[Artemisia] Religion in the SCA (a new can of worms)

[Tim Brunson]

HL Megen's perspective was the point I was trying to
make on my first posting. If you use a symbol with
religious connotations, someone may be offended or
made uncomfortable. As per another posting, wouldn't
it be better to just use tokens that have no religious
meaning and not offend anyone?

In a diverse group such as ours, sensitivity to others
is necessary.

At least that's my way of getting through this world.
