Funny how they never turn to the true god, Jesus Christ.

My ex-wife was into this garbage. Wicca, paganism, druidism, etc., it's all new age gobbledygook. I didn't figure out what was going on with her until I got suspicious of her staying out late. I figured out she was seeing a dopehead living in a trailer park who fancied himself a psychic medium and she was obsessed with him and the occult. I divorced her as quickly as I could.

In the course of my divorce I got way more familiar with this stuff than I ever wanted. Basically the people who are involved in this claim they're a continuation of ancient celtic religions but they're full of it. The Romans eradicated celtic paganism, they wiped out all the druids when they came to the british isles. There was no record of the druids religion left to be continued to modern times and the people who claim they're doing so are lying. Modern paganism traces it's roots to a Brit named Gerald Gardner who was a kook who started what basically amounted to a sex cult in the 1940's. He was kind of an early Hippie/Charles Manson type without the murder. He made up the stuff about getting his religion from ancient druids to make himself more enticing to the airheads he was trying to bed.

Neo paganism is a natural consequence of the Enlightenment. The athiest seculars who have come to dominate the West and who have not only forsaken traditional religion for themselves but through their control of media, entertainment, academia and government have managed to disassociate large segments of the population from religion as well. However regardless of their beliefs and actions, they have overlooked the fact that humans are the only species capable of mystical thought. Such thinking is critical for creativity. It cannot be suppressed. Hence in an “enlightened” world neo paganism emerges. There is earth worship complete with rituals and holidays. Vampires, comic book superhero movies complement celebrity worship of living and dead personalities. People avidly use drugs and debase themselves to seek the elusive satisfaction they once found with prayer and devotion.

When considering that such a large percentage of the population has embraced these values and rituals, it ought to be no surprise that the Democrats did as well as they did.

Life was much better in Britain before Christianity. Tribalistic Human sacrifice and sodomy were rampant. Demonic possession was the norm. Just the way Britains like it!

If I remember my history, the Romans wiped out Druidism 2000 years ago. So today’s so-called druids are just fakes with a modern made up religion.

He told a Religion Media Centre briefing that the Anglican clergy wanted the service to be multifaith and to include the indigenous spiritual tradition of Wales.

You mean there are indigenous white people as well?

Hmph. "The faith is Europe" indeed.
