We're all so good at creating stereotypes of others :D If it's a mis-conception, I apologise on behalf of my fellow-Brits! I certainly have a fondness for all things Celtic, thanks to my Irish mother's love of her ancestral land (which I've inherited) and a feeling of kinship with my father's Welsh roots (which he doesn't really share). So I'm sure I'm as guilty as anyone else of romanticising the Celts. But I think throwing the Celtic/ancient British baby out with the romantic bathwater would be a mistake. Um, if any of that rambling makes any sense!Sophia Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00064236244570987053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569455421818333415.post-75323449787425054672011-08-06T02:33:14.530+01:002011-08-06T02:33:14.530+01:00"So when I hear English Pagans talking about ..."So when I hear English Pagans talking about how we've inherited all the lore/terminology we need from the Anglo-Saxons, probably in reaction against an American fondness for all things Celtic". There is one? As an American witch, I am amused and interested. There's always some sort or rebellion to practice.Sylvannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928028663255268616noreply@blogger.com
