Even in the darkest places, we claim our right to act. There are no forbidden lands, no lost causes, no irredeemable beings.

Btw, why are RW pagans having an issue with Platonism? This is some infiltration bs conflict to cause division.
There are no issues to be found, all European faiths are valid.
(In extension Egyptian, Vedic, Aztec-Maya religion etc)

As promised, I would elaborate on my thoughts regarding the subject of Paganism.
I know what you think, I think that way too. A lot of reconstructionist efforts are goofy asf and let their understanding of the ancient religions be influenced by contemporary ideologies, individualist mindset and abrahamism as their reference for understanding religion.
However, fractured as it may be. Paganism can have a future should a solid group of people gather and revitalise what is left, paganism now shouldn't be reenactment of the iron age or the mediterranean bronze age etc.
Now to the main point, yes, paganism is a materialistic form of religion. We are however material bodies, in a material world with material needs. And very few have the karma to pursue a path that transcends religiosity that is concerned with making good material conditions, or elevating such in their view as supreme.

No, I don't believe paganism to be an appropriate vehicle for enlightenment. Spiritual insight and realizations? Sure, but that is not synonymous with supreme awakening.
This is just a matter of perspective however, as I'm first and foremost a Buddhist; I will put the doctrine, the Buddhas and all of those gone to bliss on the top of my hierarchy.

A friendly reminder to keep your practice of spirituality, regardless of wherever you may find yourself in life at this point and later.
Through the good and bad, prosperity and despair. Dont forget your sacred commitment to the divine, prayer, offerings and contemplation will carry you through.

The metaphysical implications of the intellectually deficient man saluting the leader of national socialist Germany are multifaceted, at face value it may seem like just another silly meme produced by the schzio right-wing. But underneath the irony lies a very inspiring and powerful message.
Stay tuned

The religious have a clear map, good understanding of the terrain, they know how to prepare for it.
"spiritual" people want to figure it out from scratch, without understanding the map or the people who have navigated through the terrain before.
