   > May I ask what religion? Some sort of gaelic druidism perhaps?
   
   Something like that. I do my best to reconstruct the religion of my ancestors. They shaped it to help the universe make sense to their people and spiritually elevate them.
   
   It's a bit like jurassic park where they're filling in the gaps with frog DNA but the europeans were amazingly conservative with their beliefs. The same stories, beliefs and practices show up everywhere.
   
   > I've seen it convincingly argued that, at most, the bible consists of HEBREW books, not JEWISH (as in modern jewry)
   
   I've been through that debate a few times, it's semantic. Modern jews act the same way their ancestors did as recorded in the bible. There's all the same pilpul, persecution complexes, god complexes, backstabbing, atrocity propaganda etc. If they are completely different people it's a massive coincidence they behave identically.
   
   > That doesn't matter much, anyway. Because religious books are always dependent on the understanding of the reader, like all books. So if the reader is White, he will see jesus and say "hey that's what I think anyway, based" and when he reads about some desert fuckers killing the shit out of their neighbors, he will say "ah well, different times, glad we have the new covenant", whereas a jew would think "shame about this part, this jesus guy totally forgot about how we always cheat the goyim out of everything" and "i bet those canaanites deserved it", respectively. (No harm meant to any christians reading, whose theology I am butchering here)
   
   Is that how it works out though? A hell of a lot of christians end up identifying with the OT jews and either worshipping them as the chosen people or trying to larp as them.
   
   I think it would make more sense to teach White children their own history with their own sources of pride and their own heroes rather than feeding them the supremacy myths of a foreign culture from a young age. It's not healthy.

     @Eiregoat @Terry very interesting!
     >the europeans were amazingly conservative with their beliefs. The same stories, beliefs and practices show up everywhere.
     I feel the same way when I read about indo-european myths, language, and customs. "Hey, I think like that and I do this!"
     
     >Is that how it works out though?
     Yes, it worked like this for 2000 years almost, until the arrival of mass media and jewish control. Christianity was one of the harshest enemies of judaism. Those that rejected the church, social outcasts and degenerates were the first to fraternize with them and go to bat for jewish emancipation!

     This is one reason I didn't like going to church. Since then, I've learned that for most of history, christianity WAS often that. Sure, there was jesus and some prophets, but they had the european saints like roman soldier St. Martin, St. Patrick and also the (greek) evangelists!
     And people had folk heroes, and noblemen and knights, to look up to!
