>>2871474
What makes you think pre-Christian/pre-Islamic (paganic) religions) lack "actual" spirituality or years worth of history, literature, and art?

If there's a shortage of it in the modern day, you can thank your iconoclastic buddies who made it a hobby to destroy anything associated with paganism during the 4th - 5th centuries.

Christianity is all about peace and loving each other equally and all that gay shit. Young people are not religious anymore and see religion on the same grounds as entertainment, that's why paganism is cool and Christianity is boring.

platonism is very prominent in christian theology, and it was also in paganism in the Roman empire. christianity at the time was actually viewed by tue intellectuals of the time as being a cheap rip off of pagan philosophies.

It doesn't have to be. Luther ensured that we can read and interpret the bible however the fuck we want you Chatolicuck.

Violence against other religions is justified by Jesus aka God made man on earth trying to maim jews when he hunted them with a whip.

I'm an Irish Protestant actually, or was raised Protestant. Went to a religious school as a kid and all I ever heard there was the peace and love for all mankind stuff. And now you have TV shows like Vikings glorifying the pagan ways along with pagan inspired video game mythology. Smashing Kristians with Mjolnir is cooler than washing and kissing peasant's feet.

Paganism of nordcucks - memetic bullshit, created in 19-20 centuries.
Paganism of Roman empire - was much more developed and nice than Christianity.

Make your own religion. You will always be happy.

Most Christians are rightly ashamed that that kind of thing is part of their religions history.

actually, the fact that we have ANYTHING about them is due to christians writing texts about them, or copying pagan historical works that talked about them(both of those options are filled with biases and propaganda in places, but hey).

ALMSIVI is not my tribnul, they are Outlander sympathisers and probably agents of the Four Corners of the House of Troubles :-DDD. Nerevar and Vvardenfel not Emperor and Morrowind ok. Praise Azura.

Why do you think that paganism could not?
If anything it has a greater capacity for thought, since philosophy and spirituality could be kept separate.
Think like how you could have a native religion, like any Germanic/Greco-Roman/Celtic one with a heavy emphasis on a lifestyle philosophy like Stoicism or Epicureanism.
Wouldn't be all that dissimilar to Shinto+Buddhism.

How mentally damaged do you have to be to act like people can't or don't move from one religion to another all the time when you yourself have done so?

Islam is actually very shallow and devoid of depth. It lacks content.

Considering Christian polemicists did nothing but throw around baseless charges and exaggerate beliefs to ridiculous lengths concerning pagans or heretics, we might as well not even have any record of what these people believed in.
