7/12/25: Faith
Nothing in this world irritates me more than self-righteous "pagans," who demand that everyone subscribes to their Orthodoxy. Most aren't pagans, but rather Heathenists, worshipping a reconstructed religion. I have seen some suggest that the Norse gods don't get jealous, or threaten, or get angry - have they read anything ever?
A wholly different person claimed that Pagonism is a set, defined religion that requires more "effort" than nature walks.
HUMAN SPIRITUALITY ISN'T ABOUT EFFORT.
That's a puritanical, purist belief rooted in religious extremists (typical Christian, because these are usually white Americans who become these Militant Pagans)
YOU CAN'T DISRESPECT YOUR ANCESTORS' RELIGION BY PRACTICING IT IMPROPERLY. YOU ARE PRACTICING IT WRONG BY VIRTUE OF PRACTICING AT ALL.
As a person who enjoys comparative mythology, religious theology, psychology, and politics, the people who misunderstand everything about everything while preaching and proselytizing about how they're morally superior absolutely boil my blood.
Never tell anyone how they should worship anything. Everyone is wrong in unique, interesting ways. To claim otherwise is to fundamentally misunderstand the human condition and the nature of faith.
