It is honestly sad to see that Christians have been oppressing Pagans for centuries.
I have no problem with them doing this, but when did Euro-Paganism come back? I mean I know about Indian and African paganism surving, but I thought the whole celtic thing died like a few thousand years ago.

During the 70s, some people who watched the Wicker Man were like "What? I totally want to burn virgin police officers alive so my harvest will be better." Four decades later, the paparazzi are all secretly pagans who wish to kill off actors by driving them nuts to the point where by embarassing and exposing their secrets they will drive them to suicide and ensure a better harvest.

Better harvests are good for the economy.

Well yeah it is a cult, sadly about a third of the world follows this Christian cult though so there isn't a lot we can do to prevent them from harming others.

Pope Joan wrote:Christianity has a long history of taking over pagan holidays and turning them into Christian ones. So what they need is some clever spin doctor to discover an ancient connection with the history and dogma of the church which coincides with midsummer.
Catholics might choose the moment when Jesus gave Peter "The keys to the kingdom" and said "On this Rock I will build my church."
I'd like to make it Sermon on the Mount day. It's a fine piece of teaching, and it could have happened at midsummer; a mountain would have been a refreshing venue in the midst of the heat of the season.
Or we could have it be Forgiveness Day, when Jesus did not condemn the woman caught in adultery and convinced the irate elders not to stone her. That would be a worthwhile holiday.
Just like Christmas, with its trees and wreaths, we could adopt pagan practices to adorn the newly discovered holiday. Maybe running around naked? Do you pagans do that at Midsummer? It could be fun.
My Pictish ancestors used to go into battle naked, you know.
