Cool quote about Odin:
"Odin (Óðinn in Old Norse), possibly the most revered yet enigmatic of all Norse gods, was regarded as the king of the Æsir tribe of gods. Historically, Odin had always been prominent in the pantheon of Germanic mythology, as is evident from Tacitus’ late 1st-century AD work Germania (where Odin is seen as the equivalent of Roman god Mercury). And given his mythical eminence over the cultural framework of the Germanic people, Odin was associated with various (and often antithetical) aspects, ranging from wisdom, healing, royalty to death, sorcery, and even frenzy.Pertaining to the attribute of wisdom, the character of Odin mirroring his ‘contradictory’ aspects, was often portrayed as the haggard wanderer who relentlessly seeks knowledge, in spite of his regal status as the ruler of the Asgard. One of the stories epitomizes the god’s thirst for knowledge and wisdom where Odin willingly gouges out one of his eyes as a sacrifice for Mimir, a shadowy being who possesses unparalleled knowledge because of its consumption of the water from the Well of Urd. Mimir in return offers Odin a draught from the well that draws water from the roots of the Yggdrasil, the cosmic tree that binds the nine worlds of Norse mythology.
On the other hand, the one-eyed Odin also has a sinister (albeit in a nascent level) side to him, given the entity’s proclivity for provocation that leads to conflicts and wars. Essentially, when perceived as a war-god, Odin was seen as the epitome of battle frenzy and chaos – aspects that were favored by the warlords and berserkers. In any case, in our modern-day context, the name of Odin is related to Wednesday, since the word is derived from wodnesdæg (“Woden’s Day”), with Odin being referred to as Wōden in Old English and Wōtan in Old High German."

Interesting article, about the druids. Europe needs to return to its roots.

The history behind Ireland’s ancient Druids
Who were the Druids? Today the word conjures thoughts of magic, wizardry, and spiritualism, but in ancient times the definition of Druid was much broader.

The Day Mountbatten Died (2019)
On 27 August 1979, Lord Mountbatten, great uncle to Prince Charles, was blown up at sea by the IRA off the west coast of the Republic of Ireland. Three others were killed on the boat that day, including two teenage boys. Later that afternoon, in a second strike, the IRA killed 18 British soldiers, across the border in Northern Ireland.
Forty years on, this is the story of that remarkable Bank Holiday Monday - movingly told by those directly affected by it.

IAN PAISLEY - KINCORA BOY'S HOME COVER-UP SCANDAL
The Kincora Boys' Home was a boys' home in Belfast, Northern Ireland that was the scene of serious organised child sexual abuse, causing a scandal and attempted cover-up in 1980, with allegations of state collusion.
Ian Paisley, leader of the Democratic Unionist Party and moderator of the Free Presbyterian Church which he founded in 1951, was accused of failing to report McGrath's abuse to the relevant authorities. He initially denied ever being advised by his informant, a church member, Valerie Shaw, that it was taking place. Paisley later gave other versions acknowledging learning from Shaw about McGrath's homosexuality.
