I think religions that focus on this real, provable world of matter are worth more than religions that say "now" is nothing but a shit-test where those who pass get rewarded for their "tolerance".
We have no proof that your "spirit" goes anywhere upon death. We have no proof that a spirit exists.
But "Respecting the machine spirit of my car" and "feeling the ancient magic in nature when respecting its beauty" would mean a smaller change to my life than throwing out my own individuality hoping to be rewarded by a god that enjoys watching us suffer.

>>2810
Neat.
>Druidism, the cult of the ancestors or the Celt's religion is a religion focused on achieving true connection with yourself and the world around you, focuses on truth and making yourself the best you can be both spiritually and mentally
That makes sense. Making somrone strong in all areas without the mandated butchery of the mind or soul or body is a good practice.
>>2811
I think one that has both, the spiritual after effects and the physical, are more well adjusted.
>I think religions that focus on this real, provable world of matter are worth more than religions that say "now" is nothing but a shit-test where those who pass get rewarded for their "tolerance".
Anything that says it's a shit test needs to have its shit pushed in. They want something from you, who knows if they will ever deliver or how shit they will make things just because.
>But "Respecting the machine spirit of my car" and "feeling the ancient magic in nature when respecting its beauty" would mean a smaller change to my life than throwing out my own individuality hoping to be rewarded by a god that enjoys watching us suffer.
Positive cooperation with yourself in all aspects and whatever religion or spirituality should be the goal.

>>2811
Yeah i never understood giving yourself to this guy in the sky that you can't even see but somehow listens to the bull shit that comes out of your mouth so you can't swear or cuss, he isn't provable and he is not comparable to the pagan gods as he is not from our lands, sure maybe Christ was some good guy but that is idealism, you are following another man which makes you some sort of ultra faggot that wants to lick another man's boot.

Maybe spirits don't go anywhere after death but performing magic and divination DOES create changes in the world and you will see it if you pay attention, they are waiting to show themselves to you but are mostly ignored by everyone so only exist in secret or will show themselves in events that you may deem as being just a strange anomaly when it is the opposite case.
I think because Christianity is pretty much fully subverted by the Jews that maybe we should look for another option in spirituality and i came to the conclusion that druidism is probably the best for our people and ourselves since it is from our own lands.
>>2813
Yes, the druids had to undergo a initiation that lasted 20 years and had to study all forms of morals and magic as well as astrology and natural medicines, so they were held in high regard as being extremely intelligent.

Funny how the Christians never considered the Jews practices of circumcision as barbaric but the pagan worship of animals and nature was deemed as heresy and compared them to the Egyptians which because they are all from a similar sort of desert.

The main thing about druidism is nature, nature seems to be the life blood of them as well as the appreciation of life and the study of things now lost, they taught more wisdom in their community's then most schools like to show or let people know but almost all of their wisdom and knowledge has been lost to time.

I understand Revelation 2:9 exists in the bible but i think Christianity as a whole is not keeping true to Christ's own words so they teach only that of which they deem as the 'best' parts of the bible which stroke their own ego the best rather than showing truth they only show specific parts of the bible which they think are the most happiest and nice and full of rainbows as well as having all the nice good words and the best gummy bear gospel is all they like to teach as the other parts of the bible are just too 'boring' for them too even read or spend a minute thinking of going outside of the box as that is too scary for them and so they like to repeat the same 2000 year old sentences over and over in their churches until the sentences lose all meaning, strange how despite them calling themselves Christians they don't know half of things in the bible, i mean really how can you be a self proclaimed follower of Christ when you haven't even read half of the things he has said?
So because of all this weird delusion it makes me wonder about what is truth and how many things are just there to pleasure ourselves which makes me feel as if no one cares about the world around them as they are too ignorant and enveloped into their primal emotions and possessions to care about the well being of their surroundings and the beauty within them as they cannot fully let go of their material lust so they do not understand the world as most people don't want to let go as they are afraid of losing all they possess so they resort to thinking the same patterns in their heads as that is what pleases them the most instead of finding truth and beauty they search for selfish happiness.

Druidism taught me how to let go of those materialist distractions and find the true meaning of who i am, it is wonderful to feel as if one part of yourself is not endlessly fighting with another part of the soul but instead want only the best for you and everything else, it is always better to be in a blissful mindset than to be trapped in a mental cage of confusion.

>>2813
>allows the smegma to accumulate
is that fucking degenerate trying to sell that like it's a selling point?!

>>2816
I always thought of it as blasphemous to have your own child's foreskin be removed because some fucking Bergstein told you that it is good so they trust the 'doctor' and have their new born baby's dick sawed off and the foreskin is then used in the most devilish rituals for greed and power.
Fucking despicable that most Americans have this performed on their kids while turning a blind eye to the history behind the procedure.

>>2817
These same Americans will then be lectured on how "Female Genital Mutilation" performed in Africa by tribal doctors in mudhuts is the only part of their culture we're allowed to, and supposed to, hate and want changed.
Why the double standard?
Do Jews not consider severed vagina skin worth anything? Does it have no value to jewish skincare companies?

>>2818
It's probably because it looks like ham so they prefer baby foreskin.

>>2821
I think the site's being raided. A lot of low-effort and off-topic threads are being pushed onto the main board. Some are distractions like "would you fuck a robot girl?" and some are anti-white shit.

>>2822
Well i did say Jews were going to amp up their game.
We can only hope mods stay based and delete the slide threads.

>>2822
OH SHIT HERE IT IS!
The Jews cavalry's here!

Based mods.

>>2824
I don't trust anyone who starts saying shit like "there is no white race, that's a jew lie to divide us".
France exists, and it's part of the EU. If China wanted to nuke the entire EU, it would be everyone's problem.
Brits exist, and we're white. Leftists and blacks and jews and some asians (the stupid ones) want all whites dead, and it's everyone's problem.

>>2842
The Aryan race still exists, most people don't have pure Aryan blood due to breeding with other bloods like the Roman blood has been replaced with the Hispanic breed instead of the original Mediterranean race, the Aryans do still exist it's just there is not a lot of people you can call a true descendant of the old, the Aryan is noted as having blue eyes and blonde hair with a strong chin, the Anglo-Saxon is not that nor is the Franc or the Slavs, the only really concentrated people in the world with the most pure blood are the peoples that keep to themselves the most like the Finns due to them being so rural they have been able to keep some of the old blood, even if some of it is Genghis Khan's.

I consider myself to be more pure in blood than most as i have the traits which define someone as being a Aryan, i have most of the mentioned above, i don't have full blonde hair but i would say it is dark blonde halfway then brown at the top and it is blonde at the root, i even have blonde pubes on my face instead of brown or black and they will go even whiter as i get older, another weird thing is that i have double jointed limbs and can do a backwards handshake.
I have no idea how i am this white but i'll prefer it over being a shit skin any day of the week. If people say that there is no more Aryans then they have not seen me yet.
Britons typically have brown or black eyes and dark hair and i definitely am not that, There is not a lot of people that have the fortune of being intellectually and racially good but those people that complain about unfairness in the skyrim character creator are nothing more than undesirables with unfit genes and intellect.

>circumcision
In the Nag Hammadi Library there is a book called "The Gospel of Thomas". At one point in The Gospel of Thomas the Disciples ask Jesus "Is circumcision useful or not?" And Jesus replies: "If it were useful, their father would produce children already circumcised from their mother. Rather, the true circumcision in spirit has become profitable in every respect"
Gee, I wonder just (((who))) chose which books are included in the Bible and which ones are left out...

>>2879
I have heard of that gospel before, is Thomas called the "skeptic"?
They would never show anything like that in the churches, they would rather repeat the same sections of the bible than explore their own faith.
The churches need to be revamped to teach true Christianity, it's either that or they are going to be destroyed, which is probably going to happen through Muslims converting them to mosques or the lack of funding.

The churches are without true organization, they have no one who is truly passionate about the religion as they have no one that teaches anything useful or knowledgeable so they only really stick to what they like, they do not know half of the religion nor do they know anything about other religions.
I think Christianity sort of erased the differences and uniqueness of Europe, some Americans think because America was founded on Christian beliefs that America is therefor Christian but if a Gael was to take this principle they would be inherently non Christian because Ireland was founded on pagan beliefs. So if people want to return to their peoples roots they have to learn their peoples history and if you believe that the foundation of your country is religion then you must know the religions of your own history, to ignore your history and become a atheist is pure ignorance of the past.
There is wisdom in the past that no one bothers to look at and it is just sitting there forgotten and only remembered by a couple of cunts.

I don't like Christianity as it tells people how to think and behave as well as it restricts personal freedom because you want to please this good guy in the sky, instead of wanting to please yourself or the things around yourself.
I have looked into other religions but i think that druidism is the most close to my own beliefs and way of life, i want to find meaning in life and how everything connects into each other but most religions do not explore the concept of truth but instead force you into a way of thought, druidism does not bind your brain in guilt chains.

Imagine if every church was teaching the actual words that are written in the bible, we would not be in this mess if people were able to think, Christianity is lost as the followers of the faith are without understanding of their own faith and do not want to learn it.
So inside of my brain i pondered on what is a better alternative to Christendom that is not already fucked or subverted and i found that i support paganism due to it being closer to Europe's history and it being more true to the old ways because it was created by the Aryans for the Aryans so my puzzle solving skills fit the jigsaw together and i figured that it is better to change to an already existing faith that is not subverted then to fix a religion that is already in decay and currently doesn't teach the truth.

I honor the truth and to go against yourself and the truth will lead to misery, if you want to learn the way of being one with yourself and not understanding the world then you have Buddhism, if you want to try understand the world but not understand yourself fully then you have science, then there is paganism which allows you to understand your soul and teaches you how the world works through the praise of what is true.

Atheism is the neglect of both understanding the mind and the world, they claim nothing exists so thus nothing matters but they do not see how things work in actuality as they cannot understand the domino effect of consequences or how things play into one another through patterns of the past, many of them also claim that there is no proof of spiritualism existing in the world but this is due to them not paying attention nor actually trying to understand it, it seems as if they are trapped within a prison of doubts and so they doubt the existence of everything because they do not understand it so they retreat from the world and cower in idiocy when faced with something that threatens their way of thought.

It' better to go back to the old traditions of our people than to hold onto straws of a dying dogma, or that's how i look at it.
I baffles me that people do not want to learn new things or try something to see if it works, many people ignore such things as it confuses them or they refuse to want to become better and become a guinea pig that runs a wheel all day because that's all they want to do, the world is full of wasted potential and no understands what they are capable of because they are afraid to go out of the box.

>>2886
The advantage of Christianity is that it comes with The Bible, a book that says to be good.
Not many people read it.
I like Druidism more than Christianity, but is there a Druid/Pagan Bible that says to be good, and explains for everyone (including adults and kids alike) what good is?

>>2894
The thing about paganism is that its original practitioners did not believe in recorded knowledge, it was all passed down by word of mouth. Unfortunately that got BTFO'd pretty hard. So, unless you're willing to sift through baseless new age type hippy stuff, you're shit out of luck. The best we have is sparse archaeological evidence filtered through modern interpretation.

>>2894
There is a few notable classical texts that tell you about the druids but they never wrote down their actual practices because they taught each other through speaking and they didn't want people knowing about the religion.
The classical texts that i know are from Julius Caesar, Posidonius, Strabo, Diodurus Siculus and Pomponius Mela.
Julius Caesar:
http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/druids.htm
>"The Druids are in charge of all religious matters, superin­tending public and private sacrifices, and explaining superstitions. A large crowd of young men, who flock to them for schooling, hold the Druids in great respect. For they have opinions to give on almost all disputes involving tribes or individuals, and if any crime is committed, any murder done, or if there is contention about a will or the boundaries of some property, they are the people who investigate the matter and establish rewards and punishments. Any individual or community that refuses to abide by their decision is excluded from the sacrifices, which is held to be the most serious punishment possible. Those thus excommuni­cated are viewed as impious criminals, they are deserted by their friends and no one will visit them or talk to them to avoid the risk of contagion from them. They are deprived of all rights in court, and they forfeit all claim to honors.

>There is one arch-druid of supreme power. On his death, he is succeeded either by someone outstanding among his fellows, or, if there are several of equal caliber, the decision is reached by a vote of all the Druids, and the election is sometimes managed by force. At a fixed time of year they assemble at a holy place in the territory of the Carnutes, which is thought to be the center of Gaul. Anyone with a grievance attends and obeys the decisions and judgments which the Druids give. The general view is that this religion originated in Britain and was imported into Gaul, which means that any keen student of Druidism now goes to Britain for information. . .

>The whole Gallic nation is virtually a prey to superstition, and this makes the serious invalids or those engaged in battle or dangerous exploits sacrifice men instead of animals. They even vow to immolate themselves, using the Druids as their ministers for this purpose. They feel that the spirit of the gods cannot be appeased unless a man's life is given for a life. Public sacrifices of the same sort are common. Another practice is to make images of enormous size, with the limbs woven from osiers [willows]. Living human beings are fitted into these, and, when they are set on fire, the men are engulfed in the flames and perish. The general feeling is that the immortal gods are better pleased with the sacrifice of those caught in theft, robbery or some other crime. But if a supply of such criminals is lacking, then they resort to the sacrifice of completely innocent victims. . . "
>Posidonius
>The Philosopher and the Druids: A Journey Among the Ancient Celts
(pdf)

Diodurus Siculus:
http://exploringcelticciv.web.unc.edu/diodorus-siculus-library-of-history/
>§ 5.28. The Gauls are tall, with rippling muscles, and white of skin, and their hair is blond, and not only naturally so, but they also make it their practice by artificial means to increase the distinguishing colour which nature has given it. For they are always washing their hair in lime-water, and they pull it back from the forehead to the top of the head and back to the nape of the neck, with the result that their appearance is like that of Satyrs and Pans, since the treatment of their hair makes it so heavy and coarse that it differs in no respect from the mane of horses. Some of them shave the beard, but others let it grow a little; and the nobles shave their cheeks, but they let the mustache grow until it covers the mouth. Consequently, when they are eating, their mustaches become entangled in the food, and when they are drinking, the beverage passes, as it were, through a kind of a strainer. When they dine they all sit, not upon chairs, but upon the ground, using for cushions the skins of wolves or of dogs. The service at the meals is performed by the youngest children, both male and female, who are of suitable age; and near at hand are their fireplaces heaped with coals, and on them are cauldrons and spits holding whole pieces of meat. They reward brave warriors with the choicest portions of the meat, in the same manner as the poet introduces Ajax as honoured by the chiefs after he returned victorious from his single combat with Hector [in Illiad 7.321]: “To Ajax then were given of the backbone / Slices, full-length, unto his honour.”

The others are referenced throughout a couple of books
>>2895
The only accounts we have of the druids is from their neighbors so you are wrong, there is things written about them and their practices but nothing from themselves other than a few traces of the Ogam script here and there.

>>2895
I do wish they was some scripts in Ogam that exist so that it was inside of their language, so pretty much some tome of arcane knowledge but nothing exists like that or maybe it does somewhere, there are also a couple of books in Gaelic about a couple of things although these are really rare and old so they are prone to decay.

Oh yeah the Gaelic books are not as old as the druids and are from after that period.
Here's something from the Book of Dun Cow (Echtra Condla chaim maic Cuind Chetchathaig):
https://www.libraryireland.com/SocialHistoryAncientIreland/II-VIII-4.php
"The adventure of Connla the Comely, son of Conn the Hundred-Fighter, her. Whence the name of Art the Lone one? [Art the son of Conn, who was called 'Art the Lone one,' after his brother Connla had been taken away by the fairy.] Not difficult to answer, on a certain day as Connla of the Golden Hair, son of Connla the Hundred-Fighter, stood beside his father on the Hill of Ushnagh, he saw a lady in strange attire coming towards him. Connla spoke: 'Whence hast thou come' O lady?' he says, 'I have come,' replied the lady, 'from the land of the ever-living, a place where there is neither death, nor sin, nor transgression. We have continual feasts: we practice every benevolent work without contention. We dwell in a large shee; and hence we are called the People of the Fairy-Mound.' 'To whom art thou speaking, my boy?' says Conn to his son; for no one saw the lady save Connla only."

>>2894
>The advantage of Christianity is that it comes with The Bible, a book that says to be good.
Books are able to be changed and misinterpreted due to how old the book is, in other words dumb people can't make sense of it because it doesn't have enough bro's, hoes and hipster clothes.
The druids never writ down their religious endeavors because they didn't want their enemy's to know how to read stars or how to call upon the land, which is a double edged sword since not writing down what you do means that you unable to be infiltrated and subverted like Christianity but on the other side of the blade that power is soon forgotten and is now lost.
>>2895
>The thing about paganism is that its original practitioners did not believe in recorded knowledge, it was all passed down by word of mouth.
That's right, learning by speech is easier than books since you don't have to write everything down and you don't need parchment or any other things to write on, it's faster than reading as well since it is more of a direct experience that shows you how to accomplish your task but now no one knows how to accomplish any of their desires due to cultural decay and a lot of people feel without purpose because they don't know how to achieve their goals and the world leaves people with great potential in the dark.
>Unfortunately that got BTFO'd pretty hard.
This was because Christianity was shoved down Europe's throat by some sand zombies that believed they were doing the will of god so they had the most inflated ego in the ancient world but they were instead doing the devil's work because only a asshole would venture to other people's lands, force beliefs upon the population and destroy their culture, why would you want to chop down a holy tree that is believed to hold wisdom and chopping it down dearly upset the pagans if you believe you are doing something good?
Why would you want to go out of your way to lie to people to get them to join some ancient hipster religion when they were doing fine without it?
Why were the medieval times called the "dark ages" when at the time everyone in Europe was a devout Christian? And if you didn't want to be forced into that life you were executed for heresy.
I don't understand how people can get into such a zealous mindset that they are so correct when they can't see what they are doing, they can't see the outcome of what they are attempting to do nor can they rethink their decisions.
>So, unless you're willing to sift through baseless new age type hippy stuff, you're shit out of luck.
It depends on the type of drug and what the person is trying to achieve while on them, different chemicals do drastically different things so you can't classify them all as bad, Caffeine is a drug, alcohol is a drug, nicotine is a drug but they are not illegal because the controllers make profit from them, alcohol is the most profitable out of them because of what it does to you, people burn their livers which is a profit since the medical industry thrives of off alcohol.
I went off topic a bit. I think that to try and find knowledge that is now hidden in the past is better than to simply forget it.
Nikola Tesla's discovery's are now unknown but that doesn't mean he didn't achieve anything, are we going to forget what he tried to find? Or are we going to at least attempt to rediscover his findings?
>The best we have is sparse archaeological evidence filtered through modern interpretation.
There is a couple things i have to base my pagan exploration from, mainly it is the old records of them by the Greeks and Romans but there is also the psychedelia which i think played an important role in their rituals since there is a lot of references to them throughout Aryan history, psychedelics shouldn't be used for the sole purpose of pleasure as there is a lot more to them than just pleasure, they kick your brain into overdrive so you are able to make dreams become a reality.
There is a lot more i can write about concerning psychedelics in old pagan rituals.
Modern interpretation is just pointless guesswork without a true aim, people are afraid to go out of the box and do exactly what they want to do so most self proclaimed "druids" do not do what they did because a lot of it is now illegal, human sacrifice, animal sacrifice and psilocybe mushrooms, so they adhere to the law but by not letting themselves free they are still chained to Christianity so they are more or less cucks that want to please the establishment and please themselves at the same time.

>>2907
I heard somewhere once that the war between paganism and christianity took place on several fronts, and one of those is what drugs became normalized. Pagans used herbal and fungal psychedelics, Christians had alcohol. The christian church saw pagans using hallucinogens as a spiritual tool, and so outlawed it wherever possible. Some pagans held on by mixing the two, with beers that contained psilocibin mushrooms. I think this held on clear into the 17th century or so, until Christians outlawed that too. Interesting to think about, the effects of the different drugs, the social aspects of each, the religious/social beliefs that can emerge from their use.

>>2908
Also, alcohol is a lot easier to profit off of then some plant that anyone can go out into the woods and find for themselves.

>>2908
They saw them as a symbol of European heritage and wanted it removed so that the Europeans were all good goy dumb brains that don't want to follow daddy's footsteps and instead follow some pope on dope that tells them how to cope without hope.
An old method of preserving food was mixing it with honey which when in the case of preserving psilocybin created a type of mushroom mead.
That's why i don't drink alcohol on the regular, excessive drinking numbs the mind instead of enhancing it and damages the body instead of healing.
>>2909
This.
Alcohol is priced and is created over time from the rotting of sugars, mushrooms are available depending on the season and are a natural produce of the land, which is a element of the earth and is another reason for treason because it IS a symbol of power that (((they))) know makes the cattle smart, so they have been fighting the "drug war" ever since the onset of Christianity in Europe.

Here's some advice from a wanna be philosopher:
Try and use your left hand more, it's better to know how to use both hands as good as each other in case you ever lose your main hand or can't use it so that you don't have to spend time getting used to it and they are both hands so they can do the same things as one another so use both instead of one.
The best way for me was using my mouse with my left hand when i broke my right hand.

Reevaluate your experiences, if you are unhappy think as to why you are so that you may solve it, think back to your past experiences so that you may learn from them instead of forgetting a situation where you did something wrong so that you don't fail it again in case the same problem faces you again.

Don't fall into a pattern of repetition where you are constantly doing the same things over and over, do something different instead of running circles to no end.
Go out of the box and explore, there is a lot to be learned from the world and not many people have the desire to learn new things.

Think about what people have said so that you yourself may consider if it is true or false, ponder on questions that have been raised and facts that have been stated instead of ignoring them and forgetting the facts.

Praise truth, remember what is true and what isn't and why they are true, it is better to know all then to be unaware of the world around you.
Learn truth, learn what is right and what is wrong and consider the morals that have been implanted into you so that you do not blindly follow orders like a puppet.

Expand your horizon of knowledge so that you may encompass a wide array of thoughts and ideas, knowledge is power.

Learn yourself, uncover the veil that droops over your eyes and find out who you are, without self exploration all other advancements into the unknown are not fully complete without knowing yourself, know yourself like you know your enemy an know your enemy like you know yourself, it will make you more confident in yourself if you are lacking in that department.

I am going to continue this later at some point.

Yeah i felt like there was a thread like that but i forgot about it.
I will post whatever i think about there.

Thanks you.

There is a breed of pigs which are called Celtic pigs and the pig was considered a holy animal by the Celts and there is a lot of pig bones around commonly used places like a well or a fireplace and they are also found in ritual sites, which makes it pretty much the opposite of Judaism as a Jew cannot eat ham and the pig is considered a disgusting animal to (((them))) because of the way it sustains itself and acts.

https://www.meta-religion.com/World_Religions/Ancient_religions/Europe/animal_symbolism_in_celtic_mytho.htm
>Horses, cattle, and pigs represent fertility. Horse, cattle, and pig bones are found in Welsh and Celtic graves, (Powell, 28) indicating that they were very important to those cultures. The prosperity of the clan is reflected in the prosperity of its herds. Cattle were a major Celtic food source (Davidson, 52)and as such, would be proportionally important to the success and survival of the tribe. Later, pigs became added to the diet of the Irish.

https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/2376474/jewish/Pigs-Judaism.htm
>There is probably no animal as disgusting to Jewish sensitivities as the pig. It’s not just because it may not be eaten: there are plenty of other animals that aren’t kosher either, but none of them arouse as much disgust as the pig. Colloquially, the pig is the ultimate symbol of loathing; when you say that someone “acted like a chazir [pig],” it suggests that he or she did something unusually abominable. Indeed, many people think of pork, ham, bacon, etc., as the most unkosher foods there are.

>Avoiding its name: Many call the animal davar acher, “another thing,” rather than by its proper name. This practice goes back to the Talmud.5
>Prohibition against raising pigs: “The sages forbade raising pigs anywhere [whether in the Land of Israel or elsewhere] . . . The sages pronounced a curse on one who raises dogs or pigs, because they cause frequent and serious damage.”6

Alright i am gonna post all the main Celtic gods that i know of, there was a couple others but are separate from the Tuatha Dé Danann:
Bres, he is a king of the Tuatha Dé Danann and is seen as a god of fertility, his name is translated as "beautiful horseman."
Dagda, he is a king and master of druidism, often referred to as the good god or great god, he is seen as the father of the gods.
Nuada, he was the first king of the Tuatha Dé Danann but lost his arm during a battle which revoked his king status, he is most associated as being a god of war.
Lugh, he is not as prominent as the other gods but is associated with a festival named after him (Lughnasa) which happens on the 1st of August and is most related to the Roman god Mercury, he is the god of skills.
Ogma, the Ogam script is said to be derived from him and he is seen as the god of language.

There is a couple other gods which are not as widely worshiped but i will name another 2:
Epona, you probably already know who this one is but she is a goddess of the Equine species and is the protector of them, she is also seen as a fertility goddess but her worship was not as widespread as the others as most of her followers were Gauls and not the Gaels or Britons but she is still a Celtic goddess.
Morrígan, she is the goddess of war, death and doom, she usually foretells the outcome of a battle or the outcome of death, the Celts would sever heads after a battle in favor of her and she would basically give them a rundown of the outcome of that battle, she is commonly depicted as a crow or wolf.

>Who the fuck are the Tuatha Dé Danann?
They were pretty much seen as a tribe of people with supernatural powers or specifically skilled in certain areas which were incorporated by the Celts as idols, so they are a part of Irish mythology.

The kings and queens of Ireland were proposed to have druids assigned to them to help with their rule, they would keep them from doing wrong as it was considered a great taboo in Ireland for a king to commit any form of moral wrongdoing as apparently the land would have a recurring effect, a form of karma would plague the king's land if he were to commit a disgraceful act, so the druids were there to stop the king from damaging his own land and people from the wrath of spiritual vengeance.

A book called "Druids: Preachers of Immortality" i have yet to find a pdf version of this but i have found a small sample:

Here's a couple more things to read if you are somewhat interested:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/284284164_Druids_and_Druidesses_Gender_Issues_in_Druidry
>The first literal mention of a Druidess, or woman-Druid (mulier druias/dryas) can be found in the story of Alexander Severus, who had set out on a military expedition to aid the Gauls against Germanic invaders around the year 235. When he “went to war a Druid prophetess cried out in the Gallic tongue (mulier Druias eunti exclamavit Gallico sermone), “Go, but do not hope for victory, and put no trust in your soldiers”.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/312057039_'Celtic_Shamanism'_Pagan_Celtic_Spirituality
>At one time, a network of formal schools for generations of druids crossed the Celtic lands, the most important of which was located on the Isle of Mona (modern Anglesey). According to Julius Caesar, a druidic education – which could easily take twenty years – encompassed science, law, practical religion, philosophy, and history. Because writing was mistrusted for storage and transmission of important information, all of this had to be memorized. Details of such education have unfortunately been lost, and we do not know how, or if, magical initiation was formally conferred.

Hmm, i think now is the right time for me to give a couple of things which put me off the Christians and their church.
Firstly i want to point out that Jesus never said he wanted churches built after him or for people to spread a bible about him all over the 4 corners of the earth and replace other peoples religions, i make a distinct separation between the church and Christ because they are different to each other as the church teaches beliefs that never were said to be taught by Jesus so most of the Christians made up their own beliefs that were not from Jesus, the Christians have smeared this man's name throughout the deepest darkest parts of the world for what reason? To spread the holy words of some guy who was killed by Jews? No it was to control people and herd them into a sheep coral of slavery, that is the reason they spread the 'holy' bible around to the Negros in the Congo and the Zulus, it wasn't out of kindness but to force them to adhere to god or be killed, that is not being kind or helpful as that is plain slavery because they took away their traditions and forced theirs onto them, which hasn't worked because after all this time the Negros are still running rampant eating each others children or raping their own women.
Then when you look at what the Christians have helped in Europe it is a similar example but without the baby eating niggers, the Christians came to Europe and forced their bible onto the pagans while destroying idols and ideals for what reason? To follow the path of Jesus? No they did it by acting like a bunch of niggers burning down other people's things while shouting at them for believing in something strange to them, the Christians do not follow the path of love or honorary traditions whatsoever because to become part of the church is to believe something separate from Jesus believed, he never went around to European countries and stole things that were culturally significant to them or destroyed their beliefs, instead he went to Jerusalem and tried ridding the city of thieves and liars along with the main cause of the problems there, Jews.
What has Christianity done that actually followed Jesus? Well they have read his bible and approved of his words of kindness and being true to family but they have twisted it into something completely unkind by using families as a vestibule to create slave families by making them adhere to Christian RULE, the Christian kings were nothing more than the world's worst examples of kingship throughout history, they were nothing more than dogs sat on thrones in fancy clothes, they used their power to fill themselves with all forms of pleasure while having other people do their jobs for them or they were mega assholes who hated other people for doing something different from Christian belief because they saw it as alien from their way of thinking.

Then there is the distinction between Catholic and protestant sides of the church, one believes more strongly than the other in family (Catholicism) but the other (Protestantism) is more slack in beliefs in favor of false freedom which it claims to have more of, Catholicism to me has always been the superior version due to it following traditions better but even then those traditions are copies of pagan traditionalism, such as the Celts along with other pagans had their own concept of morals and law, which the Christians replaced in the name of their 'god', the rid us of our cultural bonds and put us in god's chains instead, they didn't help us or add to our culture but only stole from it and turned 'Easter' and 'Christmas' into Christian ripoffs, as they were originally pagan celebrations that degenerated into Christian worship of god.

Celtic monarchy had druids helping the king by giving him advice but they never did his work for him unlike what the Christians did, if a Celtic king did any of the atrocities that let's say William III did during his Protestant reign then he would have been killed by his own people for disgrace, the Celts had their own form of kingship which i consider far superior to the Christian form of monarchist rule, i would have wanted to post more about this in that monarchist thread on the main board but it got archived before i could really give my thoughts on monarchy so i will put them here instead.
All the Christian kings of England were just a shitty copy of the Celtic monarchy that had gone before them in the same land, the schools also teach nothing about Celtic monarchism or the old accounts of pagan law because pagan law is deemed 'heretical' for being unchristian.
All in all the Celtic kings had personal druids who gave them advice on what he should do but never did what the king was meant to do, they were there as professional advisors of law and moral instead of letting the king just do whatever he wants to his own people, it's a damn disappointment all them Christian kings were never stopped by the people of his domain because that is what would have happened back in the Celtic times, the Christian form of kingship allowed the king to have too much power which lead to greed and lust taking control of all the potential of his power, the Christians are corrupt in everything they do, from their church to their kings it is all false lies and corrupted ideals of the past molded into a religion that came from a desert by so called 'saints', there is a very big list of all the crimes committed by Christians but where is the list of crimes committed by Celts? What did the Celts ever do against Christians? What have the Christians done to my land? The evidence is right in front of everyone to how wrong Christianity really is because most people are so used to it by now that they ignore the barbarity of them, the Celts were fine with their druid faith so what reason was there to get rid of a system that worked? The reason is that it was something that worked too well so the controllers got rid of the Celts and their laws because it worked.

Are all traditions beautiful? Are all cultures beautiful?
The Penis Thieves of Burkina Faso, and the Ahgori Sect... Those motherfuckers need Jesus.

>>3102
>Are all traditions beautiful?
Some are and some are not, there are many examples of backwards traditions like the Chinese and Indians have a couple traditions that are unnecessarily ugly, most of the worst European ones are incomparable to forcing children into marriage which several Asian traditions promote to do and support it.
There are traditions best left forgotten but unfortunately the world is not perfectly complete with a combination of everything for the good of it's people and land, there are traditions that should be remembered but many original European traditions have been swept under the rug by those who wish to dismantle our way of life.
>Are all cultures beautiful?
Not all of them, there are a couple exceptions as there always is in the world but for example the culture of the Negro is one that relies on the misfortune of others by either eating other tribes or raping their women, sometimes a mixture of both.
The old Aryan culture along with ancient pagan cultures are the most promoting of true European ideals but they are not commonly taught in very many places due to them being too idealistic for those in control of our people, i enjoy the old mythologies very much for they are a nice alternative to the stories of the bible and they also demonstrate European beauty nicely but there is a distinct separation between the Semitic and Aryan myths as the Christian 'myths' descend directly from the old Semitic myths because where else could they come from? They are not Aryan in nature and have a distinct similarity to other desert religions that all come from the same sort of Semitic race.

The Aryan and pagan cultures belong close to my heart as being the true original beliefs of the European races.
>The Penis Thieves of Burkina Faso and the Ahgori Sect... Those motherfuckers need Jesus.
The bible cannot help those who do not wish to help themselves so it is best leaving those lower races to fight their own endless wars without our need of interference because time has showed it is not worth the effort trying to tame the Negros or the Semitic races because evil is rooted deeply within their line of ancestry, it is simply pointless to give what has been shown to not work to the Africans for even in the western world they continue to hold onto their habits of killing and raping despite them having no connection to the blacks in Africa other than genes, the Negro does not require a religion to stop him from performing what he has always done since the world began as even the atheistic ones are still very violent, the Semitic races are exactly the same but not as openly admitting of their diabolical nature or show it as readily as they are more akin to hiding their beliefs, that is why the study of the Torah is forbidden to be taught to non Jews because they do not want their beliefs being shown for what they really are, if what they believed in was so nice and pretty then why don't they show it?
The Negro, Semitic and Aryan races are incompatible with each other and time has told that over the span of history.

How much more can you tell me about this Druid stuff?
Are there daily rituals like praying to spirits?
How does the religion shape their actions?
How religious is the average follower of Druidism?
Do they say shit like "By the moon" or "Spirits above"?
Would mankind's growing scientific knowledge damage a Druid country's faith in religion or would it incorporate science to create a pro-science+understanding+experimentation and pro-spirituality+morality blend?

>>3111
>How much more can you tell me about this Druid stuff?
Depends on how much you want to know, i will try answer what you can ask but what exactly do you want to know about?
I know quite a bit but am still learning about Aryan and Celtic mythology so i will try answer whatever.
>Are there daily rituals like praying to spirits?
Not prayers but more meditation, gain the attention of daemons and respect nature while being kind and manly, worship the gods then give offerings, praise the sun and moon respectively.
There have been numerous times i have come in contact with things i can only say are not normal, i have had visions of the future through deep meditation on psychedelics or while on them during sleep, i am afraid of going outside at night during the waning crescent specifically around 13% due to having so many anomalies occurring at that phase.
There is no real handbook of druid magicians but there is mention of some stuff throughout the literary i have found, i make most of my magical work by myself rather than following any specific group because i have found that is what works best, i take most of it from actual witchcraft but also other forms of it like Aztecan as well as some other magician cultures like the Egyptians, i think sex or love magic was a common practice among st Egyptian sorcerers.
>How does the religion shape their actions?
I think their diet was different to most but i'm not sure exactly what it could be other than maybe it being low in fats and including fasting, there is something to how drugs effect someone on an empty stomach that creates a stronger experience so maybe they did not eat very much other than the necessities as over indulgence wasn't very common unless at festivals or fire celebrations like the eves of May the 1st, August the first and November 1st, these were considered spirit nights but there would be particular events every 3 months on the 20th, the summer solstice being the most liveliest and where rituals were aplenty.
Do you mean also discipline in the religion?
Well in terms of discipline they could still fight other people but only in defense rather than offense, they were somewhat disciplined in diet because they must have been on drugs of some kind while having a diet that centered around getting into trance easier so thus obviously a fasting diet of some kind would have been implemented to achieve a deeper trance state, the amount of magical practices they would have underwent would have been something that would have required a unique diet to achieve full mastery of, the powers of prophecy and magic are increased under psychedelics and must have been considered very natural to them but abuse of them must have been a taboo since their purpose is not just for pleasure.
>How religious is the average follower of Druidism?
Very spiritual rather than devout to a specific organization, they were more like shamans than Christians and the evidence to support Celtic shamanism does exist, they were more open rather than prejudicial and were always thinking about what they are doing before going into something blindly, they were more than simply just ignorant nature loving peace seekers, they knew lots of occult practices and were generally not afraid of the dark or of being in the nude, they were very appreciative of the world around them because they were in tune with themselves and their surroundings, they more like Aryan wizards that delved into both black magic and white magic equally, they were not afraid of daemons but were very respective of them, they did not demonize daemons like most Christians did, they knew the difference between good and evil spirits.
>Do they say shit like "By the moon" or "Spirits above"?
There could be some stuff like that in old Gaelic and old Celtic but i'm not sure about it because it is something not quite well known to me, i know the Ogham script and frequently write in it when doing something related to the occult or witchcraft.
There is obviously some euphemisms and sayings inside Gaelic which i guess could be incorporated as druids swearing and cursing.
>Would mankind's growing scientific knowledge damage a Druid country's faith in religion or would it incorporate science to create a pro-science+understanding+experimentation and pro-spirituality+morality blend?
The Christians were the ones who forwarded science but i don't see why a druid society would be anti science because they were astronomers so i would imagine that it would work better than a Christian world dedicated to science since there is more openness to how to approach it, alchemy was first shunned by the church as they saw it as being a form of magic so they were actively anti science in the medieval ages, druids must have been well versed in potion brewing and alchemy as the combination of drugs would have required some cauldron which already existed at the time of the iron age Celts.
I don't see why druids could be anti science as star counting was common, they were always keeping track of the stars and were well learned.

What do you want to know about this? Are you interested in it?
It is a part of the history of these isles which is largely ignored so i appreciate your interest, also nice trips.

>>3113
How does being a Druid change one's behaviour and thought processes?

>>3117
Well they were meant to be friendly to those who are friends and know how to inflict curses on others, they were respectful and learned in language as well as the universe and moral law, they knew many things but they kept most of it secret from those they didn't trust so in other words they hid their power level, the Celts believed in trust and taking care of friends so they helped anyone who needed shelter or food, if you really want to get deep in druids then i would recommend this Jew tube channel.

This guy is good for listening to in the background because it's almost perfect for podcasts, he is very learned in this.

Never really got why people killed each other for gods. If you think about it all gods (if they truly exist) could be related to each other. Just beings using different names and forms for different cultures.

>>3120
>Never really got why people killed each other for gods.
It's an excuse for people to fight each other, war has always been wrought by every form of human culture and people get bored easily without something to argue or fight over, it's a very ape like behavior that has always been a part of our psyche, gods gave people something to fight for.
>If you think about it all gods (if they truly exist) could be related to each other.
Many European gods were descended from the Aryan gods such as Zeus and Jupiter are descended from Dyaus but the Aryans never worshiped the gods like how so many cultures did after them, they were nature worshipers but did have gods (Bhaga) that they did not worship in favor of animals and plants, the surrounding cultures adopted many of their practices around the Vedas which developed into being the foundations of original Hindu teachings, it seems they preferred fucking animals than fighting each other for gods.
>Just beings using different names and forms for different cultures.
Most European gods are descended from different but similar roots, the Latin gods were different from the other Germanic gods in origin and the Celtic gods were separate from the Norse, most come from an old ancestral root which stems from that specific culture's ancestors gods and beliefs.

>See a thread about Druidism
>It's just pagans bitching & being assmad about Christianity
Maybe people would take you more seriously if you actually discussed your beliefs instead of crying about Christians.

>>3120
Imagine you believe in Chungus, the great pagan rabbit-god of kindness and heroism.
Your neighbouring tribe believes in Murderapus, the evil aztec god of rape and child sacrifice.
War is inevitable in such a setup.

>>3493
Alright then, for once I'll try not bitch about those god botherers but rather wimp about the current state of things.
Celtic paganism is (mostly) lost to time and things will never return to the way it used to be, some organizations do still exist but most of them are westernized and subverted as would be expected, the one most people recognize is the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids (OBOD) yet it is a modernized attempt at rebranding the old order solely as a nature based group of hairy hippies playing dress up, maybe with the right leadership and some extra polish it wouldn't be just a group of vegetarians that complain about global warming and how meat is murder, then the group could be more realistic to history and rid it of foreigners as well as blind traitors, no one really takes it seriously because of the preach of peace they repeat, there has to be a change to spice things up a notch.
The actual Celts were savage warriors that weren't afraid of death or fighting, they were interspersed amongst different lifestyles and occupations, in ancient times there were tight knit clans that worked together to survive. the druids seemed to be types of Celtic mystics that studied the stars and were most likely to be akin to wise men and gurus, the bards were musicians and poets, while the ovates were spiritualists that practised herbal magic and were essentially shamans in profession.

>>3497
Speaking of hippies and "meat is murder" fuck hippies.
When modern factories kill animals they herd the animals onto a killing floor and press a button that sends enough voltage through the floor and their hearts to stop the hearts of those animals. They die before they can feel anything, it's like turning off a light switch.
But lefties will lie about modern farming and the pollution it supposedly generates and how cruel they think it is to animals without taking a second to look at how muslims make halal meat.
First the muslim gets his goat into a dark facility and ties the goat's legs up, lifting him by the legs. Then the barbarian slashes the throat of the goat, letting the heart's frantic panicked pumping squeeze all of the goat blood out of the body and into a bucket. Then the mudslime struggles with the thrashing goat to keep its neck pointed at the bucket of goat blood to reduce cleanup. The animal dies full of pain and fear and the muslims go to hell when they die for this reason and other reasons.
If any type of meat production should be banned, it is halal meat. Hippies are like watermelons, green on the outside and red on the inside.

>>3500
People and animals die eventually so it doesn't neccesarily matter whether they die today or tomorrow since they're on the path there anyways, the key is to not be afraid to die since society nowadays is so fear ridden and anger driven that they would rather die in bed than in pain, dying means death and most men or more so women prefer to die in 'peace' than dying doing what they love.
Also, kebabs are shit and Muslims stink of it.
