Forwarded from Aryan Paganism, Traditions and Art (APTA)
In truth paganism never died. From the attempts to restore solar worship under the Illyrian emperors (notably under Aurelius, thanks to the support of Plotinus), and from those undertaken later by the Emperor Julian, it has been a constant inspiration. At the end of the fourth century, a time when Christianity, which had become a State Religion, would appear to have triumphed, we can even speak of a "pagan renaissance." Pagan values subsequently continued to survive, both in the collective unconscious and in certain customary folk rituals (incorrectly labeled "folklore"), in the theology of certain great "Christian" heretics, and through the expedient of countless literary and artistic revivals.

Has European culture been Christian since the conversion?
Christian music was primarily limited to vocal compositions, whereas secular music used a myriad of instruments and was often composed with the purpose of encouraging people to dance. In the 4th century, St. John Chrysostom proclaimed: “Where dance is found, there is the devil.” Because it was lightweight and easily portable, the violin was a fixture at taverns and outdoor celebrations — as a result, the violin became associated with the devil because the church condemned these activities as frivolous, sinful and, in the case of certain festivals, pagan. That’s right, even the Christian church thought European folk music and dance to be pagan. It seems that the European culture we know and love was often condemned by the church and not inspired by Christianity whatsoever.

Those who complain about white privilege tend to deliberately avoid addressing the fact of “white child labor” in American, Slavic, and European history. They like to pretend like child labor in America, Slavic countries, & Europe never existed, but it did! Another fact ”they” (people who complain about white privilege) like to ignore is the mass starvation and severe poverty of whites in American, Slavic, and European history.
The FACT is that from the point in world history when a then new religion and worldview that came in with a Abrahamism, and took over the entire world, changing everything, destroying the old-world tribal, clan communities that were self-sufficient and lived in harmony with nature, and causing a drastic class divisions in society, creating a world where so many have so little and so few have so much, only some white people had any sort of privilege, and those were the white people who belonged to wealthy or elite families, and wealthy/ elite white families made up only a tiny percentage compared to the whites who were the poor commoners of society. So unless you were a white person who belonged to a wealthy family, you were pretty much living in severe poverty, starving most of the times, and lived in horrible conditions
