    White Supremacists Have Weaponized an Imaginary Viking Past. It's Time to Reclaim the Real History

    I think we must have interpreted this article differently. He does not mention the word Heathenry in the article as a general term; or at all. He mentions that Asatru do not recognise Odinists, so as not to tar all Germanic neopagans with the same brush. He is solely discussing the far right...

    More information is required before I can reply to this, what are you disputing? What Scientist? What field? The points I have given you are widely available and easily supported.

    Trauma and the Gods

    The gods/esses and ancestors were propitiated as well as petitioned. Adverse outcomes from partitioning the gods are attested; as is the cost in terms of sacrifices for gaining favourable outcomes or pledging to the gods. Pagan deities can be capricious, sometimes you do not get that which you...

    Pagan / Wiccan music

    If you are discussing the Germanic tribes (of which the Norse are a group), I think you may have rose coloured glasses. Life was tough, life expectancy short, infant mortality high, girls married at 12, slavery was endemic and war/land shortage/ climate change drove the Germanic tribes to leave...

    Trauma and the Gods

    Votive offerings to wights, feasting on ritual celebrations, ancestor veneration, divination, use of amulets and verbal charms. These things are supported by literature and archeology.

    White Supremacists Have Weaponized an Imaginary Viking Past. It's Time to Reclaim the Real History

    Interesting article from Time, which I managed to post in the wrong thread. So reposting it here :) White Supremacists Have Weaponized an Imaginary Viking Past. It's Time to Reclaim the Real History

    White Supremacists Have Weaponized an Imaginary Viking Past. It's Time to Reclaim the Real History

    Trauma and the Gods

    Likely to get more than you bargained for if you ask certain Æsir for help, thinking of Odin in particular, the gods have more pressing issues than aiding individuals in their day to day lives. Personally I'd rather sort my own issues out and/or talk to my ancesters and kin for support and...

    Jesus made to resemble Horus et. al.

    A typical statement by a Christian. And your proof is ?

    Jesus made to resemble Horus et. al.

    There are many factually accurate sources on this much discussed topic, I am wondering why you would choose to such an obviously flawed source. We are not discussing general recurring tropes in ALL religions we were disussing the specific mythos of the Christian Jesus. If you can find even a...

    Jesus made to resemble Horus et. al.

    Which is why I said the book was a classic and written some time ago and gave a link to a site that discussed the evidence. A possible character that might have existed is not a ringing endorsement. Which ancients? Refuting Remsburg's survey of early writers/historians by claiming that Jesus...

    Jesus made to resemble Horus et. al.

    Who, for example? Making this claim does not make it true. There is a classic book published a while ago by John E. Remsburg, The Christ: A Critical Review and Analysis of the Evidence of His Existence, Remsburg surveyed the works of writers/historians contemporary with or a century or so after...

    Worship of the Jotun?

    I'm wondering why you would mention Culture of the Teutons which is over a century old (first published in 1909-1912), it is rather dated in its interpretations of Norse mythology. Dichotomies such as good/evil; order/chaos; kin/non-kin; innangarðr/útangarðr are all problematic. Neither would...
