It is absurd that someone was able to trademark a word that has been around for more than a millenia and has its roots in Proto-German.

Being a Heathen is a religion, and trade marking the word is no different to trade marking Muslim, Hindu or Christian. This violates religious freedom.

No one would do this to the word "Christian" or "Jewish" or any other faith.
Our faith is not a trademark.

This is an affront to those individuals who have identified as Heathens as part of their faith for decades before this person developed a product line.

As a Druid and a Witch, some of my dearest friends in the greater Pagan communities are of the Heathen religion. Trademarking the name of a religion and perusing legal action against those who declare it with honour is an atrocity.

While I have been a Heathen for the past 45 years. I do not support the commercialization of my spirituality and religious beliefs by capitalizing upon them. No one person or commercial enterprise can hold ownership of the word "heathen" in ANY context.

After quite a bit of research into my heritage, I found that I in fact have family ties to the lands of Scandinavia. So the heathen heritage is also my own and I will not stand for the word or its meaning to be stolen or owned by one, it belongs to all who just to wear it proudly

Religious iconography and religious terminology should never be subject to a trademark.
