   Random question I was wondering about, I was browsing Telegram and I saw one dude talking about Pagans existing that worship an original Sun God. I know Von List talked about this as-well but assumed he just didn’t know Dyḗus ph₂tḗr‘s (pic rel) name (as he said Tiwaz (Tyr) probably derived from him) as it wasn’t know as the time Von List was around. Anyone got any info on this whole idea?
   
   Edit: Turns out Dyḗus ph₂tḗr IS essentially a Sun god, he represents the bright sky of the day, I didn’t catch that until now, was just thinking he’s The Sky Father and didn’t know the second bit

     Sun gods always made sense to me because it nourishes the plants animals eat and gives us warmth, all in a giant cycle of life.

     @SK1ZM @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired in contrast to the worship of the Moon, Sun worship actually makes sense a lot. People who did it were mostly highly civilized, take for example the cult of Sol Invictus in Rome vs the Moon worship of the Arab (which they're still doing in the form of another religion)
