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

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 ?
Doesn't sound like they are so I don't see what the fuss is about.
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.
Freedom. You take the good with the bad.
Yes it is. They’re criminals if you ask me.
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.
The “AFA” today, your church tomorrow.
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.
Found this one is a Bemiji parking lot.
My evening was more than just interesting.
She took me to church!
Shield Maiden!
