Long post incoming please be respectful

You see the state of the world anon? You ever noticed the start of this shit? You ever read the bible? Well I have, I would like to educate you today. I would mark the downfall of europe when a widespread non european faith became the faith of europe.

Christianity what was once a jewish sect spread to Europe via the roman empire. It was a more peaceful form a Judaism that focused around a rabbi that claimed to be the messiah. His name was Jesus of Nazareth and he spread that he was the son of god and had been brought to this mortal realm to sprea d gods true teachings.

Now that you understand the base of the religion let me tell you what happened. The religion was spread to Europe where it got a head start as being the religion of the roman empire. It morphed with pagan values and became more violent. After this it was both peacefully and violently spread throughout Europe overtaking traditional european paganism.

From here on europe saw the dark ages and nothing but wars and strife it was almost like a curse brought to us from the land of the jews.

I promote european countries to re connect with their respective pagan religions and drop the failed judeo-christian values that were forced upon us.

Some misconceptions people get is that this is a new movement removing years of history.
Its not, its meerly a return religions that had been practiced for thousands of years. Next I promote all paganism not just norse paganism but also roman and hellenic along with slavic celtic and all others I am not a muh odin kind of a guy.


Lastly while we promote returning to the old ways we do not promote destruction of christianity. We understand its a vital part of our history and we would never remove it. We respect the religion highly but we honestly think the values have led europe astray.

We are not trying to larp but rather actually believe and return to the old way of things the new way clearly has not worked out.

The Greeks asked the question, "what is wisdom?", and formulated many answers for it. Sometime later, a travelling rabbi effectively says "I am wisdom", alongside many other unintelligible claims, around whom a cult quickly forms. Western civilization takes the anonymous figure on his word, doesn't ponder the question further, and has never asked it again since. That's the difference between the Greeks and the Semites, and I think we all know which category your camp falls into.

The problem with imbeciles like you is that you think Jesus was a philosopher. He was a prophet. He never made any claims about what wisdom is.

How can you even believe in "old gods". they are simple cultural arifacts and the only reason for going back to paganism is blatant contrarianism instead of any pure belief. Do people now adays believe in Odin? An entity inextricably linked to a specific culture group (which by itself probably subsumed a culture group before it, why not go before paganism and go straight to shamanism?) a universal god or a mindset like abrahamic or hindu/Confucius actual allows one to honestly believe in some absolute.

Anyways, you are probably a history brainlet if you see rather specific correlations between religion and subjective social progress. Saying that it "failed" is reductionist in the extreme. was 15th century Europe any worse or better than 15th century Japan?

As someone who has actually read primary sources I am always disgusted by pagan larpers who have a idiotic linear sense of history and turn a blind eye to the various socio-economic factors interpretations and developments at play. I see so much more of the best of aristotle and plato in middle age manuscripts than anything in the Hellenistic period of utter self help. I could go on for paragraphs about how exceptionally wrong you are. And I can if you want.

>> No.14171744

>>14171257
I can at least partially agree with you on that butterfly. I see things as causal and athiesm/agnosticim is probably enevitable. MOst of the really interesting/influential works by pagans usualy worked within a diest/agnostic frame anyway. And once Christianity got into full swing they did the same with a more wholistic (while still not completely rational) mindframe of some platonic absolute that lead the way for true intellectual rigor later on.

Sometime ago I read some pagan claiming that Tolkiens work was more pagan than Iliad, I havent been able to take paganism seriously after that. They think aesthetic and religion are one and the same. If you want to convert into non-abrahamic religion take up buddhism or something, and do it seriously, don't just copy the aesthetic.

You are ignorant to the role Christianity played in shaping the Western mind.

Ill answer your replys.

"You dont even believe in your gods!"
Two reasons for this. 1. Our religions were never as fervent in belief as Semitic religions comparing your religion to mine is like comparing candy to fruit and then saying the fruits not sweet. It clearly is but your perception is warped. Secondly the legitimize of the religions is always lowered by people when they scream LARP and Faggot. So it kinda makes you feel like going and just accepting the mainstream its almost a struggle of wills. Do I believe what I actually care about or do I crumble and just go back? Because of your screeches of larp saying that we dont even worship you cause us to not worship.

"You dont even know your whole religion."

Now im paraphrasing above but the point still stands that our religions is fractured. Not because of internal strife or clergy like Christianity but because our religions were shattered. Its like shattering a great glass art scattering the pieces everywhere and laughing at the person for not being able to put it back together perfectly. You destroy our religion then laugh when you see us trying to rebuild it?

Lastly I will talk about what I said about how everything went to shit after we got injected with non European religion. The christian values not stolen from pagan Greece are very very bad in our current time for Europe. Turn the other cheek? To what thousands of illegal migrants invading Europe? Your religion itself brought a dark age to europe by assisting in the collapse in the roman empire them assisting prolonging it by burning books and repressing science as heretical. Your religion is non European and your ancestors shed a tear every time you kneel the altar and pray to a crucified Jewish rabbi

We did have wars but not as huge on a scale of Christianity. They thought for both land and conversion we only fought for little bits of resources and land. We did not care that we worshiped different religions as the religious base was still the same. We can actually translate our gods to roman and greek gods and retain the same meaning. This is simply how indo european religions kinda work. So no wars were not as harsh as there was no conversion element to it.

There's so much wrong with all of this, as in most of the fundamental premises your argument is built on are completely hollow that's it's hard to even engage without first talking about that.
Your whole idea of a codified faith is a post-Christian thing, the idea that there was a Paganism™ with a codified set of values or whatever is entirely misleading
I mean what little actual philosophical ideas in Christianity that are taken from Judaism are foreign, but the many entire gods and goddesses and their cults which are taken from much further south and east in "roman and hellenic paganism" are totally fine?
You have no fucking clue what you're talking about, have you ever even read a book before?
You don't understand anything about Christianity, you have a meme understanding from short youtube videos and maybe a counterpoints article on Nietzsche and slave morality and that's about it.
