Description

This article is from the Paganism FAQ, by susanhk@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu (Susan Harwood Kaczmarczik) with numerous contributions by others.

27) I am a pagan and I think I am being discriminated against because of my religion. What should I do?

First of all, don't panic. Are you really being discriminated
against, or are things happening to you that would happen no matter
what your religious beliefs were? Not to belittle religious
discrimination because of course it happens, but you want to be sure
that's what is going on before you take measures based on that
assumption.

If, after looking at the situation objectively, you feel that you
are being treated the way you are *specifically because of your
religion*, then there are groups you can contact who specialize in
giving assistance in just this very thing. One is Circle Network,
whose address is given above. Another is AMER (Alliance of Magical
and Earth Religions), and they can be reached through Chris Carlisle
at C24884@wuvmd.wustl.edu, or from addresses on several hobbyist
networks including FIDONET as well.
