    Of course, I'd choose orgies, wine, swimming nude in lakes and all this stuff anytime over any other religion

    Last option of the poll is downright stupid. Atheism doesn't work, that's why the only thing Secularism has given us is more Islam.

    Religion is necessary even if you don't believe in God. That's the conclusion of Napoleon Bonaparte, Charles Maurras and all the French that made peace with the catholic Church. I support it entirely

    It's quite hippy arty like in these parts. Don't know how it would compare to the actual religions of its time.

    There is no way for most people to revert to our "native" religions because they are lost to us in time, we can read about them, but its near impossible for us to understand them as our ancestors did, i do find some of the ideas of Norse mythology ideal though, and i do incorporate these ideas into my own worldview (symbolism, family's role, the high value placed on learning and knowledge, ect) when i find no better more fitting solutions, but to wholesale adopt Norse mythology would be just as foolish and impossible for me to as becoming say Christian, because its so far flung from my view of reality..

    Yes, even when some people practise paganism today, it's only partial reflection because "full" (it'll never be full due to the lack of info) practise would require to change laws, etc. Besides, it would be hardly appliable to the modern way of living.
    We don't even know how paganism would have evolved naturally, how paganism would express itself in very daily acts and relationships with each other. The natural evolution was broken and there is no way back. We can only speak as interpretation dependant on our post-pagan heritage (that is, Christianity and atheism). And I think this post-pagan heritatge works in a way that people lean towards much more abstract beliefs, not gods who appear in human like bodies with human feelings.

    Lol. Concept of Europe was made by Christianity, so Pre-Christian religons you mentioned could not be called European.
