Godless Heathen
Godless is a word often thrown at Heathens, yet it doesn’t take more than a quick look at history to see the contradiction. How can a group be "godless" when their entire worldview is defined by devotion to a pantheon of powers?
The truth?
The label isn't about our lack of gods, but about someone else’s narrow definition of "God" (with a capital G).
Historically, this label wasn't a factual observation; it was a rhetorical weapon. A way for a singular, exclusive theology to categorize anyone outside its borders as nonexistent or inherently flawed. In a world of rigid labels, understanding why we were categorized this way is the first step toward reclaiming our own narrative and speaking with clarity about our path.
We need to stop accepting the terminology of those who sought to erase us.
