Many people still to this day worship Odin as the traditional god of the Anglo-Saxon race — and these same people also believe that Christianity — supposedly an alien, Middle Eastern religion that worships a Semitic desert god — was forcibly imposed upon their pagan ancestors in Europe, subplanting their “real” noble warrior god — named Woden or Odin — and thereafter cut off the Saxon race from their true and “natural” spiritual leader.
There is only one small problem with this fanciful narrative — Woden was a real man — a historically-documented ancestral chieftain — that pagans long ago turned into a god — and began to worship as a god out of sheer ignorance, according to Medieval historian Richard Fahey:
No detailed account of Woden and his mythic adventures survives from early medieval England; nevertheless, this ancestral figure remains present in the cultural imagination of the English people even centuries later. The famous ecclesiastical historian Bede is the first known Anglo-Saxon author to describe this mythic genealogy in Book I, Capitula 15 of his Historia claiming: ‘Duces fuisse perhibentur eorum primi duo fratres Hengist et Horsa….Erant autem filii Uictgilsi, cuius pater Uitta, cuius pater Uecta, cuius pater Uoden, de cuius stirpe multarum prouinciarum regium genus originem duxit,’ [or translated into English]:
“From the first their leaders (the Anglo-Saxons) were held to be two brothers, Hengest and Horsa….They were sons of Wictgils, whose father was Witta, whose father was Wecta, whose father was Woden.”
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, surviving in nine extant manuscripts and probably completed under King Ælfred the Great in the 9th century, reiterates Bede’s Wodinic genealogy. Almost a century later, in a Latin adaptation known as Chronicon Æthelweardi, the 10th century historian Æthelweard (descended from the 9th-century King Æthelred I, the elder brother of the King Ælfred the Great) laments Woden’s divine status within the Norse Pantheon. In his chronicle, Æthelweard complains that ignorant Scandinavian pagans have mistakenly deified Woden, whom Æthelweard identifies as king of the barbarians. He bemoans how these pagans honor Woden as a god rather than the ancestral chieftain that Æthelweard, like so many Anglo-Saxon authors, understood him to be.
Well after the Norman Conquest of 1066, Woden was still making his way into English manuscripts, especially in depictions of Anglo-Saxon royal lineages. At roughly the same time as Snorri was composing his Edda, and Geoffrey of Monmouth his Historia, Wodinic genealogy remains present in the English written record, remembering the Anglo-Saxon kings of old who trace their ancestry back to this deified chieftain.
The Libellus de primo Saxonum uel Normannorum adventu—located in a 12th-century manuscript (London, British Library Cotton Caligula A. viii) and often attributed to Symeon of Durham—contains an illustration of Woden, crowned as ancestral king of the Anglo-Saxons. The text surrounding the illustration describes the royal lineages of the kingdoms of Kent, Mercia, Deira, Bernicia and Wessex respectively, each claiming descent and the right to rule from this legendary figure.
A strikingly similar image of Woden as a crowned English ancestral figure surrounded by his royal descendants accompanies the 12th-century Historia Anglorum by Henry, Archdeacon of Huntingdon (located in Cambridge Corpus Christi College MS 66). This text connects Woden with Henry II, the contemporary king of England.
Likewise, Ernulf, Bishop of Rochester describes the kings of East Anglia as descendants of the legendary Woden in his 12th century Textus de Ecclesia Roffensi (found in Rochester Cathedral Library, MS A.3.5).
In medieval English historiography, Woden appears to have been used to establish dynastic legitimacy for kings in early medieval England. Long after Woden may have been worshiped as a god, well past the Anglo-Saxon conversion and even through the Norman Conquest, the importance of this legendary figure continues to loom large in the cultural imagination of those living and ruling in medieval England. Although today nowhere near as popular or well known as Arthur, the so-called king of the Britons, the earliest kings ruling in England turned to Woden, not Arthur, in order to affirm and legitimize their royal lineages.
European paganism is very popular among many White Nationalists who believe in this false notion that Christianity is an “alien” religion — but this view requires willful ignorance of a significant part of early European history.
Europeans did not grow like mushrooms up out of the native European soil — nor did they descend from Cro Magnons or Neanderthals.
White Europeans migrated up into Europe from the Near East — no one disputes that the Roman Empire included the Near East and Levant, the seat of Christianity.
At the time of Christ, the Near East — including Anatolia (modern Turkey) and Judea — were inhabited largely by White people — extending across most of the northern coast of Africa.
They traveled by ship across the Mediterranean along the southern and western coasts of Europe — and they migrated up through the Caucasus Mountains — through the “Pass of Israel” — which is why Europeans are called Caucasians.
Thus, Christianity has been a “European” religion from its foundations — the apostle Paul sent his epistles to White European peoples — mainly to people in what is now modern Greece, Rome, and the seat of what became the Christian Byzantine or Eastern Roman Empire.
We know from history that most of this area was eventually overrun by Arabs — who now occupy — and live on top of — much of this former White homeland — the literal cradle of our civilization.
The ancestors of the Saxons were the Goths and related peoples — and the ancestors of the Goths were the Scythians — and the homeland of the Scythians is the general area of the ancient Parthian Empire — the rival of Rome in the Near East.
And if you look at a map of ancient Parthia, you will see that it largely coincides with the ancient Assyrian Empire.
So these Scythians comprised a portion of the “lost” northern ten tribes of the House of Israel from the Assyrian captivity — the so-called “gentiles” of the Bible.
Christ is the God of the House of Israel — hardly the “alien” God of an “alien” race.
Woden/Odin was a Saxon, a Goth, a Scythian, an Israelite — but he wasn’t God.
Woden’s God was Christ — he just may not have known it yet.
Gus Chiggins says, “Catholics are a cult and run by jewish freemasonry”
Do you consider the American Christians who waged war against Germany on behalf of the Bolshevik communist Jews a cult?
Are the Christians who use the Bible and their god (military might) and go around the world waging perpetual wars, plundering non-western countries on behalf of the Jews a cult?
I have listened to Christians who worship Jews make the same claim, while those very same Jews call Christians racist, White supremacist, ect, ect. Just curious….what is the difference between and Catholic and a Christian?
I am a traditional Catholic but was born and raised as a protestant, so let me answer ur question..
Christ did in fact found His Church before He left.. Its just an undeniable fact..If u look it up in the Bible, it is clearly and plainly stated by Christ..Anyone who can read that scripture and deny what Christ is saying about Simon, then u can just say anything about any verse, which is what protestants do..Thats why there are 1,000s of protestant ‘denominations’ all with their own opinion..
So to answer ur question–what is the difference between a ‘christian’ and a Catholic, I would answer that christians believe whatever opinion they feel easy with and Catholics carefully maintain Apostolic Succession and tradition to make sure heresies are kept out of the Faith..
Also note that name changes recorded in the Bible are ALWAYS a huge thing.. Abram to Abraham,
Saul to Paul, there just a few more.. So what about Simon to Rockie.. Peter as in a rock foundation..
cant be anymore clear..But protestants are diluded away from such thinking by diversive arguments about big rocks/little rocks… meaningless opinions again..
Since you cite me in this blog, let me take a minute to make clear that this is not honest use of my work on Woden. I denounce the arguments being made in this blog as a racist historical revision and a blatant effort to affirm historically dubious, white supremacist narratives….
You seem to have mis-characterized us as “white supremacists”. We clearly stated that it is so-called Godless White Nationalists who wrongly believe that Odin/Woden is their ancestral god. We do not believe any such thing, and reject that categorically. Nor do we believe in any way your work endorses or supports White Nationalism or “supremacy”. In fact we have written many articles critiquing Godless White Nationalism, but you clearly didn’t take the time to find that out.
We completely denounce whatever you mean by “white supremacy”. We are Christians who understand the historical connection between native Europeans and the ancient Israelites–and we completely reject the idea that understanding that historical connection is a form of “white supremacy”. In fact, we believe the opposite — that understanding that historical connection should make us humble before God and have no interest in “ruling” over other people.
We quoted your article word-for-word, so it’s spurious to claim that we’ve taken you “out of context”. You can disagree with our conclusions, but if you believe we are suggesting that your work endorses White Nationalism, you’ve completely misunderstood the purpose of our article. In fact, if anything, your article refutes what many White Nationalists believe, and that’s why we cited it.
Hi Richard Fahey,
It maybe none of my business but I am jumping in anyway, because your use of the term RACIST, is very disturbing. Because I have observed White people in the civilized western world psychologically torturing their fellow White people with this word to score political points and pander to the socalled minorities, I did my home work to find out the origins.
Racism is the word weapon the Bolshevik communist Jewish minority used to put the White Christian majority on a guilt trip and against each other. Anyone of good conscience would refrain from this cruelty and sending this Marxist psychological torture weapon to the dustbin of history but the addiction to the “if it feels good do it” culture seems hard to break.
The American version of this torture weapon on steroids is “Racist White supremacist”…..putting some people on a guilt trip to look morally superior. In the sense that, I am White but I am not like those White people…..the same way Jews play the morally corrupt game. They exploit Black people to foment hatred against White people, because those White people are Racist, White supremacist oppressors of Black people, while Jews in fact put the exploitation of Black people in motion and are on both sides of the political aisle benefiting from it, while White people take the fall for their crap.
So Richard, take a deep breath and think about it for a second…..you were born in it and you will die in it.
People cannot deify anyone. Catholics are a cult and run by jewish freemasonry and they are using Xiden just like Hitler to the same ends. No way in million years would the PTB allow another Catholic POTUS and AG at the same time. This is how you know Xiden is not a true JFK catholic. He is NWO.
After JFK the PTB vowed to never let a POTUS and AG to be of the same faith and especially not bioligical brothers for fear of insurrection and losing control of the fed. EO 11110 is the reason JFK and his brother were killed. Barr never even wrote something up like EOor he would get killed. Barr is a jew. Easy to tell. Usually look the same “cobblepots” short, obese, dark oily olive (not white) skin, droopy eyelids, low ears and big nose. Describing a races’ physical features is not anti-semitic. Why do the jews get their very own extra special word when everyone else gets “discriminated” against?
Jesus rules lives and reigns!
You are comparing Biden with Hitler???
How so? Are you suggesting Adolf Hitler was working consciously for International Jewry? In other words ………….. Hitler knew he was a tool for Jewry.
This is a popular theory gaining traction — See Jim Condit/Christopher Jon Bjerkness (jew) et. al.
I’d like to hear your opinion.
I am always in awe of the power of the Gospel when I read in Acts how the apostles moseyed in to some of the towns and made Xtians of thousands in one go! Praise the Lord!
I am equally in awe when I open up a history book and find that a missionary moseyed in to some wee town in Europe and preached the Gospel and made Xtians out of thousands in one go! Praise the Lord!
The Gospel must have really rang true for a lot of those converts for them to just forsake their old gods like that.
The athesit White Nationalist crowd would do well to wonder WHY our forfathers, in many cases, but not all of course, dropped their old gods just like that…
Just my thoughts 🙂
Pagans and White Nationalists insist that Christianity was forced upon their Saxon ancestors at the point of a sword–submit or die. Yet they claim these Saxons were great warriors, feared by all, but some Christian missionaries pulled out swords and made them tremble? Forcible conversion may succeed in the short run, but over time, it will fail if the people are not truly on board with it. Look at Christian conversion in Africa. The second the missionaries turn their backs, the Africans are practicing voodoo again. If paganism were the natural state of the Saxons, the never could have built Christendom to the degree that they did. All of Europe was built on the foundation of Christ, and it would still be a Roman backwater if it had stayed pagan.
“Europeans did not grow like mushrooms up out of the native European soil — nor did they descend from Cro Magnons”
DNA says otherwise.
No, the genetic studies that allegedly connect Europeans to Cro Magnons (or Neanderthals) do so using a logical fallacy. “Because Europeans and Cro Magnons allegedly have these DNA sequences in common, they must be ancestors of one another.” The same can be said for earthworms. Europeans share about 80% of their genome with earthworms, but it is downright silly to therefore conclude that earthworms are the ancestors of Europeans.
DNA studies have been used to demoralize the White race, first by trying to convince them that they were descendants of apes in Africa. Then to convince them, as you believe, that their ancestors were cavemen.
Problem is: we know that huge populations of White people came up into Europe through the Caucasus Mountains, and they could not have been descendant of cavemen in Europe. They don’t want White Europeans to know the truth about their real ancestors — the 12 tribes of Israel — because there are imposters today known as “Jews” who have taken on that identity for themselves to deceive the world.
The DNA of cro magnon is basically identical to that of modern europeans. And actually yes having 80% dna to earthworms does mean we are related in some way. The closer that % gets, the more closely-related we are. I repeat, Cro Magnon is virtually identical to modern European DNA. You can’t lie or conjecture your way out of this fact. We are basically the same people. Sub-saharan Africans are not closely related to Cro Magnon because they’re not the same people. But they’re obviously closer to Cro Magnon than a worm. The logic you just attempted is beyond ridiculous.
You’re purposely dismissing this fact because you can’t figure out how to place it into your bible narrative so I will help you. Cro Magnon could have been the nephilim, or the offspring of angels, or whatever other piece of Genesis you want to use (and i’m not saying these aren’t true.. in fact i think they actually are based on early Cro Magnon). You’ll have to pick one… or just declare that the fossils are a total fabrication. But no other answer will suffice.
Wrong again. Blacks, like Cro Magnons, are a far more ancient race than Whites but share 99.8% DNA in common with Whites–yet they allegedly have no Cro Magnon or Neanderthal DNA. If that Cro Magnon DNA is so “similar” to ours, it must be in that 0.2% we do not share with Blacks. Patently absurd.
Despite that small fraction of DNA difference, Blacks are essentially a different species with completely different potentials and capabilities than Whites. There is zero proof Whites evolved or descended from Blacks. This is another logical fallacy that you are sticking to–that anatomical similarity or DNA similarity means “relatedness” whatever that means.
There is no evidence of Cro Magnons anywhere but Europe, and if they migrated anywhere else, like the Near East, there would be record of them there, but there is none, so what you are saying is pure speculation. “What if” isn’t more persuasive than “what is”.
The Nephilim are not part of the Adamic creation, just like Blacks are not, and therefore, they are not related to the White race.
The Bible says that man was created from the dust of the ground. He is related to no creature on this planet.
Which do you believe, the Bible, or the lies peddled under the pagan religion of “scientism”? If you serve God then serve Him, if you serve the world, then serve it. How long will you waver?
Oh and nobody is saying that we didn’t come up through the caucasus just because we’re related to Cro Magnon. In fact on the contrary, DNA indicates that a few thousand years ago most of our DNA did come up through that route. The DNA meanwhile of Cro Magnon in France and Spain etc. is nigh 40,000 years old.
Anything could have happened during that interim, likely a climate shift, to cause those people to migrate out of europe and into the levant. Even if the 40,000 yr time period is overstated, we’re still talking about huge lengths of time, and a forced migration can happen within a couple of years if it has to.
Our creator created every species separately, you find genetic “overlappings” in species, because he clearly reused DNA and did not make them from scratch. But indeed blacks are close to our DNA, because they once were not black, it is the curse of Ham/Canaan, maybe you should actually read it up and it may make you understand, the canaanites are very well described in our literature and you should check up, what they did to us and do again to us.
Canaanites are by divine law to never be allowed into our land, so black “israelites” is something, which equals breaking the mitzvot commandment.
“Modern jews” are just falling for earthly sins, because they want it easy like gentiles, which is bad.
“……..DNA says otherwise……………………”
Whoa……you just blew me away with your excellent argument.
No but seriously — what is your point? Where do you think the White man came from?
Who are you and what is your story?
The warm light of a campfire pierced the tangible dark of the miry bog, the crescent moon and night sky peering periodically past the windswept clouds. Outside of the light, dark seethed with the cries of its denizens. Around the campfire, men huddled for the heat, speaking in hushed tones to one another, contemplating their fate in this wasteland.
“… nor did they descend from Cro Magnons”, one man concluded grimly. The rest considered his words, the revelation reached deep down into their minds, calling to some long-suppressed truth. It flickered within them, threatening to intensify, bearing a promise to shine a light over this bog that no night could quench, and no fire could match.
Without notice, another man leapt out from the darkness. “DNA says otherwise!” he sneered. The flame of the camp intensified with his word, drowning out the flicker within each man. The momentary warmth from the fire had won them over, even though their wood was limited, and the fire had consumed their fuel all the quicker.
With pride in his heart at the spectacle of the fire, having entranced these simple men, the man lay his head down to rest. With hope in the campfire, they all slept feverishly in its warmth, the flicker of hope long since murdered.
In the sixth hour of night, the fire died, and the beasts of the bog had their fill.
Epic! Right up there with the Ducks and the Hens by Rockwell. 🙂
In my copy of the Prose Edda, it flat out says that Odin was descended from King David.
What does that mean, though? If Odin descended from King David, then he’d be an Israelite just as the article commentary points out. Christ was also descended of King David, but Christ was God incarnate as the promised Messiah in the Israelite prophecies. There was no prophecy of the coming of Odin. Just not clear on what your point is…..
I think the point is simply that Wodan was a man who could be traced to David, hence Abraham and Adam. He was ‘one of us’, and has an extra witness as to his actual existence. At least thats what i got from it.
Jesus was also descended from David on His human side, hence our ‘kinsman redeemer’ who can understand all our problems and can/did pay our ransom! I think the articles last sentence says it all. 🙂
I thought perhaps that “Sweatbox” was suggesting that the King David ancestry was proof of Odin’s alleged divinity…..
No, Odin was just a man, though an apparently remarkable one. I was merely sharing that, according to the Edda translation that I have, he got his right to rule because of his bloodline.
Excellent – thanx.
Maybe the fall of America will awaken some of our brothers…
Kowtowing to Wotan or the Olympians is acceptable to us. Worshiping the Galilean? No. We failed in our first attempt to stamp out the pernicious heresy but we’ve learned a great deal since then – and we won’t be foiled again. In fact some of the most ardent anti-Christians in our ranks were once members of that sect themselves… until they woke up and smelled the shekels. L’chaim!
