My point is you have all lost your way and now worship technology.
Those who are deeply religious Bush/Romney/Obama and so on, prey on peoples faith to push their agendas.

The area's where "white" people dwell such as western Europe , the Nordic countries and the British Isles were originally Pagan ( from the Latin for " Rural").
Paganism encompassed many religions such as Wiccans, Druids, Shamans, Sacred Ecologists, Odinists and Heathens .
The recognition of the divine in nature is at the heart of Pagan belief. Pagans are deeply aware of the natural world and see the power of the divine in the ongoing cycle of life and death. Most Pagans are eco-friendly, seeking to live in a way that minimises harm to the natural environment.
Paganism was eventually swallowed up by christianity . If you look at Christian festivals you will note that a majority of them share their dates with early Pagan festivals .
Even the Norse people were considered Pagan by Christianity .
So there is you answer , OP .
