HFP are fully in support of PEBBLE's aim to promote paganism as one diverse faith and Heathens will greatly benefit by working closely with the Wiccan/Witchcraft traditions and Druidism. Tolerance is very important to members of HFP, not only the respect of gender, race and sexuality, but also the respect of different interpretations of the religion. Freedom of worship is one of the most valuable aspects of Heathenry and we will work hard to preserve this. Followers of other pagan traditions who also have a strong interest in Heathenry are very welcome to support us.'

We understand that what we all share is a defining personal loyalty to, or Troth with, the Gods and Goddesses of Northern Europe, our specific and tribal ancestors, and the landvaettir, or spirits of the earth around us. Our Gods and Goddesses belong primarily to two tribes: the Aesir, and the Vanir, and are known to us as Odin, Frigga, Thor, Sif, Njord, Frey, Freya, Tyr, Idunna, and many others.
