Ok...it's time to put my marketing talent's to use. But first, let me explain
the proper use of advertising on a flyer. A flyer is supposed to give a brief
synopsis of the topic at hand. So any flyer about Nova Roma should clearly
state in brief form our goals and purpose. To do otherwise would be shielding
information which is then construed as nothing less than "an attempt to lure
unsuspecting innocents". While different flyers can be developed which
emphasize one aspect of the organization over the other, it should not deny
any parts either. We will gain much more respect and positive exposure if we
come right out and say "one of our interests is the restoration of Ancient
Pagan Roman Religion" rather than "we do this, that, and the other
thing...and, oh yeah...we're pagan, did we forget to mention that?"

Sorry if I'm being a bit defensive or sarcastic...I don't mean to be. I would
just hate to see us get a reputation of being deceitful. Look what happened
to the Moonies! They tried to hide who they were in their recruiting efforts
and it blew up in their faces. (and no...I'm not comparing us to the
Moonies!)

My two cents. I will work on developing a flyer and pass it around the list
or the message board for approval.
