Why would some of the members of the best educated, most materially comfortable generation of Americans look back to mystical traditions many millennia old? During the last few decades, millions of people have embraced ancient philosophies that honor Earth and the spiritual power of each individual. Ways of worship from sources as diverse as the pre-Christian Celts, ancient Egypt, and Native American traditions are currently helping their followers find meaning in life while living in the Information Age. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this book Pagan leaders and teachers describe in their own words what they believe and what they practice. From Margot Adler, an NPR reporter and author of \u003ci\u003eDrawing Down the Moon\u003c\/i\u003e, to Isaac Bonewits, ArchDruid and founder of a modern neo-Druidic organization, those interviewed in this book express the rich diversity of modern Paganism. Hopman's insightful questions draw on her own experiences as a Pagan and Druid as well as on her extensive research. With coauthor Lawrence Bond, she examines how Pagans address such issues as parenting, organized religion, and politics. The resulting dialogues illuminate the modern Pagan revival.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ellen Evert Hopman, Lawrence Bond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0892819049\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780892819041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Destiny Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.04w x 0.99d","brand":"Ellen Evert Hopman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44598259646719,"sku":"9780892819041","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2218caef-3507-4409-9577-bd3ca89ea56a.jpg?v=1702381498","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/being-a-pagan-ellen-evert-hopman-9780892819041","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
