Druids? Aliens? Will we ever know exactly who built Stonehenge? - love the Spinal Tap reference BTW

Celtic Druids were an aincient priest hood from northern europe who find their roots back to the old Phenician Canaanite(spelling) system. They were into majic and worshiped Merlin and you will always see a wand or staff in pictures etc of them. The staff or wand was made from the wood of a Holly tree which is where we get Hollywood. And they are still working their majic today through movies etc. The way the world is today and has been for a long time is hugely influenced by the Druid system and is all by design.

Utter twaddle.

[@Wotsitorlabart]

We know next to nothing about the Druids and what little we do know is open to different interpretations. They have no influence on the modern world.

[@toddfather7541]

@@Wotsitorlabart Not true!! They have always and continue to have a massive influence on the world. Like you said YOU don't know much about the druids. You think they have no influence because that's the power of thier magic. Can you give more info on your claim they have no influence. I don't like replys with no substance. It's just words. You heard of Columbia entertainment? Same thing I bet ya didn't know Australia is actually a state under Columbia. The entire world operates NOT how you think it does. All you said was druids have no influence on the world?? Got to do better than that bro. As it is you said nothing

Fascinating, as usual. DEREK SMALLS: (infuriatingly calmly) Are we going to play 'Stonehenge' tomorrow night? DAVID St.HUBBINS: (furiously) No, we're NOT going to play f**king 'Stone 'enge'!
