The globe offers pagans an interesting dynamic and problem at the same time. While have the world celebrates or grieves the death of a God at Samhain. The other side of the globe is dancing around a May pole and celebrating the conception of that same God. It makes for an interesting contradiction and offers up a real life paradox not unlike one a time traveller in a Science Fiction novel might face. The world is truly a place that is not a place and a time that is not a time apparently

It's not the kind of contradition that would worry me!
