/asatru/ - Asatru / Heathenry / Paganism

A single tribe should be no larger than about 150 people. This is to ensure that everyone knows everyone and that there can exist a mutual trust.

Also, what city is in your pic? It kind of looks like SLC

Seems to be 1 billion or so, maybe more.

1 billion or so.

I agree but would push that number down to 100. We should be living in tribes and only ever unite when an external threat appears otherwise we should practice self governance.

If we're talking about tribes, as the others have said, an ideal number would depend on the maximum number of friends a human brain can 'handle' (for lack of a better word).

Seems like Heathenry would be very compatible with Distributism.

This is something we should ally with the Catholics / Orthodox on.

Mormons are nice people. There's actually a lot that we could side with them on in terms of non-degeneracy. Although, liberalism is certainly slowly eroding them.

There was a female youtuber that told her story about going from heathenry to mormonism because she felt that mormonism was much more family friendly.

Be careful about Mormons. They're like Jews. Mormons always come first.

Their friendliness is the same as a Muslim. they don't really care about non-Mormons, they just want you to think highly of them.

Isn't this true of most "in groups"?

For an asatru, the most concerning part of Mormonism is that it wants to be perceived as a very "tolerant" religion. Not in terms of sexuality but in terms of race. They are utterly and irreparably embarrassed about their race-based past, and have tried all they can to churn out propaganda and apologia all but disowning every past leader who said something about blacks being inferior or unworthy of equality. Some young mormons think that blacks being withheld the priesthood is an anti-mormon lie that never happened, but it did.

Doesn't mean they won't be nice to you, their theology is such that they get "points" for being nice to anyone at any time, but any idea that pagan and mormon goals can overlap needs to take this issue into consideration. And, ultimately, to them your religion is false and they'll never stop trying to convert you.

This is the case with all monotheistic faiths. They will never stop attempting to convert. However, I am firm in my own beliefs and cannot be swayed.

Yes, but Mormons are particularly saccharine, so people might forget it.
