		<description><![CDATA[I believe I mentioned there was recently talk about Miasma on the The Reconstructionist Interfaith List, and since Lisa brought this up on another thread, I thought we should discuss it separate from the &#8220;A few FAQ on Miasma in daily &#38; household practice&#8221; thread. Miasma holds little to no moral judgment against the afflicted, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The spark of inspiration for this short essay came from a conversation on our forum, and a misunderstanding regarding the concept of kharis that is currently spreading through some &#8220;Hellenic polytheist&#8221; online groups. Subsequently, I provided a list of quotes (here) from several scholarly sources explaining this concept, and now would like to meld those [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I present this copy of Sallustius’ On the Gods and the Cosmos, an authoritative statement of Hellenic doctrine, as an archival version. While not going into great detail, within this work, Sallustius supplies us with an elementary summary of principles (catechism) for Hellenismos, each which can be sourced back to earlier thinkers such as Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the first terms someone new to Hellenismos will encounter is the word orthopraxy. What is orthopraxy? An orthopraxy is a religion that places emphasis on what one does rather then what one believes, while orthodoxy places weight on correct belief over lifestyle. Many eagerly embrace this new terminology, coming from very dogmatic religions such [...]]]></description>

The timing seemed very appropriate, as this is one of the main questions being discussed across a number of venues in association with Hellenismos and Hellenic Reconstruction. The questioner asked three queries [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would have never thought my short little ditty Hellenic Kindergarten would have created controversy, but it has. The storm stems from the phrase “repent of sins” being used and this caused a little uproar. First, some offence seems to have been taken because of the Christian connotation of the word. Second, the Greeks had [...]]]></description>
