AAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUGH

I think fate is toying with me.

Okay, so I meet another human that looks like he & his wife might be worthwhile friends, and then I go to ZGeek and read this.

A bit of an excerpt:

"An Indianapolis father is appealing a Marion County judge's unusual order that prohibits him and his ex-wife from exposing their child to "non-mainstream religious beliefs and rituals."

The parents practice Wicca, a contemporary pagan religion that emphasizes a balance in nature and reverence for the earth.

Cale J. Bradford, chief judge of the Marion Superior Court, kept the unusual provision in the couple's divorce decree last year over their fierce objections, court records show. The order does not define a mainstream religion.

Bradford refused to remove the provision after the 9-year-old boy's outraged parents, Thomas E. Jones Jr. and his ex-wife, Tammie U. Bristol, protested last fall."

What the hell??!! What country do I live in again? Let's all make as big a stink about this as possible. I'd LOVE to test the people that lately have been screaming about "activist judges" be forced to either call THIS judge an activist and support the wiccan parents, or reveal themselves to be total hypocrites.
