卍 What Wodenists Do 卐
🟢
A peculiar, yet common question of spiritual people in relation to their faith is "What do you do?"
The simple answer is we have faith in the English gods.
This is an internal, introspective, inward, mental, spiritual matter.
External expressions of our faith are in our seasonal observations, our weofods within our homes, & in our artistic creations.

卍 The Gods 卐
🟢
Atheists ask why do you believe in gods?
To that we may ask why do they not?
Science is learning more about the universe as time passes. We know that we are three-dimensional (height, width, & length) beings, we cannot understand anything outside of our three dimensions, but we have learnt many things about our three dimensions.
Energy for example cannot be destroyed, it can only change form. Therefore energy is eternal within our three dimensions.
We know that energy exists, & we can measure it, but we don't actually know what energy is.
The Big Bang Theory suggests a start point for everything in our universe at approximately 26.7 billion years ago. This would also include the creation of energy.
So we have a point of creation.
So we have a three-dimensional universe created somehow.
How? Why? By whom?
If creation occurs there would be creators, & if that is the case they would be outside of our three dimensions.
So a creation has occurred by something with more dimensions than us, and we cannot fully comprehend beyond our three dimensions, so we are stuck with questions that cannot yet be answered scientifically.
Einstein's General Theory of Relativity treats time as a dimension, giving us 4D spacetime, which is why physicists consider theories in other dimensions. In Bosonic String Theory spacetime is 26-dimensional, Super-String Theory is 10-dimensional, & M-Theory is 11-dimensional.
🟢
The 11 Dimensions of M-Theory
M-Theory is the leading contender for a Theory of Everything.
The M in M-Theory has no definition, though it would logically be Master-Theory.
Other names for it include Magic-Theory, Mystery-Theory, Membrane-Theory, Mother-Theory, etcetera.
🟢
Zeroth Dimension
The zeroth dimension has no length, no width, no height.
🟢
First Dimension
Rods. Length.
🟢
Second Dimension
Planks. Length, & width.
🟢
Third Dimension
Cubes. Length, width & height.
🟢
Fourth Dimension
Travel freely in 3D, but only forwards in time (getting older).
🟢
Fifth Dimension
Travel freely in time (getting younger, & older), & be in multiple places at once.
🟢
Sixth Dimension
Can also take many forms at once, parallel universes, see all time at once, limited to being at the same start point of our universe (The Big Bang).
🟢
Seventh Dimension
Infinite universes, move freely across universes, infinite forms of oneself, & all universes can have different start points.
🟢
Eighth Dimension
No physical existence. All pasts, presents & futures for an infinite number of parallel universes.
🟢
Ninth Dimension
Infinite universal travel with no physical form. Movement through infinite time. Universes have their own laws of physics, with separate conditions, & probabilities of their origin.
🟢
Tenth Dimension
A man of the tenth dimension would have Infinite powers in infinite respects.
🟢
Eleventh Dimension
Everything imaginable, & unimaginable is possible.
In M-Theory everything, including our universe, originated in the 11th Dimension.
🟢
Wodenists believe the gods reside within the infinite infinities (potentially the 11th Dimension), beyond our comprehension, & view M-Theory as being the best theory to support this belief.
🟢
It should be noted that scientific theories are actually more ascientific (not scientific) to begin with, & start with faith, then with mathematics, & science they are either proven, or disproven.
A good example of this is the Higgs boson (Higgs particle), which was proposed in 1964CE, but not proven until the 22nd of June 2012CE.

🟢
2D to 7D Simplexes. Note that the 4D simplex of our 4D-Spacetime is a pentagram.
卍 Infinite Gods 卐
🟢
Monotheists believe that this three-dimensional universe was created by one god.
However the belief in one god is a limit of the three-dimensional mind.
There is no example of one single thing existing without others, there are always other things, so the chance of there being one god is as likely as finding another example of a singular thing existing in our universe.
Particles, atoms, molecules, cells, animals, vegetables, minerals: none are unique.
Monotheists, locked in their single-mindedness spend much time arguing between themselves over which of them is correct, because monotheism is so stupid, limited, & fragile that it demands great effort to attempt to validate it.
Monotheism demands that you do not accept any other gods, nor any other viewpoint.
Jews, Christians, Muslims, & Krishnaists for example, will all argue until the day they die attempting to prove how they are right, & the others are wrong, rather then accept that the idea that one of anything, let alone one god is impossible.
If monotheists returned to their original polytheism (because indeed all of their faiths were originally polytheistic), we would have a more peaceful world.
🟢
The Wodenic belief is that the gods come from zero, with zero being infinite.
So the gods are infinite.
Thus all gods exist, more gods than we can comprehend. Hence polytheism.
This is why mankind honours different gods by region. We all have our own gods.
However all of these gods are equally the same god, & no gods at all.
This is confusing as we are three-dimensional, gods are infinite-dimensional.
We cannot comprehend something simultaneously existing, & not existing, let alone infinite things infinitely simultaneously existing, & not existing, because we are limited to three-dimensional thought.
Scientists are working to solve the riddle of existence, but they are limited by our three dimensions, & human intelligence. However they have developed artificial intelligence, which is hoped to move us forward in our quest for knowledge.

卍 Differences 卐
🟢
We are sometime asked "What is the opinion of Wodenists of other similar groups?"
🟢
Pagans / Heathens
Paganism / Heathenism ended in the UK by 1030CE, therefore neither exist today.
🟢
Reconstructionist Neo-Pagans / Neo-Heathens
There is nothing to reconstruct, as you cannot reconstruct something if you lack the original parts.
This is a case of "Trigger's Broom" from the TV series "Only Fools & Horses", where the character of Trigger is a street sweeper, & he claims to have only ever had one broom, however it is revealed that he has replaced the head of the broom, & handle of the broom multiple times, therefor the broom is not the same broom at all.
This is essentially what reconstructionism is.
🟢
Heathenry
Heathenry is a form of "Reconstructionist" Neo-Heathenism, focussed on Viking era polytheism from 800CE to 1150CE.
Practitioners of Heathery not only attempt to reconstruct Viking practices, but also Viking clothing, & armour, as they are costume-players, live-action role-players, & historical reenactors.
Heathenry is associated with those that "grab low-hanging fruit", which is to say, posers inspired by popular culture such as television series, films, music, video-games, & table-top games.
They are posers, insincere, fake, inauthentic, shallow, pretenders, & play-actors.
🟢
Wotanism / Odinism / Odenism
The regional variations of Wodenism, they are the only other faiths we deem as sincere, & true.
Indeed our faiths are the same, it is only the language, & culture that surrounds them that is different.
Our faiths are of the 20th century, they are modern, & applicable to the modern age.
Our faiths are faiths of science, proof, & logic.
We have no belief in myths, nor magic.
We honour our gods, the gods linked to our genetic, & historic pasts.
We know who we are, where we are, & when we are.
🟢
Polytheist Organisations
Faith does not need organisations, nor does it need public places of worship.
Faith is private, it is held within your mind, & can be expressed in the home, or in nature.
Nature is the only temple we need, & we do not need to be organised.
Organised religion is dogmatic, hierarchical, & bureaucratic, it is a hinderance to true faith.
🟢
Other Faiths
Other faiths, including the ones above are not a matter of concern to Wodenists however.
The old adage of "live, & let live" applies.
Wodenists simply wish not to be mistaken for other groups, lest we be "tarred with the same brush" which is to be incorrectly grouped with others that have different beliefs, & practices.
If some idiot calls themselves a Pagan / Heathen / Witch, & performs performance-art rituals on public television for example, we want to be very clear that that is nothing to do with our faith, & to distance ourselves from that embarrassing behaviour.
As for all other faiths, we as polytheists accept all of their gods happily, it is only the monotheists, & atheists that don't really gel with our views, that said, we are happy to ignore them, providing they do not interfere with our faith, people, culture, & country.
