A place for Aryan (European) Folkish Pagans
It is, therefore, with good reason that many cities…will not admit either rhetoric or philosophy, on account of the jealousy, and strife, and profitless discussions to which they give rise; And it is owing to this, too, that Theodorus the Atheist was put to death, and that Diagoras was banished; and this latter, sailing away when he was banished, was wrecked.
Athenaeus of Naucratis
Sophocles, passed a decree to banish all the philosophers from Attica. And Philo, the friend of Aristotle, wrote an oration against him; And the Romans, who are in every respect the best of men, banished all the sophists from Rome, on the ground of their corrupting the youth of the city...And Anaxippus the comic poet declares your folly in his Man struck by Lightning, speaking thus:
Alas, you’re a philosopher; but I
Do think philosophers are only wise.
In quibbling about words; in deeds they are,
As far as I can see, completely foolish.
Athenaeus of Naucratis
"Nor are the women hurried early into marriage: the same age and the same full growth is required for both husband and wife: as a result the two sexes unite equally matched and physically healthy; and so the children inherit this strength from their parents."
- Roman historian Tacitus on the virtuous sexual morality of the Germanic Pagans his "Germania" 98 AD

The modern Welsh name for fairies is y Tylwyth Teg, the fair folk or family. This is sometimes lengthened into y Tylwyth Teg yn y Coed, the fair family in the wood, or Tylwyth Teg y Mwn, the fair folk of the mine. They are seen dancing in moonlight nights on the velvety grass, clad in airy and flowing robes of blue, green, white, or scarlet…They are spoken of as bestowing blessings on those mortals whom they select to be thus favoured.

And drinking-cups were favourites even among the Gods; at all events "They pledged each other in their golden cups."

Mark my words this is going to be one of the most subversive and anti-Pagan movies in recent years (though Snyder will probably beat it). Defy the Gods lol. Where would Odysseus even be without Athena’s help?

Greek philosophy is the decadence of the Greek instinct: Thucydides is the great summing up, the final manifestation of that strong, severe positivism which lay in the instincts of the ancient Hellene. After all, it is courage in the face of reality that distinguishes such natures as Thucydides from Plato: Plato is a coward in the face of reality— consequently he takes refuge in the ideal: Thucydides is master of himself— consequently he is able to master life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Iobates ordered him to kill the Chimera, believing that he would be destroyed by the beast, for it was more than a match for many, let alone one; it had the fore part of a lion, the tail of a dragon, and its third head, the middle one, was that of a goat, through which it belched fire. And it devastated the country and harried the cattle; for it was a single creature with the power of three beasts.
So Bellerophon mounted his winged steed Pegasus, offspring of Medusa and Poseidon, and soaring on high shot down the Chimera from the height.
Apollodorus
Antiochus the king banished all the philosophers out of his kingdom, writing thus—“King Antiochus to Phanias: ‘We have written to you before, that no philosopher is to remain in the city, nor in the country…As soon, therefore, as you receive this letter, order a proclamation to be made, that all the philosophers do at once depart from those places, and that as many young men as are detected in going to them, shall be fastened to a pillar and flogged, and their fathers shall be held in great blame.
Athenaeus of Naucratis
Do I not then deservedly detest all you philosophers…men whom not only did Lysimachus the king banish from his own dominions, as Carystius tells us in his Historic Reminiscenses, but the Athenians did so too. At all events, Alexis, in his Horse, says:
Is this the Academy; is this Xenocrates?
May the gods greatly bless Demetrius
And all the lawgivers; for, as men say,
They’ve driven out of Attica with disgrace
All those who do profess to teach the youth
Learning and science.

There’s no such thing as purity spiral. You either follow ancestral traditions properly or not. When you turn a blind eye on your community having an atheist-zoophile because you don’t want to purity spiral or whatever you belong on a cross right next to your degenerate buddy. Those who know whose position I described-throw a bolt just to let me know the numbers.

The name Puck was originally applied to the whole race of English fairies, and there still be few of the realm who enjoy a wider popularity than Puck, in spite of his mischievous attributes. Part of this popularity is due to the poets, especially to Shakspeare. I have alluded to the bard’s accurate knowledge of Welsh folk-lore; the subject is really one of unique interest, in view of the inaccuracy charged upon him as to the English fairyland.

But it is a mark of a gentleman to be moderate in his use of wine, not drinking too greedily, nor drinking large draughts without drawing one’s breath, after the fashion of the Thracians; but to mingle conversation with his cups, as a sort of wholesome medicine.
Athenaeus of Naucratis
And in former times the possession of drinking-cups was reckoned a very honourable thing. Accordingly, Achilles had a very superb cup as a sort of heirloom…And Priam, when offering ransom for his son, amid all his most beautiful treasures especially offers a very exquisitely wrought cup. And Jupiter himself, on the occasion of the birth of Hercules, thinks a drinking-cup a gift worthy to be given to Alemena.
Athenaeus of Naucratis
Since there’s a whole 2 people who liked my The Chronicles of Amber retrospective and been wondering if I’m going to return to it after dropping Blood of Amber let me adress this here. Ultimately I no longer enjoy the series. It was never high art to begin with and with Merlin Cycle the quality really went down (at least for me). The protagonist is too powerful for the story to have real stakes. It’s damn hard to kill a royal Amberite to begin with and adding Chaos magic on top of that is just such an overkill that the tension of Corwin’s adventures is just gone. Also, from what I remember the books will have even more magic later. Reminds me of a balding middle aged man buying a nice car. Magical bells and whistles are nice, but the story itself is still weaker than the first cycle. Come to think of it Zelazny was much older while writing it.
TLDR may get back to it, but that’s definitely not a priority.

No tyrant has ever come forth and said: 'You know what we're going to do with this country? Let's break it up into little pieces, and then let everybody live on their own and not mess with them.' That's not what tyrants do. Tyrants say: 'Let's unite everybody under one single idea, and then we will force them all to believe in that idea.
