When Is A Celt Not A Celt?
A commentary of Neopagan views of history by Joanna HautinMayer, cofounder of Vanaheim Hof, a heathen magical group.
http://www.cyberwitch.com/wychwood/Library/whenIsACeltNotACelt.htm

Extractions: by Joanna Hautin-Mayer Truth is the daughter of time - Old English Proverb In this essay I intend to examine a number of books that have been published recently on Celtic mythology, Druidry, and various forms of "Celtic Wicca" with an eye to their historical veracity. While I appreciate that the value of the metaphysical often cannot be quantified by means of such documentation, I feel that it is essential to use critical analysis in examining any magical system which claims to have an historical basis. History is usually written by the winners. This fact becomes obvious to anyone who has ever made a study of the subject. Many Neopagans and Wiccans feel at odds with written history in general because they consider it to be "patriarchal" and highly biased. And for many people the academic atmosphere often associated with the study of the past can be intimidating. Curious amateurs may feel out of their depth. For these same people, the believe that "mundane" history has little bearing on "us" Neopagans has degenerated into the notion that, because we don't like the history we havefor whatever reasonwe have every right to create a history for ourselves that we do like. Hence we don't need to document where we really come from and what has really happened to us; we can simply invent a history to suit ourselves. I need not go into detail about how ill-advised such behavior is, but I will say that we ought to consider our history to be a foundation and starting point for all our actions. Even with an unpleasant but honest history, we are in a better position for creating change; without a real history we are lost.

House Shadow Drake
A heathen informational resource featuring preGardnerian family traditional Witchcraft and Celtic folklore.
http://www.shadowdrake.com/

Extractions: What is Witchcraft? Witchcraft is the continuation of the native cultural beliefs and practices of the ancient Europeans as they continued to be passed down and followed, generation after generation, after the advent of Christianity. Witchcraft is the name that was given to these practices by the Catholic Church and was not the name by which those who followed these beliefs and practices originally called their religion. Our Stance On Wicca is that everyone has the right to their own beliefs. We believe that people, regardless of their religion, should understand their chosen religion and why they believe as they do. Today, far too many people are ignorant of their religion and rely on poorly documented books and authors to instruct them on what they claim to be their beliefs. The information and questions contained in this website will hopefully help those who truly seek to learn, to question their own religious paradigm. The key element to ANY religion is to truly understand your beliefs.
I DECLARE THIS NID!
Information about this old Norse curse and its use today against Nazis and others who would use heathen symbols for destructive purposes. Includes links to organizations being cursed and a list of other Ni eth stang sites.
http://nidstang.ragnarokr.com/

Extractions: First, the pole is magickally charmed to invoke Helia (Hel), the Norse goddess of death and the underworld, and direct her gaze through the eyes of the horse upon the cursed. Being such a powerful curse, it has never been used lightly, being reserved for great heroes who break their oaths, and the most pathetic of wights who pretend greatness, but act in a low and despicable manner. Nazis Oh, what fun, the Allgermanishe Heidnische Front , or simply Heathen Front , is back up - these niðlings are probably the best example of why this page is here. I no longer see their symbol a Totenkopf with a protection rune on either side, but rather a mass of runes used for the usual hateful politics. They describe themselves as, "a serious movement to gather those Aryans persons willing to fight for the reintroduction of OUR ancestor's sound and natural morals and values. Without a resurrection of our ancient spiritual values, Europe and whites the world over will be annihilated. To make this revitalization of the old values become possible we need a Heathen Front of young, healthy sound heathen men and women which are willing to be courageous and stand up for their beliefs." They have German, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic and even Flemish chapters, all equally nauseating. Apparently this site was down for a month or so because the owners of the servers and internet pipeline they were using didn't want the site on their network. In response, they make quite a few noises about the free speech issue, that they are allowed to say whatever they want according to the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Human Rights. I don't think anyone is disputing this, but they seem to miss the point that their hosting service, or even the owner of the servers their hosters are using, do not have to make their site available to the internet. Personally, I look forward to a world where everyone has the right to spew whatever idiotic hate they choose, but no one cares to publish or distribute such material.

Extractions: Part I. Part I. The knowledge of our religion and of the truth of things is independently manifest rather than in need of human teachers, for almost day by day it asserts itself by facts, and manifests itself brighter than the sun by the doctrine of Christ. 2. Still, as you nevertheless desire to hear about it, Macarius , come let us as wemay be able set forth a few points of the faith of Christ: able though you are to find it out from the divine oracles, but yet generously desiring to hear from others as well. 3. For although the sacred and inspired Scriptures are sufficient to declare the truth,-while there are other works of our blessed teachers , and Christ alone is worshipped and the Father known through Him, and, while gainsayers are put to shame, He daily invisibly wins over the souls of these gainsayers Evil No Part of the Essential Nature of Things.

EXHORTATION TO THE heathen. CHAP. CHAP. II.THE ABSURDITY AND IMPIETY OF THEheathen MYSTERIES AND FABLES ABOUT THE BIRTH AND DEATH OF THEIR GODS.

Extractions: EXHORTATION TO THE HEATHEN CHAP. I.EXHORTATION TO ABANDON THE IMPIOUS MYSTERIES OF IDOLATRY FOR THE ADORATION OF THE DIVINE WORD AND GOD THE FATHER. How, let me ask, have you believed vain fables and supposed animals to be charmed by music while Truth's shining face alone, as would seem appears to you disguised, and is looked on with incredulous eyes? And so Cithaeron, and Helicon, and the mountains of the Odrysi, and the initiatory rites of the Thracians, mysteries of deceit, are hallowed and celebrated in hymns. For me, I am pained at such calamities as form the subjects of tragedy, though but myths; but by you the records of miseries are turned into dramatic compositions. But the dramas and the raving poets, now quite intoxicated, let us crown with ivy; and distracted outright as they are, in Bacchic fashion, with the satyrs, and the frenzied rabble, and the rest of the demon crew, let us confine to Cithaeron and Helicon, now antiquated. But let us bring from above out of heaven, Truth, with Wisdom in all its brightness, and the sacred prophetic choir, down to the holy mount of God; and let Truth, darting her light to the most distant points, cast her rays all around on those that are involved in darkness, and deliver men from delusion, stretching out her very strong right hand, which is wisdom, for their salvation. And raising their eyes, and looking above, let them abandon Helicon and Cithaeron, and take up their abode in Sion. "For out of Sion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem, the celestial Word, the true athlete crowned in the theatre of the whole universe. What my Eunomos sings is not the measure of Terpander, nor that of Capito, nor the Phrygian, nor Lydian, nor Dorian, but the immortal measure of the new harmony which bears God's namethe new, the Levitical song.
Medieval Sourcebook: John VIII: Indulgence For Fighting The Heathen, 878
Medieval Sourcebook Pope John VIII Indulgence for Fighting the heathen,878. John VIII to the bishops in the realm of Louis II the Stammerer.
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/source/john2-ind878.html

Extractions: Indulgence for Fighting the Heathen, 878 John VIII to the bishops in the realm of Louis II [the Stammerer]. You have modestly expressed a desire to know whether those who have recently died in war, fighting in defence of the church of God and for the preservation of the Christian religion and of the state, or those who may in 'he future fall in the same cause, may obtain indulgence for their sins. We confidently reply that those who, out of love to the Christian religion, shall die in battle fighting bravely against pagans or unbelievers, shall receive eternal life. For the Lord has said through his prophet: "In whatever hour a sinner shall be converted, I will remember his sins no longer." By the intercession of St. Peter, who has the power of binding and loosing in heaven and on the earth, we absolve, as far as is permissible, all such and commend them by our prayers to the Lord. Note: Thatcher and McNeal attribute this text to "John II," but this appears to be a typographical error since John II ruled in 523.. The pope who was ruling in 878 was John VIII (872-882). [Thanks to a correspondent for pointing out the problem here.]
