Most heathens blót because their ancestors did. And that's a real answer. But it's not the only one. In this episode we dig beneath the surface of sacrificial practice into the gift economy of Norse culture, Iamblichus and the theurgic tradition, henosis, sunthemata, and what it actually means to participate in the pattern of creation. Blót isn't just tradition. It's cosmology in action.

A systematic examination of arguments claiming European paganisms cannot be closed practices. Through logical analysis, I demonstrate how each argument—from colonization to white supremacy to historical precedent—fails under scrutiny. What emerges is a pattern of sophistry masking racial double standards. A call for intellectual consistency and equal treatment in pagan discourse.

In this episode, I critique Seðian philosophy as presented by the Norroena Society, showing three fatal logical flaws: they deny unity exists while constantly affirming it, they reduce gods to physical beings (which is just atheism), and they deny objective morality while making moral prescriptions. I offer the Platonic framework as a coherent alternative that preserves real divinity and real ethics.
