friskie has now been added to my personal pantheon

That is pretty much how paganism worked

yep

Which is why it was sweeped by Christianity

yep

If only you knew that all was in all

O

?

Aire, since you're pagan I believe you must know about the Codex Regius and the Poetic Edda? Since those books are the source for pretty much all of the nordic paganism. Without them we would know nothing about paganism or heathenism.

Do you know who wrote them down? Who compiled them? Who saved them? Catholic monks and priests on Iceland. Without Catholicism you would know nothing about your ''paganism''.

1. I'm not germanic
2. why do I care who wrote them? without chrisitans it would still be practiced

Religion

eys religion is gay

Your forefathers gave up their pagan ways and accepted Christ. What makes you think you know better than your forefathers who practiced paganism for real?

He doesn't care

You are spitting on them

Because he is just LARPing

Like the edgy teenager that wants to rebel against his parents

And don't tell me it was forced on them. Because it wasn't

it was forced on most europeans and there were lots of reasons for the other conversions. It wasn't nearly as simple as "OH THIS IS GUD LETS DO THIS"

ye alright

lmao

Haha.

anyway

I must go

It spread just like it spread from the early christians while being persecuted wildly

<:rubbetirub:492691976081375242> muh paganism <:rubbetirub:492691976081375242>

Yes, you must go braise odin

no I'm going to braise friskies

Aire, i have already stated that trying to reconstruct paganism doesn't work

It always ends up in LARPing

Exactly, just like atheism doesn't work

Look at PP

most people in pp are just there for the memes

They are a community of mouth breathers

My advice is that instead of caring about aesthetics, and about culture, you start worrying about the pursuit of the truth. Go study the ressurrection of Christ and try to debunk it, like James Wood did.

And once you got that covered, you can care about culture

The rituals and incantations can't be reenacted

And aesthetics. But the truth is always a priority

Sure

The pursuit of truth
