Returning Souls to Ethnos
Ethnic Religion for All
What is Folk Faith? The Ethnos is the natural state of being for all people. |
The Ethnos is a tapestry woven of many threads. Folk Faith is part of what makes each human ethnic group special & unique. We have been told that our indigenous religions are dead. The truth is that vibrant, valid, cohesive, and beautiful ethnic faith in a LIVING tradition can be found when we look to the folk traditions of a given culture. Therein thrives the Folk Faith.

Elements of Folk Faith are found universally in virtually all indigenous world cultures. However, this is NOT a "universalist" religion - as each element manifests uniquely in each respective culture.
Monotheist "revealed" religions aim to pull the individual out of their natural Ethnos (ethnic group, kinship-based clan) and unite them under one ideology. In effect, ethno-culture is trounced and the uni-faith acts as a cultural surrogate. We believe that ALL world cultures are beautiful and worthy of existence. Folk Faith guides individuals back to full ethnic ascension by restoring the union of spirituality with ethnicity. Mono-theist universalism destroys world diversity. Folk Faith celebrates and preserves ethno-culture. |
