Welcome to An Fianna

What is An Fianna?

An Fianna is a unique Pagan website, a place for the for the more serious minded pagan to seek, share, socialize, and discuss real information on paganism, and it's paths, in a frank and honest manner.......

An Fianna is dedicated to promoting accurate and factual understanding of the cultures and pre-christian societies from which modern paganism draws breath.

An Fianna honour's indigenous traditions, real paganism, and sincere seekers who put Truth above ego or power-trips.

An Fianna honours pagans who live their paths, wherever they find themselves.
An Fianna seeks to provide a fluff free space for serious pagans, a refuge in which they can express themselves, and a space where glib and facile misinformation is not tolerated.

An Fianna has a simple ethos:
We are not a teaching site: Although you may learn by being here it is not the purpose of AF to teach newcomers.
Newbies are welcome, but whether they get anything out of AF will depend on themselves, on whether they contribute to the discussions and are willing to have their preconceptions challenged.
An Fianna requires active membership:

Members are required to post an Introduction immediately upon joining, and to post at regular intervals. Inactive accounts are deleted. We do not encourage people to join in order to simply read other’s ideas. AF membership implies a willingness to engage with your fellow members and to contribute.

An Fianna questions everything:

From your first post to your last, An Fianna members have developed an ethos and tradition of questioning everything. This is not a personal attack nor will complaints on this be tolerated by admin. As long as no personal comments are passed, there is nothing wrong in any member questioning the validity or source of any statement or claim.
Claims of superpowers, initiation into ancient but hidden traditions, unbroken pagan lineage from pre-christian times, relationship to or descent from fairies, and other RPG-type fantasies will be closely questioned.


We shoot trolls

We do not engage in conversation, nor do we feed them, we simply shoot them then delete them. Administrators decisions are final on all decisions to delete or suspend members

Recent Testimonials
(these are real. BTW People who have to ask why they are here need to get a sense of humour. fast)


Must admit for the first time, I actually like you hard bastards on AF
"I now see why the group has such a bad reputation... you deserve it. "
"I don't know why I have been banned Sad !! None of the three warnings I received said clearly why!"
"I am not a pagan. I am not a pagan. I am not a pagan. What do you mean, why have I joined a pagan site? "
"This is just another new age site. Disappointing. I am a Third Generation Wiccan Priestess of Traditional Witchcraft, I don't have to put up with this, my Krystals told me so"
"a bunch of self-righteous, pseudo-intellectual wankers." "I have never met people who were meaner"
"They wouldn't recognise the real thing if it punched them in the face. I founded my ancient tradition over ten years ago!"
"I will tell everyone I know not to come here! Real pagans don't question your path like that"
"The meanest people I have ever met"
"Bastards"
" 'rottweillers of the pagan internet network'"




 Pagan Poets Needed!

The Pagan Poetry Pages is a small and independent poetry site, founded in 2000 and dedicated to quality poetry, particularly concerning (though not necessarily restricted to) that with a spiritual or pagan slant.
For years we've published a range of poetry, Short Stories, Prose and Journals in 6-8 editions per year, online. We have a members' section where poems and writing in general can be posted and discussed. We welcome articles and news from the world of writing and poetry.
In the last year the PPP as it's affectionately known has beeen quieter than normal due to other commitments on the part of the editorial team. But it is now being revamped and rejuvenated!

A new edition is already in the works and regular editions will be appearing throughout the year; we are also about to collate the PPP Anthology, showcasing the best of the poems and other works and this will be sold to raise money for the PPP annual Poetry

Competition Prize Fund. The PPP anual Poetry Competition will be help from November and the results announced in the Yule Edition.


We would love to hear from new poets, or indeed, renew our aquaintance with old friends. We also welcome general prose, stories, and journals. Work can be submitted as members by joining the PPP website, or by emailing submit@paganpoetrypages.com

Please include any biographical information and any details of previous publications, books, anthologies etc that you would like to have included with your published poem/work.

Read, Enjoy, Be Inspired!

 Welcome to An Fianna 2008

Site News
Welcome to 2008, we hope everyone is going to have a Happy Healthy and Prosperous 2008, and hope that everyone has had a great Yule.


We’ve been running almost 4 years just over, approximately? I’m sure someone can give a much more accurate read out than me at this moment in time, but we’re still here and still going strong.

So what do you want to see An Fianna do for 2008?
Anything new you’d like to see?
Anything to be removed?
New colours, theme?
Removal of things?
New Forums?


Get a topic going, get some ideas and suggestions down, because now is the time for them, and who knows, maybe this year we’ll be even greater than ever before!

Thank you to all the members and all the staff, old and new, your help, and your support has made this site what it is………now get posting Wink
