I use "the evils of free will" sarcastically in the communist "you must do as we tell you, because free will means you can do evil". God gave man free will, and arguably the angels too. You have the ability to make good or bad choices, and he's just banking on you making good choices while satan is the personification of bad choices.
So basically in retard speak what I'm trying to say is the pagan libshits basically are trying to say "Satan is good, he shows us why the ability to choose (other than getting your baby vacuumed out) is harmful and dangerous, so we should blindly listen to what our betters tell us to do."
Where did you get this idea that libshits are saying that choosing is harmful or dangerous? Their entire philosophy is basically about having as many choices as possible. Yes, it is often used to mask their own weakness, but that does not change the underlying principles.
While Christian (or really any non-libshit movement) politics aim to limit the amount of harmful choices people can make. You don't get to decide if using drugs is ok or not for you, state (or community) will make that decision for you.
This is extremely funny because yokai are basically just japanese children's bogeys. There are hundreds of whimsical variations: talking cats, sentient umbrellas, goblins that lick the grime off your toilet at night (no really), ghostly flaming wheels etc.
This person is taking a western christian conception of spirits/demons and applying it to a completely different culture. It's like a japanese guy asking for tips on summoning Rumplestiltskin
I need to write about a phenomenon in Finland that is intimately tied to woke Finnish paganism, that is, leftist Karelia-activism. Inspired by American and Canadian native activism, people with like one greatgreatgrandparent refugee from Karelia now complain how Finnish nationalists "oppress" them. Also the activists in most cases adhere to reinterpretation of Finnish paganism as matriarchal religion which goes completely against the original religion: Finno-ugrics are far more patriarchal than indo-Europeans, indo history is filled with female rulers, writings of female warriors, female war goddesses and hero. fugs have none of that.
On the cursory glance, the connection between leftists and Karelians seems non-existing, but leftists have discovered that a distant Karelian relative can be used to shame Finns for colonialism and racism. And because leftists don't believe in blood-ties but that everything is just "cultural", you're counted as Karelian if you're just accepted by the gang larping as indigenous activists and "feels". And if an ethnically Karelian person disagrees with them, his Karelianness can be denied as easily. Karelian activism springs from neo-leftism, and like mental illness and sexual minorities, and is just another way to score oppression points.
One of the charges against Finns by indigenous activists is that the pagan epic "Kalevala" was stolen from them, even though the incantations it consists of were gathered from entire area of Finland. Another charge is that Finnish colonialism lead to withering of Karelian language and culture due to "colonialist structures" or something, even though Finland fought for Karelians in East Karelian uprising and Continuation War (Operation Barbarossa) to save them from cultural genocide and Russification by the Bolsheviks.
In addition to this, Russian Federation (where Republic of Karelia resides) has been throwing fuel onto the fire and has promoted these leftist activists to drive a wedge into the Finnish population and the Karelian segment. Recently the biggest newspaper in Finland, Helsingin Sanomat, interviewed one of these pagan-indigenous activists about how Finns oppress Karelians. Her tiktok:
(good non-binary day to everyone)
Idk, tag me MATI...but I'm half Karelian and I'm so tired of being associated with these people...I guess this is how red injuns feel in USA.

Imagine wanting to be oppressed so badly you make up an entire fake religion and history of Karelians and pass it off as "authentic traditions." If they want to be oppressed so badly, why not just go to Karelia and start petitioning the Russian government to rejoin Karelia to Finland? Is being a pretend Sami not cool enough anymore in Scandinavia these days? I know there has to be a fuckton of those like there are Pretendians in the US/Canada.
Yeah I always found it pretty funny, some communist jewish teacher goes to the sacred island to tip fedora and expects nothing to happen.
Of course neo-pagans are harmless, but Finno-ugric pagans were pretty vile people and practiced human sacrifice, Tavastians famously burned christians alive. The practice continued as late as very early 20th century when some tribesmen sacrificed a contingent of Red Army troops to their Gods in total Deliverance-tier innawoods. Adoption of Christianity was the best thing, really.
In any case, I'm proud of our history, but paganism really should be left dead. Why liberal women would want it revived, of all people, makes zero sense. Best case scenario, they're forced to submit to male relative or husband, and worst case they get drowned as a tribute to the River God.

Samis actually have a governing body, meanwhile no one is going to check your Karelian credentials. It's just easy oppression points. The claim that Finnish nationalists caused withering of Karelian culture is more insane the more you dig into it, Finns even had Academic Karelia Society for promotion of all things Karelian.

They're children's bogey's now, but they used to be thought of as very real and often very malevolent creatures a couple hundred years ago. Still absurd, but more like asking how to find a werewolf, vampire, or wendigo.

There's a reason Christianity spread across the world.
"Wait, what you're saying is as long as I say sorry to God, mean it, and just do my best to follow these rules I get the good afterlife? I don't have to kill my kids or be some badass warrior who dies gloriously? Sure, sign me up!"

Karelians are a Finnish cultural subgroup. They share cultural and social customs in the same way that, say, Northern Irish and Republic of Ireland Irish do. Being partly ruled by an invading foreign power (Russia) has changed the group dynamics at the border and part of the cultural and religious landscape.
They were sacrificed to some god, probably Toorum/Tooru/Taara as he was the most prominent of them.
Pretty much the difference of Finns and Karelians is Karelians are orthodox and speak Karelian. Finns came under Swedish influence while Karelians were in slavic sphere of influence. But Karelians have always been viewed as one of the tribes that make up the Finnish nation, they're a subgroup of Finns.

And then I'm gonna rant about these last ones: Is she, though? Is that cat your familiar?
Have you tied your health and fate to your pet? Does your cat bring back items and knowledge you did not have previously?
Can you ask your cat to complete tasks for you and she actually does them?

Although Wikipedia is pretty bad, STEM articles can still be good on occasion. You can calmly remind all the witches that their beliefs are not real and they're just a fat cat lady with candles and rocks.

Cultural appropriation sperging is a never ending thing. Mention "sage" and some dumbass will go on and on about shit they know nothing about. Makes for good dumbassery though.
Yt people stole pine-sol!
No, you can't use chakras. (That shit is yt women culture now. Rapey gurus brought it over, so you really only have yourselves to blame.)
This hot take is from a spider-man obsessed system. Autismo.
Kabalah has been a part of Western occultism for thousands of years.
It's a troon, so they are probably a fake jew anyways.
