Dirk Howat said:If you believe in God and his Son Jesus Christ then you are Christian. Come On. Remember, there were many versions of Christianity before. Many thought he was just an incarnation, some a wise man, others the son of God in which we could never emulate or imitate (Catholics). Many thought he was a "superman" in which others could attain his status.
At any rate,
I am reconstructing the Proto-Indo-European religion. This religion was the original religion of Celtic, Germanic, Roman, Greek, Indo-Aryan, etc..... peoples. Its my ancestors religon. Its not foreign or alien to me.
Judiasm , Islam and Judeo/Christianity is not an Indo-European religion. They have a foreign tradition, a foreign mindset. God is external to themselves, they worship, they submit. I view them as athiests (w/o God, e.g. jotunns).
The proto religion later evolved into Arya Dharma in the east (known today as Hinduism) which later, a prophet created a new religion called Zorastrianism in which Christianity gets is essence from. Good vs. Evil, Purity, Redeemer who would incarnate and create a new world. In the west, it became Celtic relgion and Germanic. So you have alot of aftereffects of the orginal religion.
I am constructing the orginal religion within a Norse context/culture..
