You know, not every interaction between two people needs to have a winner and a loser.

If we take the chip off our shoulder and cut people some slack, we can actually learn from each other.

Is that what the 'sacred circle' is all about - just a clique for like-minded people to get together and pick on everyone else?

That should be roles with a big plural I think, but the point is well taken. They always make you think even when it's uncomfortable. I love coyote.

Coyote is (among many other things) a trickster. The Sacred Clown is new to me though and I'm keen to hear a tale about that as well. I wonder if it might be somewhat similar to the Tarot's Fool.

An example of Sacred Clown -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heyoka

An example of Coyote --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coyote_...o_mythology%29

Among some peoples Coyote is replaced by Raven or Crow.

a question for you, who or what do you consider the one true God?...... you see among us who sit here in this sacred circle each have our own particular religion, non-belief, or culture, so we do not all believe the same, but the one common thing that we all have, we're all human beings.
