In Praise to the House of T'rdat
(The philosophy and writings of polytheistic Armenians has
been mainly "sub rosa" up to now. You must understand that King Jack of the House of Ber of the Kingdom of Armenia was too close to friendships with the Russian Royal Family, and escaped to a foreign land in 1918. He died in the Bronx, not sure whether his sons and grandsons would remain loyal to the culture and religion of Armenia. It is doubful whether we'll be ever able to come out in the open completely, at least in this century. The modern Armenian now considers Christianity to be the "culture" of Armenia, a concept so repulsive to those who still worship Our Beloved Gods that we rarely find ourselves coming out in the open.
We do realize that we are not accepted anymore by the multitudes, and only wish to live in peace to worship our Gods, awaiting that time when Armenians come to seek our Temples once again. Therefore, I will give only one of our articles for now, and respectfully thank those who have not given us hosilities for our sacred beliefs. Here it is...)
In Praise to the House of T'rdat
I will now write of a great hero that modern historian have chosen to neglect or delete from the records. Remember, that many historians writing of King T'rdat the Great, were Christian and did not understand how he could of been so angry against the invading creeds of the Zoroastrians and the Christians.
So it came to pass, that his anger and vengeance was sufficient to go to Rome to gather legions against the heathen creeds that were destroying and blaspheming the true culture. I honor the name of King T'drat for his attempt to restore the culture of Armenia in 288 A.D. for he was one of the last Kings, besides King Ber, to arise against the heathen occupations.
No doubt, with the Zoroastrians he succeeded completely, but the savage and evil cult of the dead man, now called Christianity continued to soil the souls of Armenians. The Pagan Wars lasted about 300 years before the majority of the Armenian Kings and people sold out to the Christian heathen. Imagine the surprise and anger he must of felt when Grigor refused to place the wreath of flowers in Anahit's name revealing he had secretly converted to Christianity. His most loyal servant betrayed him after he had regained occupation of his Kingdom. Realize that if Grigor had not betrayed his loyal King the situation might of turned to King T'drat's favor, but betrayal and sell outs to the cult of the dead man were occurring all over Armenia as the demonic chains of Christianity were locked upon the naive and innocent multitudes. What a horror it must of been for King T'drat to see his Kingdom and culture be destroyed by something so savage and evil as Christianity, who would be sheep rather than great lions, proud, strong and upright. It is long overdue to honor our ancient Kings who represent the true culture and strength of Armenia.
Yes, I honor King T'drat for at least slowing down the growth of the demonic creed of the dead man, and stopping completely the eventual take over by the Persian Empire. If it wasn't for King T'drat, Armenia would not exist and it would of been of part of modern Iran. As for the betrayal of Grigor, he completely brings shame and disappointment upon all polytheists in existence. He goes down in our history as a traitor and a fool.
It is said that eventually King T'drat converted to Christianity. It is a direct and stupid contradiction of history that King T'rdat converted to Christianity in 301 A.D.. Also, legend has it that he went "insane" just before this!!! In this case, I could see some truth here since anyone would have to be insane to convert to something as revolting as Christianity. My opinion, however, stands that the Church created the story to pay King T'drat back for his war against the occupying heathen. This was a fish tale and propaganda from the Church itself, and no intelligent scholar is fooled by the Church's twisting of history. Observe and question how an Armenian king under the protection of Rome would convert at the height of Roman persecutions against Christians, with the most virulent persecutor, Galerius, in their own neighborhood.
Verily, I honor King T'drat for his brave attempt to bring the Gods back to Armenia. He is an excellent example of a King who truly cared for the culture of his people and ancestors. Let him not rest in peace but the spirit of his vengeance arise in all Armenians as the true valour and pride that all Armenians once knew before the treacherous invasions of the evil cults that threatened our way of life. On the contrary, his spirit shall arise once again in the souls of Armenians, who see that he is a King to be honored for his role in our continued understanding of the true history of Armenia.
Praise be the House of T'drat and his sincere and loyal efforts for the Kingdom of Armenia.
(I would like to thank all those kind Armenians who have written me and expressed an interest in the above article. Apparently, my point was taken very well and I have succeeded in stimulated interest in the 300 years of Pagan Wars so sadly neglected by historians. I'm still waiting for a historian to come along and write an essay or article called "The 300 Years of Pagan War" that gives us greater details of this grave struggle. It seems to me that such an important period of history should be studied by Armenian scholars and elaborated on much more concisely. Since writing the above I am convinced that King T'rdat mysterious conversion to Christianity had to be part of the nervous breakdown and insanity that occurred from 13 years of betrayals and sell outs from the Christian Church. In this case, his House should be still honored in spite of his conversion since it was a consequence of real psychiatric problems that occurred from constant betrayals, and had his Royal House been supported by his Court, rather than betrayed his insanity would of never occurred. There is little doubt, therefore, that King T'rdat would never converted from his beloved Gods in his right mind. Clearly, this observation of history is an insight not in the favor of the Church, who have tried to make him a hero as the first Christian King of Armenia. This shows , rather, that the first Christian King was clearly insane when he converted from the Gods, and therefore more a puppet conveniently placed for the use of propaganda of the Church's sick growth. As for Grigor, all evidence indicates he was a spy for the Church whose main mission was to convert, observe and report on the progress of the conversion of the House of T'drat. Grigor had already secretly murdered King T'drat's father, more than likely as an act of sabotage under the orders of the Church fathers, and had his eye on King T'drat. The Church fathers had to have promised him an important position in the Hierarchy of the Church if he were to somehow convert King T'drat and his royal family. When King T'drat found out he would not pay homage to the Goddess Anahit, Grigor was put in a prison pit for 13 years. Now, I think that King T'drat was too compassionate to Grigor. Grigor was a Church spy and had converted to Christianity, cleverly placing himself into a friendly position in the Court. Clearly, Grigor was a dangerous spy that should of been executed as an example of all traitors. His attempt to place himself in a friendly position in King T'drat's Royal Court must of attracted the attention of King T'drat's sister who eventually convinced T'drat to release him. Releasing this dangerous spy was the worst decision possible, for he had been in prison for 13 years, and in his hatred and revenge for King T'drat he was to reconnect himself with his Church fathers and complete his mission to destroy or convert the House of T'drat. Now Grigor was in an excellent position to put his Church masters into power, for King T'drat's mental state was disturbed enough to go along with any plans that evil Grigor would conceive.
