Florida boy says he was barred from speech contest due to critical comments on religion | The Raw Story: A Florida fifth-grader said he was stripped of his blue ribbon and barred from taking part in a speech competition because his essay mentioned harm caused by religion.

Unknown Mary Card (tarot?)

I really like this card; has an old school holy card feel to it. I think it must be a tarot card  -- III, The Empress --  but don't know what deck it's from, just found it while searching on-line.

Mother Mary Oracle Card

A beautiful oracle card of Mary from Doreen Virtue's Ascended Masters Oracle Cards,  Mother Mary.
