It gets worse the more you look into it. Bennison won't be able to hide what all is out there on the web. Those two are practicing Druids. Here's one article, and try following the links in it: Oakwyse & Glispa .

Excerpt: "The readers of the Rev. Kendall Harmon's blog Titusonenine have been hard at work, and have established that the "Rev." Glyn Ruppe-Melnyk did not plagiarize the neopagan "Women's Eucharist" from the Druid site Tuathe de Brighid and the author "Glispa." That's because she is the Druid author. Here's the connection, courtesy of "Nicholas":

Okay I’m convinced now. I did find the link via the husband. This link identifies the druid "Oakwyse" as being Bill Melnyk. This one identifies Bill Melnyk and Glyn Ruppe-Melnyk as a couple. This one links the two again and gives Melnyk’s email address as being oakwyse at aol dot com. And several links such as this one link Oakwyse and Glispa."

I followed some links it gets....amazing. Like this: are practicing Druids. Here's one article, and try following the links in it: Oakwyse & Glispa .

I followed some links it gets....amazing. Like this: Scared Druid.

Excerpt:

"By the way
… Bill Melnyk, the Episcopal priest who goes by the name OakWyse when he's a "Druid" or "Wiccan" priest, is apparently concerned that news about his activities has leaked out. A frantic message appeared on the Druidry.org message board today (registration is now required, but the message may no longer be there). No proof that Melnyk is actually the author, but here it is:

My Dear Friends—
Raven [apparently Glyn Lorraine Ruppe Melnyk, the Episcopal rector and author of the "Women's Eucharist"] and I have come under vicious attack from Anglican fundamentalists re our connection to druidry. Hour by hour the attacks are spreading on fundamentalist BLOGs across the country. For our protection, we must end all internet connection as soon as possible.
I ask Kernos to leave this one notice up for a day or two, but then to do a universal delete of all references to Druis. Please delete my membership. I cannot stress how serious this is. If you respond, please do not use my name in your response.
I will not be posting again.
You can see a summary of the issue at www.christianitytoday.com
Kernos - the polls will take care of themselves—please note the winners when they are over.
Peace to all. Pray for us.
Druis

Pray for them, indeed."
