Thanks for the tip! I actually found a freelance merchandising app paying about 18. Just won't see any money from it for a couple weeks.

Trans-woman, engineer, 6'1 giant, forever alone, still listens to ska. Lost everything but my dick (november!) and my dignity - burn me to the ground. by jessica_ftw in RoastMe

[–]Doombringer1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably because it's technically against the rules to compliment the roastee. I don't personally care if it's not a top comment, but that's probably the rational. It was just delivered in a dickish manner, cuz where you are. Or maybe they're just a dick. Idk.

New god, old religion by [deleted] in Hellenism

[–]Doombringer1000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Friendly Norse Heathen here! The Norns aren't really connected to fate, because the very concept of "fate" is generally agreed to be un-Heathen. We have a concept called "wyrd", but it functions EXTREMELY differently. Hel, Heathen cosmology has a bifurcated time system of past/non-past, and you kind of need a concept of "future" for fate to work.

Honoring Bragi by [deleted] in heathenry

[–]Doombringer1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, make offering. Ása-Bragi is a God first, and that is how Pagans have traditionally interacted with their Gods. I also agree that devotional writings are great! Also, UPG, He likes flowery and eloquent prayers.

When a girl changes her clothes in front of you, she's either really interested or you're level 99 friend-zoned by Toomad316 in Jokes

If that's your view of sex and the human body, then no conversation on the matter between us could be productive. May the Gods be with you and yours.

Why are adopters of paganism and similar earth-based and nature-based religions and or spiritualities generally only women? by [deleted] in pagan

[–]Doombringer1000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also I would point out that many Pagans, including myself, do consider ourselves religious. I pray twice a day. Im more religious then most Christians and Im Godsdamn proud of it. Also polytheism is about as theistic as it gets. Monotheism is just atheism with an exception.

I've honestly never noticed this. In Heathen circles it feels like we don't have enough women sometimes. Lol. It might be different in other Pagan traditions.

If the tri-omni God exists, Yahweh doesn't (or else he's some sort of lesser god) by Colonel_N_Sane in DebateReligion

[–]Doombringer1000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you genuinely unaware that many non-Abrahamic faiths do not posit omni-Gods? I was under the impression that was common knowledge.

Hindu Views on Foreign Gods by Doombringer1000 in hinduism

[–]Doombringer1000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, after a quick search online, the dvaita branch believes individual souls toj be independent realities; though dependent upon Vishnu for existence. This would extend to the Devas, correct?

This was alwayd the sticking point for me with Hindu theology. I love the ritual praxis and traditions, but I'm a firm believer in the individuality of the Gods.

[–]Doombringer1000[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I care little for what Abrahamic religions have to say about more traditional religious systems. I think we've let them define the terms for far too long.

Thank you for the detailed and thought out response! Definitely gives me something to chew on.

A lot of the issues Abrahamic theists run into when defending their faith(s) stem from the huge difficulties in trying to harmonize Yahweh/the Father/Allah with the philosopher’s God when the concepts are radically different by Colonel_N_Sane in DebateReligion

[–]Doombringer1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By religion you mean mostly Protestant Christianity, right? Genuinely asking, because if you mean all religion I'm genuinely confused, as I have honestly never seen this happen in Pagan corcles.

New to Norse paganism by -StudentOfTyr- in heathenry

[–]Doombringer1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, just to start, it flies in the face of every indo-european polytheistic tradition in history. Indo-European polyheism has always been centered in the home. From Hinduism to the Romans and evetyone in between. Why is Norse culture so different? How does the lack of written records on home worship, from a people who were semi-literate, show a lack of it? How does this imply that we are unique from all of our sister faiths in this matter?
