"Damn that May growth, that cyclical 'season' stuff, I could have sworn it was real! "

It is real, but is a modern parody by townies real? How many parlour pagans who celebrate the turning agricultural wheel have ever sown a seed, reaped a crop, birthed a lamb or slaughtered a pig? Its pretence, but if it works for you... enjoy it.

The real tribal rituals of our time and our place are alive and well at the great temples. There you will see seasonal observation, ceremonial costume, hymns of praise, mascots, violence, warpaint, war cries, blood lust, hero worship, sacrifice, ritual punishment, head hunting and trophy display.

Football - love it or hate it, at least its real and doesn't pretend to be something else.
