Charles,

Religion wise, it is important to realise that all Proto-Slavs and even Slavs pagan beliefs are deeply rooted in Persian Zoroastrianism.
Ask any true Slav pagan who knows what they are talking about, and he/she will tell you the truth.

Language wise, all Slavic languages have their roots in the Iranian branch of the Indo-European languages.

Also, the Scythians and Sarmatians were Iranians and they are generally considered to have made a large contribution to the modern Slavs.

Unfortunately people get confused with the 'Indo' part of Indo European, and think that it means India.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-European_people

The term "Indo-Europeans" does not usually refer to speakers of various Indo-European languages in historical times: linguists usually refer to such people specifically as Anatolians, Tocharians, Indo-Aryans, Iranians, Greeks, Celts, Italic peoples, Germanic peoples, Baltic peoples, Slavic peoples, Armenians, Albanians (or subdivisions of these terms).

All languages originally stemmed from the Proto-Indo-Iranian branch of dialect, and this is why I denounce any direct Indian language link on the Proto-Slavic people.

Proto-Slavs are Iranians.

Don't try to discredit my last post, vitalsigns.

I've outlined my case and it's shrouded in fact.
Link after link of reputable information can be found that shows that the Proto-Slav religion, language and geneology comes from the Iranian people, not Indian or Chech or others.

Ancient Iranians are descended from aryians just as most europeans are. But Iranians from way long ago did not look like they do today. But aryians are not descended from Iranians-and there is a huge difference. The true RUS are descended from Aryians but not from Iranians-so lets keep that clear. There is no connection. This course in history is very complicated and would take up too much time to explain it all and one would have to really know the subject to even comprehend the migration of our worlds people to grasp the whole picture

Xela-first off I did not reference Hindus or Indians at all. 2nd-when I was in Iran I re-confirmed what I new of Iranians and trust me there is a lot of Arab features in most present day Iranians. And as we know true Iranians are not Arabs. Yes the Rus are Nordic and later mixed with the slavs. Here's a tid bit of info...Hebrews and Phonecians occupied the land that is now known as present day Lebanon (Just to the north of Israel) It's amazing how the Vikings who like the Phoenicians were a sea farying people and the Vikings would come all the way down from Scandanavia to Lebabnon to get the timbers to build their boats from the famous Cedar trees that used to be abundant in Lebanon. In those days there were canals and waterways that used to span all the way from Russia to to the med and other routes that the Rus also from Scandanavia and cousins to the norseman used to trade along. Ok the kicker is that the physical features genetically of the hebrews and the phonecians, and the Rus-is red hair, blue/green eyes, fair skin and freckles. True aryians are blond hair blue eyes-the Iranians even admit to this. And this is what got hitler into trouble. Red hair and green eyes is an off shoot of this. Rus means "red"

I can go on and on but that is an example of how and where from people migrate...and where the RUS came from. Next I can go into where did the Phonecians and Hebrews come from-well that would be the Israelites. And where did they come from...well that takes us back to Babylon and Samaria-and where are they located well that would be present Day Iraq-next to Iran. So if one studies the migratory paths of peoples-he can learn where they came from and went to. You got into it once before over Palestine which you were and probably still are clueless about so really maybe talk on subjects you know about. You must have something interesting to offer?
