| 28 May 2000 | John Teall | by pagan (the pagani were actualy an italian hill tribe if i recall corectly) i'm imagining you're refering to what the celts (and their druidic spiritual leaders) called the tir nan og - although you do give the name summer lands - which i don't entirely place - this as hardly surprising as i'm far far from being any sort of authority - just a goofy guy who reads a lot ... but i like the name and i think it is perhaps fitting ... ~  | |
| 30 May 2000 | Artist | Yes if following the celtic lore Tir na nog would be correct. However , the word Pagan is not the italian tribe Pagani, By refering to the word pagan I meant( Witch). Pagans were among the first to have a belief system in the "Old days". Pagans were refered to as "Hethans and heretics" by the church. In the Pagan community many call their form of heaven "the summerlands". A form of eternal utopia. | |
| 10 Aug 2000 | Artist | Uh, Maxwell. I would watch out who I call dumbass hun because you can't even spell it. Not to be rude. but you really don't need to call people names because they don't understand something. People learn new things everyday. So try and be nice okay. | |
| 10 Aug 2000 | Maxwell | Yeah , man . Even i know what pagan is. Ignore him amber he don't know nothin. he is just a dumass. | |
| 11 Aug 2000 | John Teall | mmmm - well - contrary to 'max's' appearent assumption i was certainly not intending to be offensive (which is i hope fairly obvious) - hopefully someday he well grow to realize that there is more to everything then any of us see when we look at it however closely or however many times - genuine and abiding spirituality can be found in vertualy every system of belief - which is the whole point - no one's well being benifits from the desire of one human being to dictate the perceptions of another - though i am not unfamiliar with many uses of the word 'pagan' i remain ignorant of the existence of any SINGLE system of belief to which it refers uniquely ... all to often it is used by monothiests as a generic term for polythiests - all to often disparagingly much as they would use the word cult - whose origen i understand be the word occult which simply means hidden as when the moon is occluded by an eclips - though what they usualy mean by doing so is any system of belief they don't personaly happen to like - all of wich has very little to do with this sweet wonderful immage ... ~  | |
| 15 Sep 2000 | Dick Thoren | I would like to read the story, I got intrigued (is this the right word and if so right spelled?) by your pictures. Both this one and the next one of Lady Aislin, shows a lovely woman, but, like Raymond says, still very normal. So regards from a pagan Swede. | |
| 22 Oct 2005 | Eddie | Elfwood artist: John Teall - He knows Jack about paganism if he reads a lot then maybe he should progress a bit beyond Humpty Dumpty and try reading something a little more enlightening. Italian Hill Tribe!!! - What A Muppet. | |
