Another Groaner

Thursday October 25, 2007
Thanks to the Universioty Daily Kansan for informing us that Wicca (and its holidays) are far more ancient than Christianity- dating to 7500 BC, even. Or that an Esbat is held weekly on the full or new moon (huh?). This doesn't appear to be the interviewee's fault, as she appears to do her best to educate the reporter, who appears to have attempted some side research on her own, with disastrous results. At least there are no taod jokes.
