Actually, you are right on in using the site correctly. Though I'm not sure why that post on Hu the Mighty is located here.
I agree that most of the neo-druidism is a bunch of baloney made up during the "Celtic Renaissance" by writers and artists wanting to romanticize their Celtic ancestry with images of druids with long flowey beards and white robes, holding a staff like an ancient magician standing around huge stones worshipping them.
That myth, like the Welsh being a lost tribe of Israel, is simply just that, a myth. I have found that the Celts made up alot of stuff, or rather the crazy Celtic monks that were most likely hopped up on some crazy hallucenigenic ale where they thought they saw dragons and Joseph of Armithea bringing the grail to Britain.
But, with all that being said, does anyone have an idea for some groups to spotlight for June? I see I am a few months behind on this.
