A place for Folkish European (Aryan) Pagans to honor the Gods and Ancestral traditions
Pagan boxer banned for PEDs
Performance-enhancing drugs have been a topic of debate for a while. What Pagan side has to contribute to it is rather significant since sport is fundamentally Pagan. Can one honor the Gods with a performance enhanced by illegal substances? No. Therefore when Pagans use drugs it’s an even bigger shame. Russian heavyweight boxer Alexander Povetkin has already retired, but he’s been disqualified 3 times for using PEDs. As an ex fan, I tried to defend Povetkin at first, but it’s a bad hill to die on. After a recent review of the man’s career I came to a disappointing conclusion that Alexander’s best fights were all on PEDs. A shame one of a few European Pagan athletes (though how Pagan he was is debatable) stained his legacy like that.
It seems as if the early Christian kings and their councillors primarily focused on the cultic activities when dismantling the Old Norse religion.
Snorri himself arranged his material in accordance with literary models and rhetorical devices that were common among learned writers in the Middle Ages. He framed his mythical narratives in, for instance, Ynglinga saga with the “The Learned Prehistory,” where the gods were euhemeristically converted into earthly rulers. These narratives were based on a pattern provided by Virgil’s Aeneid, where it is described how Aeneas left Troy and founded the empire of Rome. Similar to Aeneas, Óðinn left Ásgarðr, the capital of Ásaland in Asia, and travelled to Sigtuna in Svetjud, where he settled and founded the royal Ynglinga-family who descended from euhemeristically interpreted gods.

Sometimes the memes make themselves.
"We don't worship gods, we just like work with them. I think Loki is on the night shift because he played a trick on management"
Why can’t atheists just accept that we don’t want them in our circles? Can tattoo runes and read the sources, but if you don’t believe in Gods and their deeds you are not a Pagan. Simple.

A good example of reddit fag paganism. Workship (seriously?) instead of worship and female writing style.

One of the basic maxims of ancient Greek ethics was the injunction to “help friends and harm enemies”.
We only need to look at Plato’s Republic I. Polemarchus gives a definition of justice which–he believes–will be accepted by everybody for being so traditional, obvious and widespread: justice, giving each person their due, means “helping friends and harming enemies”. We usually fail to recognize how revolutionary is Socrates’ ethics, which commands that the just person never harm anyone.
G.Giorgini
The conception of gods in human terms was ultimately challenged: Xenophanes (ca. 560–478 BCE), the earliest known social critic of anthropomorphism, delivered trenchant attacks on the immorality of the gods in the Greek pantheon. Socrates (ca. 470–399 BCE) particularized his criticism of dissolute exploits: Hesiod, Homer, and other poets were to blame for telling tales in which gods — and so-called heroes — set a bad example. He was accused of corruptive behavior, put on trial, and executed.

Reincarnation in Slavic traditional faith
Czech legends tell of the spirits of the dead transforming into white horses, cats, hares, white chickens, and the like; the spirits of those who committed suicide transform into black dogs for the time they would otherwise have lived.

Why I don’t follow Adam Green in one simple comment. Pagans and atheists are not on the same side. Being anti-christian and being anti-religion are two different things. Ancient atheist like Xenophanes and Socrates were against pre-christian traditions long before christianity emerged.

Cult sites could, for instance, be called Gudhem; that is, “home of the divine powers.” We have one Gudhem in Västergötland and one well known Gudme (Gudhem) in Fyn, Denmark. The divine powers had in a concrete sense settled among the people on earth.

Recently I've seen a disturbing trend of some folks cozying up to judeo-christianity; trying to include it within our worldview as just another divine being among many.
Let us not forget it was the synchronization of christianity & ancestral faiths that lead to their destruction & to our current troubles today.
Some say, "we need to be friendly for unity," which was the exact call that led to our ancestors being burned alive & forced to follow a foreign religion, of a foreign people, of a foreign land, of a foreign entity, to our detriment, which we succeeded in spite of it, not because of it.
This same evil is trying to reappear to drag us back into the darkness. Judeo-christianity is dying in the West among Europeans, trying to preserve it for the sake of 'unity' was the same mistake our ancestors made.
"When you see evil, call it out & give your enemies no peace." - Odin, Havamal 127
When you can't recognize the evil of our ancient enemy, unwilling to call it out & making peace with it, it's anti-Odinic.

Plato had a negative view not just of Greek religion, but also morals. According to traditional Hellenic morality, being just means helping friends and hurting enemies. A simple definition any reasonable man would agree with. Plato didn’t. In Republic he (via Socrates) says: "Then if a man says that justice consists in the repayment of debts, and that good is the debt which a just man owes to his friends, and evil the debt which he owes to his enemies, — to say this is not wise; for it is not true, if, as has been clearly shown, the injuring of another can be in no case just."
This element of platonism was adopted by christians.
I don’t know why 22k follow @Thuletide if you look up Epstein on his page it’s nothing but him defending Epstein. Not very Thule.

True, some so-called minor gods were theriomorphic, from Ancient Greek thēríon (θηρίον, "animal") and morphē (μορφή, "form, shape"), and had the shapes of beasts (e.g., Achelous, Pan). Irrespective, all the gods had corporeal forms and attendant prototypically human motivations, be they biological, environmental (especially social), or psychological.

Hercules, after his victory, restored his captive Menalippe to her sister, receiving the arms of the queen as a recompense; and having thus executed what was imposed on him, he returned to the king.
