let's form a posse and show up on nekkid bike ride day

wait a second, i don't do nekkid

[mimitabby]

You guys are clearly not from around here.


dang, i can't put the link down, my company won't let me access it.

google fremont parade or fremont fair.

we have a parade every year which has nude cyclists in it.


I'm a pagan heathen. Neither word originally meant anything bad.
Heathen = from the heath, country person

Pagan = outsider or hick

Well I for one am not godless.

I have accepted the Pillsbury Doughboy as my personal saviour.

Ooooh, you're one of those Canoodian or Yuropeen Doughboy worshipers.

[RoadRaven]

Isn't godless & pagan an oxymoron? I don't know that much about paganism, though, so I could be wrong, but I thought there were many pagan gods & godesses?

A godless pagan is just an elitist statement inferring that because one person doesn't believe in a particular god, any gods they do believe in are redundant and wrong... (of course, in the context of this thread, I do realise it was originally a statement made tongue in cheek )

Yes, many gods an goddesses depending on which "pagan" you are talking about.

For pagans branded as witches by the middle-ages (a "habit" which has continued down the generations as witches are neither magical nor evil, but simply those in touch with the natural world), there are not really a plethora of gods and goddesses, but rather one god and goddess who work in equality, or a goddess and her male "consort". (It is also interesting to note that not all 'modern-day' witches believe in a supernatural being and are, by that definition, atheists!)

Pagans are also very tolerant of "other" deities, and accept that in the end, every one's 'god' does the same job -just in different ways...

I would just like to point out that said doughboy IS nekkid except for the tie, hat, and the single glove... mit... thing.

This was a long time ago now, and has been discussed a couple of times already. Hey don't take this the wrong way, -but speaking of great and positive forums, perhaps it's time to move forward from it?

I belong to another sport forum too (not biking) and let me tell you it's a JUNGLE out there!

I agree. Let's keep it the way we described it when this thread was started.
