Good.

That's great.

Similarly, I hope that the experience of being lumped in with
other less pleasant groups for your views will grant you some
sympathy for, say, environmentalists, not all of which are
"worship the earth as our godess" pagans.

I have never said that *all* environmentalists are worshipping earth
pagans. I remember saying some are, however.

I think it is funny, though, that extremists that are portrayed in the
media and other avenues of life  seem to be right wing, and those
extremists on the left (Including *some* environmentalists, animal
rights, etc. are seen as caring, or deeply committed.) I have never
heard, in any of the standard media, environmentalists being called
extremists. It is a bias, that is uncalled for.
