For the past couple of days I have been thinking of writing a letter to Steve Mcnallen about the current state of Asatru.
The overall message of the letter that I would want to convey to him, is how SO many of our people are looking for something religious, but have no idea where to look, or that they even have a ancestral spirituality (like myself)
So many European Christians I genuinely believe, cling onto Christianity because there is nothing else presentable for them.
Most Christians see Asatru, and instantly lump it into "LARPer wicca faggot" category. I dont blame them for this.
BUT if that image were to change…If there were to be a well organized group that presented a alternative…We would reclaim SO many of our people. I really believe this.
We ofc understand that ethnic identity and Christianity are incompatible. Its a oxymoron. But our kin who are Christians, they have literally no other option there for them. Christianity is structured, and organized. It has a "strong" community.
WE NEED THIS.
idk how well Steve keeps his ear to the ground on current events…but our people are BEGGING for something better. Asatru would absolutely fill that void. It simply needs the infrastructure and logistics. And social media would be a great step in the right direction.
So tl;dr how the fuck can we help the AFA become a respectable organization, and Asatru a respectable religion?
PS pic related. Steve posted this months back, it looks like they are trying to do what I wanted to speak to Steve about. Would any of you anons be able to help with said fields? Or know anyone who could?
