This video is age restricted because it’s truthful and recognizes reality, not because it’s obscene or racist. It’s just YouTube doing it’s regular attempt at censorship. Watch it and tell me how the UK is not just a bit ahead of us and we’re soon to join them (think Charlotte, NC for example). I have a friend who’s a Royal Marine in England. He said we’re lucky because we have space. Room to move away from the invaders. Well, that space is finite.
Note: There is no reason one cannot accept and worship Christ while embracing one’s pre-Church life-ways. Christ is not my enemy. Modernity and the Church doctrines are.
For many people, paganism is not a new religious trend, but rather an expression of a worldview that they understand to be deeply rooted in nature, in the life and in the traditions of their ancestors. From this point of view, people do not only become pagans through a conscious decision, but rather rediscover something that is perceived as an original connection with the world.
The pagan soul is like an old song that sounds through the forests, a whisper from the earth that reminds people of their origins. It lives in respect for the forces of nature, in awe of the circle of life and in the awareness of being part of a larger whole. The earth is not seen as a mere resource, but as a living soil full of memories, stories and experiences of past generations.
This connection is revealed in the elements. Fire stands for change, creativity and renewal. The water reminds us of the depth of life and the ways of our ancestors. The wind embodies freedom and movement, while the earth gives stability, home and fertility. Nature is not viewed as something alien, but rather as a living counterpart with which humans have a relationship.
Over the course of history, the religious and cultural landscapes of Europe changed profoundly. With the spread of Christianity, many pagan traditions disappeared or were transformed into new forms. Historians point out that this process affected not only religious ideas, but also social structures, customs and forms of communal identity.
Those areas that shaped daily life were particularly affected. Healers, seers and knowledge keepers lost their social status or were viewed as carriers of unwanted teachings. In many places, festivals and calendars that were based on the seasons were replaced or superimposed by Christian holidays. The veneration of ancestors, the memory of one’s origins and the connection to the community received new interpretations.
Sacred places also experienced change. In many places, springs, groves, mountains and other places of worship lost their original meaning or were integrated into new religious contexts. Rituals that previously accompanied social life, jurisprudence or community decisions were replaced by ecclesiastical forms. This not only changed religious practices, but also the way communities organized their coexistence.
In many pre-Christian traditions, women played an important role as guardians of knowledge, healing and customs. With social change, many of these functions were restricted or lost public importance. Likewise, oral stories, songs and narratives came under pressure, even though they had been carriers of memory and identity for centuries.
Nevertheless, the old ideas never completely disappeared. They lived on in folk customs, legends, songs, festivals and in the close relationship many people have with nature. In this perspective, paganism is understood less as a clearly defined religion than as an attitude towards life: respect for nature, responsibility for the community, remembrance of one’s ancestors and the willingness to actively shape one’s own destiny.
Every sunrise is seen as a new promise, every rain as a blessing and every season as part of an eternal cycle of growth and decay. The songs of the birds, the rustling of the forests and the flowing waters remind us that all life is connected.

It has been a while since I have written about Russia and the war in Ukraine, but Vladimir Putin’s speech on Tuesday (23 June) to graduates of Russia’s higher military academies and security institutions (military cadets/officers) at the Kremlin merits attention because it carries an indirect but profound warning to the West.
I am focusing on the Western threat section of the speech because it signals that Russia, in reaction to Western actions, is prepared for a wider war. The speech followed a consistent four-part structure: the West manufactures the threat; it then accuses Russia of creating it; this is a historically repeated pattern going back to 1941; and Russia’s response is both military preparedness and a principled alternative vision of world order. What made this speech most salient was the explicit statement that NATO has moved from proxy support to open preparation for direct war — an escalatory claim calibrated to remind the graduates, and the broader audience, of the stakes of their service.
Putin’s central argument was structural rather than event-specific. He described the West’s action plan as very simple: first they create threats for Russia, forcing it to take action necessary for defending and protecting itself, and then they immediately accuse Russia of all mortal sins to justify their continued aggressive policy and aggressive actions against Russia. This framing — Russia as perpetual reactor, never initiator — is the foundational claim on which all other arguments in the speech rest.
Putin minced no words… He stated that Russia is ready to promptly and appropriately respond to any external and internal threats, and that in accordance with the State Armament Programme, Russia is focused on modernizing its nuclear triad and the Army, and strengthening the combat capability of the Aerospace Forces and the Navy. The explicit mention of the nuclear triad in direct proximity to the discussion of Western preparation for war against Russia was a pointed message to Donald Trump and the rest of NATO.
It is interesting for the reason that it is plausible: Trump has clearly been frustrated by his inability to settle any of the conflicts he had promised easily zip up. And recently, on the heels of the Iranian memorandum saga, he even admitted that he would now be “turning his attention” back on Ukraine. As such, it’s believable that Trump would have given secret encouragement for Ukraine to “shape the battlefield” in order to “soften” Russia up ahead of any new attempts by the Trump administration to arm-twist the Russians into concessions.
It’s plausible that Trump believes by exacting heavy “costs” on Russia will create favorable conditions for Putin to negotiate and compromise during whatever next round of attempts that Trump’s stooges (Rubio, Lutnick, Witkoff, etc.) have planned; as the above states, Trump reportedly doesn’t believe Putin will do anything without “pressure”.
But if this is the case, then Trump badly misunderstands the Russian temperament and general change of sentiment that has occurred in the post-Anchorage era, wherein several top Russian officials—from Lavrov to Ushakov—have openly nailed shut the coffin of the so-called ‘Spirit of Anchorage’.
Question: Why? Why can’t Trump just stop interfering in foreign affairs. Defund Israel and defund Ukraine. Would money, energy, and attention not be better applied to Make America Great Again? That’s what was promised. Instead of a national savior, it seems we elected a traitorous clown. Peace president my big ole backside.
Note: Given what we see in NC and around the rest of America and in Europe, E.M. Burlingame has an answer.
You have heard me before—on the edge of the field of battle, when the ache in your chest was the only truth left. You heard me again in the quiet of your home, when the weight of the fathers who came before you settled on your shoulders. Now, at the end of all our speaking, I must speak of the instrument by which the enemy has stolen what our fathers built: the corrupted courts, the unaccountable enforcement, the institutions that were meant to limit power have become the weapons of those who would make themselves powerful.
Throughout our history the pattern is the same. The courts of law and the officers who enforce them, the institutions that sit in judgment and the men who wield that judgment, become corrupted. They overreach. They cease to be servants of the law and become powers unto themselves. They do not only abuse the poor and the weak—they turn, in time, on the very nobles and kings who empowered them or looked away while the rot took hold. Unaccountable judiciary and enforcement always become political tyrants and malevolent agents. They abuse the people first, then they consume or undermine the hands that thought they held the leash. This is not theory. It is the most ancient of fights.
When a judge acquits a violent criminal, that judge is not merely making a legal error. He is making a choice—a choice that endangers every man, woman, and child in that community. When that criminal goes on to harm another, the blood is on the judge’s hands as surely as if he had wielded the weapon himself. When a jury fails to convict the guilty, they are not exercising their independence; they are failing in their duty to protect the innocent. When an officer enforces an unjust law or turns a blind eye to the guilty, he is not serving the law; he is serving the corruption. What, then, does this hard reset demand? Let us be specific—for vagueness serves the enemy, and clarity serves the Common Man.
First: That every judge who has demonstrated bias—who has twisted the law to serve faction, who has acquitted the guilty or convicted the innocent on the basis of favor, who has shown that he cannot be trusted to judge evenly—be removed from the bench. Not reformed. Removed. The seat is not a right; it is a trust, and it has been broken.
Second: That no foreigner—no one who has not been born to the soil, who has not deep ties to the history and community of the place, who has not demonstrated through sacrifice and blood that he is bound to the inheritance—be permitted to serve in any capacity in the judiciary, law enforcement, or any institution of justice. This is not new. It is the ancient law of the Acts of Settlement, reaffirmed across centuries of our history. We demand that it be enforced.
Third: That every officer of the law, every juror, every participant in the machinery of justice, be held accountable for the consequences of their actions. If they acquit the guilty and that guilty man harms the innocent, they are answerable. If they enforce an unjust law, they are answerable. If they fail in their duty to protect the weak, they are answerable. No immunity. No shield of office. No protection from the law they claim to serve. The blood of the innocent is on their hands, and they must answer for it.
Fourth: That juries be drawn from the whole body of the Commons—not from the professional class, not from the politically connected, not from the pool of those who have lost their nerve, not from those who have no stake in the community, not from the factionally malevolent. Juries are the conscience of the community. They must be composed of men who have skin in the game, who have sons to protect, who have fathers to honor, who have a stake in the future of the place they judge.
Fifth: That the institutions of justice be returned to their only legitimate purpose: the protection of the innocent and the punishment of the wicked. Not the protection of the tyrant, the petty powerful. Not the punishment of the inconvenient. The law must serve the people, not the other way around.
The choice is made in the ache of your chest and the iron in your grip.
DEMAND THE REMOVAL OF THE CORRUPT!
DEMAND THE EXPULSION OF FOREIGN JUDGES AND OFFICIALS!
DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR EVERY PARTICIPANT IN THE MACHINERY OF JUSTICE!
DEMAND THE RESTORATION OF JURIES DRAWN FROM THE WHOLE BODY OF THE COMMONS!
