Christmas trees? Pagan. December 25? Pagan. Lights? That's achin' of Pagan. New Year's Eve. Ragin' Pagan. I have unintentionally celebrated so many Pagan rituals and holidays, I have to wear Snuggies backwards now. Like a robe. Apparently I've become a Level 70 Pagan Druid as a result.
Or these dudes from Star Wars. Also Pagan.
I was appalled. I was even ashamed to see how brazenly we had fallen yet again into the Wily E. Coyote of Pagan plans to ensconce this fine Nation. And to a lesser degree, rob me of my wanting to wear pants around the house. By this point, I was at a fearful precipice. Either I start banning all the Pagan and Devil-consecrated items and holidays currently in my homestead or face a newfound fondness for fresh animal blood and Cradle of Filth.

This shot is from their acoustic slo-jamz album.
Many of our socially cherished holidays, customs, and even phrases have histrionic origins in Paganism, the occult, and even Filipinos. As I rifled through the webbernet, Then I discovered one of the most disturbing conspiracies running right under our noses.
A massive system of Pagan idolatry has been lurking underground, passively accepting our tributes as consent of worship. Monetary systems? Architecture? Governments? Korean rap sensation Psy? Ha! Those are well know demon occupations. No, we gotta hit our Inception button and go deeper.
If you guessed our massive underground sewage system, you are either incredibly perceptive or you where the Snuggie as I do.
The very toilets, sinks and drains we've been using for years have their very roots in the Pagan and idolatrous societies that we have tried so hard to eschew. They have literally caught us all with our pants down. We have been taught as children to train into the ways of the "Great Drain," to tell our poopy "bye-bye" and wave our leavings behind to the festering sewer netherworld. There was even a open-top temple made on her behalf and it also doubled as the main manhole to the sewer system. And yet, we still have those manholes throughout our cities and some are even in front of our homes. Our very streets are lending themselves to the mini-sanctuaries of this idol.

Meet Cloacina
Here is the goddess who presided over the Cloaca Maxima ("Great Drain"), the main trunk of the system of sewers in Rome. She was originally derived from Etruscan mythology…As well as controlling sewers, she was also a protector of sexual intercourse in marriage. Despite her Etruscan origins, she later became identified with Venus. ~Wikipedia
That's right, while we worried ourselves away about the pine trees and dyed eggs and certain dates, she was beneath us all this time, making her reign beneath our thrones. And to make matters worse, she cozies up with a Pagan superpower, Venus.
No, not this Venus.
This Venus.
You have to admit though, that is one stand-up looking manhole.
Solutions to the other issues were simple. Merely snub one's own cultural upbringings, pull the tree down, and chastise the mainstream for not doing likewise. The power of Facebook share buttons will not help. And It's a little harder when I have to unmount 50 pounds of ceramic and a compromised lower back.
But really, if you, I, or the greater modern Christendom fail to get a move on, we're going to end up in the clutches of yet another demonic conspiracy. It's bad enough we're celebrating on holy days of the Pagan calendar and making our kids eat ceremonial chocolate bunnies. What's more, the word "sewer" isn't even in the King James Version (the only version, right conspirators?) of the bible. We really should not be allowing this abomination into our homes. It's a definitive evil that takes our righteous turds and turns them into compliance with the very godess Venus herself.
Now you are probably ready to debate my logic with "But, Christmas is mingled with Pagan bits and it defiles our pure attempt to have a biblical/Christian holiday which we shouldn't have anyway. This is different this is about some physical system set up for a society that is long gone for an idol that no one cares about."
A-ha!
Also, A-Ha!
If you're still compelled to believe that using and applying vestiges of old, long gone groups, societies and religions will compel you back into those very things, you need to stop doing a lot more than just the holidays. You'll need to stop making a fire, using bells, saying "bless you" when someone sneezes, and you'll also need to stop pooping.
So for those who are still fearful of having idolatrous trees or dates, read this article here as well as many of their other articles on similar issues regarding this.

Until then, I think I'm going to keep the water closets in the house.

Well put! I do like the Cradle of Filth reference. You're just one Easter egg away from death metal! RAR!
