I am a non-theist Norse pagan and have been a Norse pagan since I was single digits in age. I was raised by a Catholic mother (her mother was Irish Catholic and her father was Roman Catholic), my father's mother was a Mennonite. I was not raised religiously, but i still have Catholic guilt, and use religious curses.
Longshot, initials SR?
"Norse pagan since I was single digits in age" can't be very many people, is all
My initials? No, sorry.
Huh. Well then, you're certainly not the only one.
How do you get into norse paganism?
I started with reading books on Norse mythology, then realized the gods in it were no more or less valid than any other god. There is a Norse paganism community on lemmy (I still have not yet figured out how to link communities)
