Re: Are Nordic/Germanic members backseat passengers here?
Your argument is fake, for the following reasons:
You equate Northern European to Pagan and all others to Christian. Therefore stripping Northern Europeans of Christian faith from the right to their Northern European heritage. And Southern and Eastern Europeans who are Pagans, Pantheists, etc., to their right to their heritages.
There is a sub-forum Religion & Theology/Indigenous/Heathenry for the discussion of Northern European Paganism. Just like there is one for R & T/Christianity/Catholicism, or R & T/Christianity/Orthodox Church, or R & T/Indigenous/Slavianstvo, or R & T/Indigenous/Ancient Mediterranean. I can't see any post of yours in Heathenry, so I have to wonder what all this rant is about. If you feel that the name "Heathenry" is wrong then perhaps you should suggest a more appropriate one instead of constructing this pseudo-debate.
In any case, religion is secondary to Stirpes orientation. Which is political.
Starting to count after the initial founding members of Staff, new Staff members are chosen according to their personality character and political orientation, and trying to balance a representation of both the nations of Europe and the active Stirpes population. Not their religious allegiance. We cannot have any Icelandic Pagan simply because there is none active. The day this changes in the member base it will be reflected in the Staff too.
To summarize, no one nation or group of nations is relegated to the background nor should any expect to receive a granted status a few days after landing on Stirpes.
