		<title>Pagan Community Notes: Cherry Hill Seminary, Pagans at Langley, PaganSpace, and More!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Pagan Community Notes is a companion to my usual Pagan News of Note series, more focused on news originating from within the Pagan community. I want to reinforce the idea that what happens to and within our organizations, groups, and events is news, and news-worthy. My hope is that more individuals, especially those working within Pagan organizations, get into [...]]]></description>

Joyner, which ultimately ruled that opening invocations and prayers before government [...]]]></description>

In Weiner&#8217;s new book, &#8220;Man Seeks God: My Flirtations with the Divine,&#8221; he engages with a number of different religious traditions in order &#8220;to better understand faith, and to find the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Religious Materials Debate Continues in Buncombe County</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past December, North Carolina Pagan Ginger Strivelli challenged her child’s school’s policy regarding the distribution of religious materials. Strivelli felt that the manner in which Gideon Bibles were made available violated the Establishment Clause, and ostracized non-Christian students who didn’t want to use a special break to obtain a Bible.
