Finland in the Pagan news!

[serendipity8791]

ilthit, the Wild Hunt blog has an article on Paganism and Heathenry in the Republic of Finland.

I thought you might find it interesting. It's from an North American perspective, so things might not be very detailed and there may be things that are inaccurate. But! An article about Paganism in Finland! :D

So yeah, I thought of you. :)

Woops, I guess this is what I get for not checking my reading list for two weeks!

Man, Suomenusko. I don't think I can ever join in because of it's country and culture specific nature. I'm very fond of the stories and the heritage, but I'm a country-hopper. I won't always be able to tap into this swampy ground and its histories. Also I'm afraid it, like Asatru, will be tainted by the odd racist, and I don't really want to have to deal with that.

I tried getting in touch with the Pagans around here, but I've let it drop.

By the way, the professor whose course I quoted extensively from has published his book - in Finnish, but still. I'm looking forward to getting it from the library once it becomes available.
