They seemed such a normal couple - until they built a pagan stone circle in the garden...

You'd think milkmen would be used to pre-dawn doorstep encounters with all manner of 'unconventional' folk, wouldn't you? Well, not in leafy Dorchester.

Couldn’t be any worse than when I lived across the street from a pentacostal church.

Ask the lady of the house if I can have a broom like hers.

Ask the people in Chappaqua, NY.

Better keep an eye on small children and the pets.

Do NOT want to see them “sky-clad”.

The woman is full of crap or insane. Perhaps she is a bit of both.

that’s a ridiculous statement

Pentecostals are maybe the most dependable conservative bloc in our nation.

Very true. Only Mormons are more GOP. Even (via anecdotal evidence) Hispanic Pentecostals lean GOP.

I am not Pentecostal and have some hesitation about speaking in tongues but their beliefs and support of traditional American culture and values are staunch.

Mormons sorta slipped this year in Utah....probably sore over the Romney passover,

Grandmother Suky Burton roars with laughter as she remembers the day she and the man who delivers the pints locked eyes in a moonlit driveway.

'It was the early hours and I'd been to a ceremony at Stonehenge. Normally, I'd change out of my robes before coming home, but it was cold, so I didn't bother.

The milkman took one terrified look at me and scuttled off to his milk float as fast as his legs could carry him. I've never seen one of those vehicles move so quickly. He'd obviously never seen a witch before.'

This story reveals some stunning facts. Just think about it: in this modern era they actually still deliver milk to homes in Britain!!!

I would sleep better at night knowing I lived next door to whackos who played at rocks in their backyard than Muslims who spouse taqiyya and might attack at any moment or who support those who would.

My ex turned Wiccan shortly after we split up. She's a loon.

I keep tellin’ y’all: “It don’t take all kinds, we just got all kinds.”

Buddy of mine in high school was 7th-Day Adventist. Also the minister’s son, and a sore trial he was to his family.

Some of the stories he told were pretty outrageous, but I always took them with a barrel of salt, as he was outrageous most of the time.

I also spent some time in the SCA, with pagans and such as friends, and quite a few of the SCA folks, and not just the pagans, loved to do what they called “freaking the mundanes.” I’ll let you guess... ;)

I lived a block away from a Pentacostal church but I could still hear them. I lived directly across the street from the Spanish Methodist Church and didn’t hear a thing.
