Kevy, I'm going to argue against you, an unusual thing for me indeed.

I liken the comparison of Christianity today to the the crusades as something like being critical of white southerners today because there was slavery in the south 150 years ago. The southerners today don't own slaves. Christians today didn't go on crusades. This is about what is happening now in the current world climate.

As far as ostracism....I'll just have to take your word for it, as I'm not a Pagan so I would not have experienced it. I don't doubt it. Church would be great if it weren't for the people.

Edited to add: Christians often ostracize there own. I, sadly, have been on both sides of that, to my embarrassment and shame.
