Pagans around New England need to come out of the "broom closet."
That's the mantra of Eastern Mass Pagan Pride, an organization which strives to promote pagan education, understanding and unity. The group took another step toward that goal yesterday at "Eastern Mass Pagan Pride Day," a festival at Bradley Palmer State Park in Topsfield. It was a day for pagans of all sorts to come out, celebrate their culture and beliefs and dispel some of the misconceptions about the group that has seeped into the mainstream psyche. No, Wiccans don't worship the devil.
