There was no known written records for Odinism and Druidism, however, all historical writings by pre-Christian Romans and Greeks do attest to a lack of philosophy or anything deeper to their religion than tales.

This is similar to other Aryanic religions, however Hinduism developed a deeper sensibility -- around the time of mahavira (jainism) and gautama (buddhism) to give it depth. Zoroastrianism similarly gave depth to the earlier Irani religion. Both Buddhism and Zoroastrianism completelychnaged their parents, but Zoroastrianism replaced the daevas.

This is quite different from the religions of the pre-Christian Europeans.

Furthermore, Zoroastrianism is one of the "revealed" religions with a deep philosophical base. On most merits it ranks higher than Islam -- especially in clarity of thought where Islam belies it's hodge-podge mixture of beliefs covering up it's true message: Bedouin-Arab nationalism. Islam tells you that if you are of the Bedo race, you are a superior caste (hence the adulation vaunted on the Quareishies and the Aga Khan) and then on BEdo traditions -- hence you have people in Indonesia trying to wear beards and pretend to be Arabs, ditto for people in Syria, Libya etc and ditto for Pakis who try to prove that they are really completely descended from Arabs.

I partially agree that Islam is basically Arab-Nationalism. However, trung Roman sources for a complete view of European Paganism is akin to trusting British sources for a complete overview of Hinduism. You would come away with the impression that all Indians do all day is throw widows on bonfires, kill female children, and worship the Elephant Man. The difference is that the British did not do as good a job of eradicating Hinduism in India as Christians did of eradicating Odinism and Druidism in Europe, so the texts are still there for us to see the truth. History is written by the winners.

As for Pakis, their behaviour in my Country leaves me little choice but to believe that they are descended from Arabs.
