Things to Watch Out For in Hellenic Polytheism (WIP)

hellenismossuggestion:

I decided to write this after reading Timothy Jay Alexander’s old homophobic statements. Here are some tips for what to look for in sketchy people in Hellenic Polytheism and Hellenismos – I hope they are helpful!.

• Talk of restoring our religion to its “rightful place”
• An “ethnic” or “racial” focus to their worship
• Focus on having and rearing children with the same religion (ie., indoctrination to force continuation of our faith)
• Calls for violence
• Labeling people who ask for basic respect or rights as whiny, etc.
• Saying our faith is superior to any other

• Fixation on hatred for monotheistic religions

• Bigotry
• Claiming that a big event is coming, or that they themselves are important to some big scale cosmic event
• Using free speech as a “get out of jail” card for any bigotry
