When the church doors open, only white people will be allowed inside.
That’s the message the Asatru Folk Assembly in Murdock, Minnesota, is sending after being granted a conditional use permit to open a church there and practice its pre-Christian religion that originated in northern Europe.
Despite a council vote officially approving the permit this month, residents are pushing back against the decision.
“I think they thought they could fly under the radar in a small town like this, but we’d like to keep the pressure on them,” said Peter Kennedy, a longtime Murdock resident. “Racism is not welcome here."
The Southern Poverty Law Center describes Asatru Folk Assembly as a “neo-Volkisch hate group” that couches “their bigotry in baseless claims of bloodlines grounding the superiority of one’s white identity.”
“We’re not. It’s just simply not true," said Allen Turnage, a folk assembly board member. "Just because we respect our own culture, that doesn’t mean we are denigrating someone else’s."
The group, based in Brownsville, California, says teachings and membership are for those of strictly European bloodlines.
Their forefathers, according to the website, were "Angels and Saxons, Lombards and Heruli, Goths and Vikings, and, as sons and daughters of these people, they are united by ties of blood and culture undimmed by centuries."
“We respect the ways our ancestors viewed the world and approached the universe a thousand years ago,” Turnage said.
A small contingent of church supporters in Murdock said the community should be open-minded and respectful to all.

And why is that? It is simply a desire to resurrect and preserve ancient European culture that the Romans and Christian religion tried to destroy. I for one am all for the preservation of white, European civilization just as I am all for the preservation of Bantu, San and any other African culture, as well Japanese culture, Chinese cultures, Mongolian, take your pick. We all have the right to survive. Have you actually read their purpose? Doubtful.
I. The practice, promotion, development, and dissemination of the religion of Asatru
Asatru is an ancestral religion, one passed down to us from our forebears and thus tailored to our unique makeup. Our gods and our religion have shaped our spirit, individually and as a whole. By our WILL, we not only survive, but thrive, and continue our upward evolution in the direction of the Infinite. Modern Asatru is a reconstructed version of our ancestral practice, adapted to the context of our lives today, but our practice is filled with the spirit of our gods and our ancestors. Today’s challenges differ from those that confronted our ancestors but still require the same code of honor and nobility that molded our forebears’ souls. The Asatru Folk Assembly practices Asatru in the here-and-now, that our People may realize their unique spiritual and cultural legacy.
II. The preservation of the Ethnic European Folk and their continued evolution
If the Ethnic European Folk cease to exist Asatru would likewise no longer exist. Let us be clear: by Ethnic European Folk we mean white people. It is our collective will that we not only survive, but thrive, and continue our evolution in the direction of the Infinite. All native religions spring from the unique collective soul of a particular race. Religions are not arbitrary or accidental; body, mind and spirit are all shaped by the evolutionary history of the group and are thus interrelated. Asatru is not just what we believe, it is what we are. Therefore, the survival and welfare of the Ethnic European Folk as a cultural and biological group is a religious imperative for the AFA.
exactly
A simple response is “If I love my race or my people, does that mean I hate other people? If I love my wife, does that mean that I hate yours?”
Why is whites only repugnant?
I’ll answer for you
Because we are held to a higher standard
Is Jews only repugnant
Women only repugnant
Muslims only repugnant
Men only why yes of course unless it’s Muslim men
We live in an age where it’s understood it’s perfectly fine to destroy the very race that thru better or worse means civilized a pretty primitive world except for those who refuse or can’t be civilized
And those in the latter group are hellbent on using our benevolence to destroy us
Which is why it’s verboten for whites to stick together in a world now hostile to them
A world in large part enabled by elites who think the redress will only affect the little people
I have no truck seeing whites stick together
But one should be selective because there are a lot of stupid weak white people
Look how 35-40% of them vote now
Merrily for their own demise
Celebrating it actually
It’s like a modern day dark ages ergot malaise
But now the ergot is the fear of being called a racist not moldy rye
I trust the fried chicken was top shelf
That’s a great reply
Blacks only is repugnant, as is whites only, etc..
Christian/Muslims/Jews only is repugnant unless it is specifically for a religious purpose. So, communion is for Christians only, etc..
Men/Women only is generally perfectly okay.
I could care less
This worry of yours is a new worry
As a friend of mine says
“A luxury problem-“
I don't think stores, or hotels, or restaurants, or anything like that should be for whites only. Whether the government should be the ones policing that is a different question, but morally, it is repugnant.
Do you begin each meeting with a Seig Heil, or just end them that way?
didn’t stick around for the chow but I’m sure the soul food (when I was growing up we just used to call it “food”) was excellent. The brothers and sisters....they DO love to eat.
I became close friends with a Black gal through A-Anon. My husband who was now sober and in AA and I were invited to come to her wedding at an inner city (Baltimore) Black church followed by a reception in the church’s basement.
And like your experience, all the congregants and the pastor were warm and welcoming to us and to her other White friends. I found this wedding and the reception to be one of the most joyful weddings I’ve ever been to.
FWIW, Dylann Roof walked into the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston SC where he came to a Bible study, was welcomed and allowed to participate despite being White and not a member of the church. As members of the Bible study group began to pray, Roof pulled a gun out of his fanny pack and proceed to shoot, killing nine people.
They might want to read up on some history because the Anglo-Saxons and the Vikings spent hundreds of years killing each other over who was going to control Brittan. And before that the invading Anglo-Saxons murdered and nearly wiped out the Celtic but "Romanized" and by now Christian Britons before eventually becoming Christians themselves only to be nearly wiped out by the pagan Vikings before they too became Christian but not before all the killing, pillaging, raping and such.
Hardly “united”.

When I was a boy we would go to Mississippi each summer to visit my dad’s family. Sometimes dad’s cousin would have us stay at the lake house and Annabelle would cook for us. Annabelle always reminded me of Aunt Jemima, kinda built along the same lines, and she was a great cook. The same southern cooking that my grandmother and her sisters also did, which for some reason is dubbed soul food above the Mason Dixon line.
The lake house was built on the old family farm next to the original log house built in 1840. My grandmother grew up in that log house with it’s breezeway and separate kitchen and her CSA veteran uncles. Her own father had been too young. Annabelle’s family either lived on the farm property or nearby. My dad’s cousin had kind of a paternalistic relationship with some of the local black families, I recall that he built them a church once.
“I remember all of them from a bygone era and no we did not treat them like that stupid movie “
Hollywood making liberals comfortable with their own bigotry.
If I read this correctly this is not a no black church. It bars anyone who is not from certain European tribal lines. As an American with some French and Italian heritage I would be equally unwelcome.
One of my Obsessions is Early Medieval History (say 300-1000). Thing is you run into these and other Neo-Nazi/White Supremacists people/groups, in studying this era.
Looking for some sort of validation for their sad lives.
“Hollywood making liberals comfortable with their own bigotry”
Very well said.
We actually could use more Asatru
