I do have a Master’s degree in English literature (something I don’t regard highly or flaunt) and I find great reason to call myself a post-modernist in a general, rather than particular sense. Some of what Foucault and Derrida have written against Western hegemony, Christianity and modernism is gold for our current movement of polytheism—I would encourage you to learn more. The newer generation of post-modernists has fewer things of value to offer, and some of it has gone too far. Nevertheless, I will say that “anti-racism, feminism, homophobia, transphobia, equality” are real concepts and concerns that can’t simply be dismissed, and I sympathize with all of them in different measures. There is a reason why everything exists as it does; there are root-causes that need to be carefully examined and addressed to avoid misunderstandings. And even though I am a cultural relativist who believes ancient polytheistic traditions should influence (more or less) our way of life, you won’t be able to apply it universally. This is why I advocate pluralism and plurality: If someone doesn’t like a particular community’s inner views (note the adjective), he has the right to leave to another which does. Any sort of “crusading” or aggressive expansion on either side should be prohibited. Imagine how much happier the world would have been if this were the case. However, I will strongly disagree with you if you are implying that racism should not be considered a huge sin. Race in America (and the New World in general) is especially a problem, for good reason. We shouldn’t think dismissively about minorities though, as if the face says everything—there is plenty of baggage associated with race and culture that is growing ever more complicated. We need to put ourselves in those people’s situation and treat them as we would be treated—a person whose ancestry is half European and half Sub-Saharan African thinks he is “Black” for a very particular reason well known to you (i.e. the one drop rule) and rejected by me. What if a Celtic group (for example) were to reject you upon learning you are 1/8 Native American for the same reason—wouldn’t it disturb you? True, you may pass entirely for a “Northern European” but some people have unreasonable standards…This problem needs to be resolved for all, preferably with common and fair principles: My point about the facial features was only part of what I believed regarding indigenous rediscovery and polytheism—the other parts you overlooked were the choices of siding with paternal ancestry for men and maternal ancestry for women in the case of mixed people who seek a permanent & dominant group to join and assimilate stably within. And this isn’t a prescription neither; it is only an earnest solution advanced with good will from an ethnically mixed person like myself who has felt only part of the instability that racially mixed people feel.
