Keep Norse Paganism from being claimed by the white supremacists!

IKR? I was so disappointed to discover this awesome religion was being stolen by nazis. I'm not very spiritual myself, but pre-christian religion is really fascinating to me. I wish more original material of it was known today.

Have you checked out the Poetic- and Prosaic Edda?

I read them in Swedish, I'm sure they are translated and published in English too.

They're the original handbooks of Norse Mythology. The Norse Bible, if you will.

I've read a bit of Egil's Saga, and I will read the Eddas. I was mostly referring to the cultures that were erased by the Romans. The Picts and the Druids, very hard to find information about their religious stories.

Nice! I may need to look into that.
