The Original Masters of Europe
In pre christian Celt society the Druids (Occult philosophers and thinkers) were held in the highest regards much like what plato referred to in his masterpiece- The Republic.
Celts forever, Forever CELT!!!
|
|
it's a shame no one will ever know their secrets...whatever the fuck those crazy bastards were up to |
|
I foresee an atavistic resurgence |
|
there can't be a resurgence though...true druidry never had any written texts(if there were, they were destroyed). the actual ancient ways of the druids are lost forever, as their teachings were done orally
the lord of the rings is a true story, greece and rome are gondor and rohan, elves are druids, hobbits are northern europeans, dwarves are eastern europeans, mordor is the middle east
it makes sense i tell you |
|
Ahhhh, you are wrong
It is in the blood line
I see it |
|
Atavism is the correct term |
|
i had never heard of atavism before...what an interesting read
it doesn't apply to knowledge though...perhaps the druids had inherent magical power that the scientific-minded humans of today don't possess and that could come back via some strange evolutionary path, but sadly the druidic teachings will still be lost, or excitingly recreated all over again |
|
my bad, i just read further into that article and there is a hypothetical form of cultural atavism(they actually specifically use the early 90s scandinavian church burnings to illustrate their point)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atavism |
|
All religion is bullshit, no matter what its called. |
|
The secrets of the druids...
BEHOLD!!!!
A RAZOR WITH THREE BLADES!!!!!!!!!!!
...fuck |
|
As an aside note, they also kick ass in 3rd and 3.5 edition D&D.
Wild shape is a BEAST! |

Vikings! Vikings pillaged and raped and killed all day. All druids did was play with rocks. |

Celts or Vikings
Druids were just a sect in Celt society
The Vikings sacked Ireland and bred with them
The Celts sacked Rome and Greece
Rome could never get over the fact they got smashed up by the Celts so they attacked small farm villages, hahaha

|
I had a feeling this would be rediculous.. and I want happily surprised.
thank you bob.
stephen colbert just told me that if you want to get rid of druids, just cut down all the trees |

Druidry is very easy to bring back from the dead, sure all the teachings were oral, but who was the first teacher? Nature. Pretty much spend as much time thinking and trying to learn things about the earth and nature and you learn the things the druids knew. To become a druid it would take 20 years of intense learning and many years spent living as an animal would.
They still have this group in the UK called the circle of ovates, bards, and Druids, I don't know how legit it is but it is pretty big and old.
and as tot he viking/celt debate.
They are pretty muh equals. Vikings would go out and seek death, Celts would collect the heads of their enemies and mount them in their homes as ornaments.

i was referring to the actual practices and rites of the druids, it's pretty easy to determine what they believed about the world around them, but as far as ceremonies and spells and all that exaggerated jazz it'd be impossible to recreate
damn romans with their greed and lack of tolerance towards others
it amazes me how much of human history has been erased by humans |
|
Fuck yes to the Druids and the Celts .. and fuck yes to Calvin and Hobbes.
My irish heritage goes back to when the Celts/Vikings lived in Wexford, Ireland (west fjord). |
|
you have a family tree that goes back that far? mine was lost in the americanization of larangeo to lirange...then again there aren't more than 5 people that get along in my family at once |
|
If you're Irish and have red hair then there is a good chance you have viking ancestors. Red hair is one of the two gifts of the vikings to Ireland, the other is cities. |

My facial hair is reddish but I have brown hair. Who knows though, I have Swedish/Scottish/English in me too.
