10 MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT PAGANISM || Scarlet Ravenswood

[@TheSvartulfr]

Thank you for pointing out eating meat is more in line with ancient pagan tradition as opposed to the new fad of vegetarianism and veganism. the northern tribes throughout the world ate meat as did most other nations.

[@kefisher7218]

I really enjoyed your point about veganism and vegetarianism! I’m a pagan who just happens to be vegan as well, but I don’t feel as though those things have any correlation, and eating animal products certainly doesn’t make you a “bad pagan.” Very good point on the historical context of eating meat, as well :)

[@gracieboatwright1908]

Loved it all. Animal sacrifice isn't something I've ever done, though I would consider it. If you eat meat, is it really better to buy it from the store, not knowing what that animal went through before death? Depending on how the sacrifice is done, you can eat that meat knowing the animal had a good life that was ended quickly and its sacrifice to your continued life was honored properly as well as whatever deity you are worshipping. I feel that is a beautiful way to honor the sustenance an animal gives to your body and life force.

[@Master_Blackthorne]

In ancient Rome if you wanted an animal sacrifice, you went to the butcher, told them what temple you wanted it delivered to, and they took care of it. Easier than ordering a pizza. Personally I think most of the pot roast was eaten by the priests, but they got to eat too.

[@antigonarosaura7845]

Great video and I adore all of your content 🙂 Also, I just wanted to add a misconception which I've heard several times in the past - that "all Norse Pagans/Heathens are white supremacists" 🙄 while some are, many of us are not. I've actually been approached about this before, as I wear a beautiful Mjölnir with runes on my left arm and happen to shave my head (just because it's comfortable). Someone a few years ago began questioning me about politics and race, which have nothing to do with the faith itself. My wife is disabled and I have a biracial cousin and love the boy to death, so imagine the level of annoyance I've experienced due to the blatant ignorance of a few people 😑

[@Critic115]

Nice video! I just don't think you can compare eating meat nowadays with the eating of meat in old pagan societies. Of course they ate meat back then but back then everything was more in balance. The meat industry is literally destroying mother earth nowadays. Not saying everyone should go vegan/vegetarian but times change.

[@denisfowler7367]

I find it sad that people who are normally a very care ing about out fragile earth care so little for the domestic animals on this planet that they refer to as stock, there is no such thing as a humane killing, no animal wants to die yet we as humans bring these poor creatures into this world only to be killed mostly horrifically simply for the sake of our taste buds, so very sad!

Thank you for sharing all the great pagan information. We watch all your videos.

[@inthenebula92]

On the topic of “crazy feminists,” I get what you're saying in that there isn't necessarily a connection between feminism specifically and paganism; but I would disagree slightly in that I have found my fellow pagans to be overwhelmingly left-leaning, and the left fundamentally includes feminist ideology. I'm a centrist and I have yet to find pagans that are similar politically; in the same vein, I have yet to find centrists who wouldn't scoff at the fact I'm a pagan, because they're often more of the scientific, atheistic type. By definition, the more inclusive ideology of those on the left is significantly more likely to hold space for pagans, or to create them, because it has the right characteristics. Whereas those on the right, or in the centre, don't have the same characteristics of openness, creativity, compassion, and self-expression that the left does; but more of independence, logic, and tradition. That is not to say there are no right-wing pagans or witches, but it's far less common, and as such, the generalization is made because it applies to the majority. Regardless, I honestly just feel isolated in an increasingly divided society, unable to talk about the full scope of my beliefs (spiritual and political) because everyone has become so partisan.

[@ScarletRavenswood]

Thanks for your great comment. I definitely agree that the majority of pagans are left-leaning. I hope that by spreading awareness and understanding about Paganism, a wider contingent of the population and political spectrum will become more open to Paganism. :)

[@WilliamAlvesExperience]

You are probably talking about Wiccans. That is because of the relations Wicca has with the new age movement, vegetarianism and progressive values of the time it was invented. Remember that the new age movement (just as any movement) have political implications, and participating in a movement will also means that such movement will influence your political opinions. In Europe, pagans are mostly far right lean, that's because their beliefs are around tradition and traditions are a conservative thing not a progressive one.

[@creedzen]

Centrist pagan here.👋 We are a rare breed indeed.

[@Shibestrike]

Newagers and “witches” are generally left, sure. But actual real practicing and traditional pagans are almost all right wing by their belief in nature. The natural order and laws are not fluid based on one’s opinion. The left consistently tries to blur lines and transgress order. This is highly offensive to the gods. All of these descriptions of yours are a complete projection of your own opinion and do not reflect reality at all, or only describes abrahamic society style conservaturds, which doesn’t apply to pagans at all. We aren’t fans of bandwagon “pagans” that insert their political ideology into everything and pretend the gods give a shit at all about their petty grievances and lack of a feeling of control in life and their self-centeredness in their egotistical attempts at communing with nature and the gods. The gods are not interested in your ideology. Leave that shit “at the door”. Leftists should read Plato, Zarathustra, and Buddhas to shed their extremely high regard of self relative to their beliefs.

Maybe pre Iron Age. Those people lived such freedoms that we cant even imagine.

The bible says other gods exist but that you shouldn't worship them. However keep in mind it's an outdated obsolete teaching that belonged to the Jews and in the sermons, Jesus overturned them. He also never said anything about pagans worshipping other gods as bad, he only disliked pagan folkism and their prayers being too long. Also you can believe in various gods and goddesses even from other groups, it's called eclectic paganism

Hi Hanna, I made a video a couple years ago that better explains the differences. kzbin.info/www/bejne/emGXmJhni6-fo6c In general Paganism is an umbrella term and Wicca falls under that umbrella. For example, Baptists are Christian, but just because you're a Christian that doesn't mean you're also a Baptist (you could be a Evangelical or a Catholic for example). So Wiccans are Pagans but not all Pagans are Wiccans (they could be Heathens, Druids, etc) Hope that explanation helps. :)

This is why the Bible said I do not permit women to speak.

Glad we don't follow your bible which permits all sorts of bigotry and heinous crimes.

People are stuck on the Leslie Neilson Naked Gun and its not true. Everyone needs to stop thinking like, People Against Good And Nice Not true. You're not here to help yourself to a better future, but the little guy to get the step up and hopefully help humanity evolve.
