The logical conclusion is that 'real druidry', if it exists, cannot go

Like all English soccer fans that think they can do the manager's job,
and Welsh rugby fans that know how to make it all work better on the
pitch?
I see what you're getting at, but I'm not quite like that.
I am happy for those involved to get on with it as they see fit.
I am not a know-all, but I do have my own opinions, but I understand
that they are just that, just opinions.
I voice my opinions occasionally, but I do not set out to convince
anyone that my thinking is the right way for them. I rarely argue.

Well said!!!!
Your words illustrate my feelings regarding not wanting to be seen as " one
of those people".
This is not to say that all modern Druids are shameful, anything but!!!
However there sure are some crossthreaded wingnuts out there.
I do have a gut feeling however. I feel things are about to turn positive.

The logical conclusion is that 'real druidry', if it exists,
cannot
go
public, not yet.

That position suits you as you don't seem to know much.
I know almost nothing.

Can we agree that "Druidry" is not quite ready for prime time????
How should I know?

Reading ARD should give you a clue!
OK, "Druidry" is not ready for primetime, and the primetime audience
is not ready for "Druidry".

OK, I'd go with that. Mind you, I've never been happy with the idea of
a primetime audience anyway. :-/

I watched the movie "Chocolat" again last evening. Just this morning I was
thinking how the Pop or prime time audience would not really relate to it.
I see Druidry similarly, in that there is a very popular version and then
there
are the less attractive to the common consciousness manifestations.

Sounds about right. It would be pretty impossible to make my tradition
into a mass consumption article without causing it serious damage, and
thus making it into something very different. It's not even worth
consideration.
I rather liked Amelie. :-)
