They Make Me Proud…

It’s been several years now since I left the faculty of Cherry Hill Seminary. Many things have changed since I was last affiliated with the school–the first Pagan clergy training school in the modern world to offer graduate-level courses.

But as someone who passionately supports equality for same-gender couples, I’m very pleased with the speed of their response to this week’s disappointing California decision on Proposition 8.

They’re making me proud…

Cherry Hill Seminary Responds to Same-Sex Marriage Debate

COLUMBIA, SC — Cherry Hill Seminary students and faculty are representative of the range of human sexual diversity. They minister to communities which include many same-sex couples.

As Pagans, we embrace all forms of consensual adult sexual expression and relationships. We recognize sexuality as a sacred and spiritual force and, therefore, support legal, social and spiritual recognition of these relationships.

While not unique, this is an encouragingly clear statement of principle. I look forward to being made as proud, in time, by still more groups, both Pagan and Quaker.
