 TH> Where in America are pagans not allowed to practice paganism? 

Try Fort Hood, Texas.  There was (and there may be, AFAIK) a VERY big deal to 
remove Paganisim/Wiccanisim/et al as recognized religions from the Armed 
Forces.  I was very pissed and called up the three-star general that ran the 
whole post.  It's sad, that's what it is.

 TH> I'm not aware that pagans are being denied their rights in America.

Oh, they are, believe me.  Especially in the military.

 TH> When are pagan rituals interfered with in America?

Try Fort Hood, Texas, again.  Let me try to see if I can find the article 
through some friends and I'll post it here... it was an outright shame.

Later,
Sean
