@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @risperdoll https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/christianity-based-paganism/ luke smith, for all of his inherent being luke smith, is 100% correct in his angle of attack on the vast majority of neopagan constructions existing today

> The most direct cultural link between modern man and antiquity is the Orthodox Christian Church.

@apophis @OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @risperdoll I don't hold the belief that Orthodoxy has an exclusive claim to that distinction, but it certainly has one of the strongest claims to it

@allison @apophis @risperdoll I’m a Neo Gnostic so if I pretend hard enough we get a rlly strong claim to being the true followers of Christ

@allison @OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @risperdoll well he did say most direct in that particular sentence not only direct (and of course there are *actual* non-christian traditions out there most of which isn't in english)

that said,

> All this said, the absolute worst self-own possible would be someone who has direct and easy access to the Orthodox Church and abandons it or leaves it for a false “religion” that doesn’t even exist off of the internet and has no organic connection to reality, like Neo-Paganism.

i'm imagining myself as a hindutva and respectfully disagreeing with him here lol

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @apophis @risperdoll gnosticism is something between ancient paganism and modern protestantism in terms of how it approaches itself, but as long as you're being genuine in the beliefs you hold and not deluding yourself about the consequences of severing apostolic succession, I don't see a major problem with it
