Would you still be a Druid.....

... if your Reconstructionist friends discovered that a fundamental and essential part of Druidism was human sacrifice? That to "be a real Druid" you had to build a wicker man and sacrifice a virgin in it? Would you stay in Druidism or would you find another path? OR -- would you redefine Druidism?

    One of the reasons we are "Reformed" Druids is that it's alleged that the ancient ones did some bad things (almost everyone did back then). So we've defined a new type of Druid. I would want to put some distance between anyone wanting to revive the wicker man rites for sure.

      Yes, I would find another path. Perhaps go back to Christianity!! :) lol

      LIke Redwood suggests, it's a reformed New Druidry.

      I believe that we should take into account modern science/age/social justice/politics & ethics.

      Just my opinion.
