Minnesota: Small town approves Whites only church which envisions "blond hair and blue eyes"
Daily Mail ^ | December 23, 2020 | Snejana Farberov

Posted on 12/23/2020 6:05:05 PM PST by White Lives Matter

Murdock, Minnesota's City Council voted 3-1 to grant permit allowing Asatru Folk Assembly (AFA) to gather at former Lutheran church

AFA practices a pre-Christian, European spirituality that revolves around Norse gods; it only admits white people with northern European descent

Southern Poverty Law Center has added AFA to its list of hate groups

Critics of AFA have launched an online petition seeking to stop it, which so far has drawn more than 123,000 signatures

Murdock officials said rejecting AFA's permit request could have violated its religious rights and led to an expensive legal battle

It is not a church but a temple.

I did some reading also they have something to do with the Ring of Throth?

The Troth defines itself as a religious organization of Germanic Heathenry open to all the forms of the religion (Asatru, Urglaawe, Forn Sed, Theodism, and others)

The Mission Statement refers to the ancient virtues of “Boldness, Truth, Honor, Troth, Self-Rule, Hospitality, Industry, Self-Reliance, Steadfastness, Equality, Strength, Wisdom, Generosity, and Family Responsibility.”

Not sure if I always believe everything the Southern Poverty Law Center says

and not sure if they would actually discriminate on anything other than values ?

My rules for any religion is simple. So long as they are not hurting people or taking other people's stuff we are good.

Doesn't sound like they are so I don't see what the fuss is about.

Kind of brings to mind the ancient Egyptian religions, with their pyramids, and so forth.

Of course, they will say nothing like that about groups that promote Kwanzaa, a "holiday" that is for blacks only.

Southern Poverty Law Center is a real hate group and a money making fraud.

Westboro Baptist is a family with several lawyers with a successful 1A lawsuit scam. Anyone who’s taken a close look at how they operate and thinks them serious isn’t very bright.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,..."

I don't know. Does this mean anything anymore?

“They need a permit to gather?”

I suspect this has more to do with being official recognized as a church to gain a property tax exemption. Their vision is a bit short sighted, blue eyes will stand the test of time but blond hair doesn’t age well.

Old one—offshoot of the American Nazi Party founded by Valgard Murray aka Michael J. Murray, influenced by Alfred Rosenberg and Aleister Crowley.
