According to Erasmiius Stella, the Prussians said that the gods dwelt in groves and woods; here sacrifices were to be offered to them; from hence sunshine and rain were to be obtained. "They said that the gods inhabited the finest trees, such as oaks; from these trees enquirers heard replies given to them; therefore they did not cut down trees of this kind but tended them religiously as the houses of their deities."

Not a single trace of the jesus christ personage can be found in authentic history. Nevertheless, this newly fabricated hoax of jesus christ, the son of god, this idea, with all its suicidal doctrines, was soon to pull down in ruins the great Roman Empire and the great White civilization that went with it.

Hellenic popular teaching commands that every talent must develop through a struggle: whereas modern educators fear nothing more than the unleashing of so-called ambition.

Celts and Slavs have the same tradition when it comes to facial hair

This Pagan custom of theirs claims that fire serves their father, an evil and insidious demon who created the law to cut long hair and shave beards with a razor. He (the saint) as if numb to his body, rejected vile and madness of any carnal tradition and did not cut them (hair and beard). Seeing a man of such look the king asked he whether he was a christian. He admitted that boldly which caused the king great anger and frenzy.

Through years of devotion and ritual you can develop very close relationships with the Gods. Also one can be chosen by a God or Goddess and guided for seemingly no particular reason.

Calliope, Muse of Epic Poetry by Charles Meynier

The youth thought of the good of his native city when he ran a race or threw or sang; he wanted to increase its reputation through his own; it was to the city's gods that he dedicated the wreaths which the umpires placed on his head in honour.
From childhood, every Greek felt the burning desire within him to be an instrument of bringing well-being to his city in the contest: in this, his selfishness was lit, as well as curbed and restricted.

The Lost Hero by Ed Org

The accusation made against paganism that it’s just making things up, could not be more wrong-paganism is the sole alternative to “choose your own god”. The fact that we’ve been off-track for a long time hardly matters. Ancient error is still error. Ancient anti-authoritarianism is still anti-authoritarianism. The ancestral principle is simply the recognition that you don’t get to choose your own authority. Only paganism holds this principle consistently, because your forefathers didn’t get to choose their own authority either.

Plato thought he could do for the Greeks what Mohammed did for the Arabs several centuries later...His ideas were quite practicable just as certainly as those of Mohammed were practicable; for even much more incredible ideas, those of Christianity, proved themselves to be practicable!
A few hazards less and a few hazards more and then the world would have witnessed the Platonisation of Southern Europe and, if we suppose that this state of things had continued to our own days, we should probably be worshipping Plato now as the “good principle.”

The translation is done, but the fragment needs some backstory to be understood fully. The text tells how Pagan Lithvanian Algirdas met with a christian (future martyr) and what's most important here-how he managed to realize he was a christian. This has to do with Slavic traditions, but is hopefully will be interesting enough for all the readers.

While Odysseus is an example of a hero chosen by a deity for his personal qualities (quick wit and skill in battle), Chryses, on the other hand, is a devoted follower, who has full support of his God.

No thoughtful person should be ignorant of the fact that the road to the gods never starts from "powers," whether we call them "magical" or dress them up in theological termi­nology.
To do otherwise is to be guilty of applying the concept of evolution in an entirely meaningless way. This rift is barely covered over by a name as futile and yet as pretentious as "Vegetation deity." After all, what we describe by this name is nothing else but a pretext to account for the fact of growth—some­ thing just as abstract and lifeless as the concept of growth itself.
