Thread on Asatru

[kılıç_mehmet]

Perhaps you should learn a little bit about how the pantheon of this particular reconstruction formed, the broad and vast contributions made by all the varying cultures (and ethnicities) that led to these gods

And I still stand by my original post. I don't think that Asatru is a belief system that is open to anyone else than people with a germanic background(by germanic, I do not just mean Germans, I mean any people who speak Germanic languages as their ancestral tongue).

This "germanic pagan" religion wears it's mixed blood on it's fucking sleeve.....

Oh, please enlighten me then. I believe you're confusing asatru with Wicca, which is actually a religion that fits your description, and it has adherents of all races and ethnicities, but it's not a recon movement, it is a new-age religion that puts focus on magic and witchcraft.

(Hey, for extra credit, where do you figure that "germanic pagans" emigrated from?)

Depends on the timeline.
If you want to go a while back, we can discuss the Urheimat hypotheses for the indo-european peoples.
But currently the majority of scholars believe it was somewhere around the Pontic steppe for the indo-europeans, but Germanic peoples have been in Europe since ancient times.
