Reassessing the Etymology of Kirk / Church: A Circle-Based Proof

Reassessing the Etymology of Kirk / Church: A Circle-Based Proof


I submit to you, the reader, that would find examples of my etymological conclusions here and elsewhere erroneous at best to completely ignorant at worse that instead my deductions are factually sound and that the majority of what we are taught and told, and has simply been regurgitated in a demanded culture of "read, remember, don't challenge, accept and repeat" or "suffer the consequences" is a long process of not only cowardice, but also shoddy scholarship of others and academic laziness of most. For that reason I shall in this case present the idea behind my reasoning that Church itself means and reflects the concept of Circle.


Abstract:


This presentation challenges the longstanding etymology of the Germanic word kirk / kirkja / church as derived from Greek κυριακόν (kyriakón), “(house) of the Lord.” I demonstrate that its true semantic and phonological…

PROPOSED DIGITAL CURRENCY: SHOULD WE?

THE 'DRUS' COIN
THE 'DRUS' COIN

Q: Should we consider creating a digital currency as our religion develops in these modern times?


A: It’s a powerful question, and it immediately frames the conversation around growth, adaptation, and the responsibilities of a living faith. When a spiritual tradition is formed and expands into new eras, new tools inevitably emerge—not to replace doctrine, but to strengthen community, transparency, shared purpose, and overall common wealth.


Considerations


Many faith communities around the world are already embracing digital currencies to support donations, empower members, and modernize their infrastructure. Blockchain technology offers transparency, security, and symbolic depth that aligns naturally with a religion built on unity, reciprocity, and enduring truth.


As Druwayu grows, the question becomes not “Should we?” but “How do we do this in a way that reflects our values?”

Countering Arguments Against the One and Three

ITS NOT ABOUT FIGHTING. ITS ABOUT LOGIC
ITS NOT ABOUT FIGHTING. ITS ABOUT LOGIC

A Preliminary Clarification for Consideration


The following is offered for consideration to those who will encounter arguments against the existence of the One and Three that extend beyond the more primitive demand for human-centered, emotionally reciprocal, or anthropomorphic relationships with the divine.


A frequent error in such arguments is the assumption that impersonal relations toward creation imply a lack of personhood, or that a finite being such as a human is capable of meaningfully relating—through subjective experience alone—to entities that are nonphysical, nonlocal, and ontologically prior to the conditions that allow human perception, cognition, and emotion to exist in the first place.


The inability to form a personal or subjective relationship with the One and Three does not entail their nonexistence, nor does it imply that they lack personhood. It merely reflects the epistemic and experiential limitations inherent to finite observers embedded within the system they attempt to understand.


Likewise, the absence…

Describing the One and Three to Others

The Seal of the One and Three: A Universal Framework of Creation


In Druwayu cosmology, creation is articulated through Sacred Geometry, where divine essence manifests as precise structure, motion, and proportion. The Seal of the One and Three, a triangle interwoven with three interlocked rings, represents the eternal interplay between the One God and the Three Goddesses. This geometric formulation is not merely symbolic; it expresses the operational blueprint of reality, connecting the nonphysical and physical realms.


Across cultures and philosophical traditions, this notion of unity expressed through triadic emanations appears repeatedly:


  • The Christian Trinity embodies the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, distinct yet unified in essence.

  • Hindu Trimurti represents Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva as cosmic functions of creation, preservation, and transformation.

Reasonable Propaganda: Suggested/Not Required

ree

This is both serious and based on a sense of humor, and can be applied as a form of propaganda because, well, it is. Propaganda is strategic communication designed to influence public opinion, beliefs, or actions, often by presenting biased, misleading, or emotionally charged information to promote a specific agenda, political cause, or ideology, rather than objective facts, using techniques like selective facts, loaded language, and repetition to bypass rational thought.


Fortunately this Propaganda is not meant to mislead anyone, and the selected facts are not all that selective as much as specific things people often bring up as questions or try to make claims which these things counter directly. And yes, a lot of it is loaded on purpose.


That said;


Converting to a different faith can be intimidating, but when the pros outweigh the cons, it can be totally worth it. You just have to be aware of…
