Reverence for nature exists by itself for many people - who don't need to join or cult, sect or religion to pursue it.


Indeed. From what I've seen that probably applies to most people here. But there is a financial downside to revering instead of worshipping, you don't get taxpayer funded free out of hours visits inside Stonehenge in small groups. (Unlike the group that was in there chanting Hail Satan a few weeks ago.)

So clearly we nature lovers should rebrand nature as a deity, Nora, and ask if we can be let into the circle for free to worship Her.


Good point Nigel ... quite like the name Nora. Alternatively, could just go somewhere quieter. Walked up to the Ridgeway from Bishopstone yesterday - within minutes saw several Clouded Yellow and Chalkhill Blue butterflies, a pair of kestrels and a red kite. The sun was shining (not too hot) and there was a fresh breeze. Nora is a good old girl.
