Didn t the Ancient Druids Do Human Sacrifice?
Yes, it s probably true. But then, so did the clergy of almost every other religion in human history, including the monotheistic ones. In fact, the (Un-)Holy Inquisition probably managed to kill more innocent people in an average year than the Paleopagan Druids did in a century! Nonetheless, Neopagan Druids have never practiced human or animal sacrifice in our rituals. Instead we offer the Goddesses and Gods flowers, fruits, wine, incense, music, song, drama, prayer, and most important of all our love and our dedication. The deities seem to find it more than sufficient.
