Re: Is this attitude racist or xenophobic?

[(Anonymous)]

Yep... or sort of! I just looked at his religion, and it's "Wodenism" and Woden is the English form of Odin, I think.

Ugggggh, those guys. *all the facepalming*

I asked, by the way, because I'm Asatru, and people like your acquaintance drive my community* up the fucking wall (there is absolutely nothing in the lore or in any of the records that forbids interracial marriage or that says that only white people can follow the Norse gods).


*It occurs to me that there are people who identify as Asatru who hold the same views as this guy, which is a whole lot of unfortunate bullshit.

Asatru traditions

[(Anonymous)]

Didn't the Aesir, Vanir, and Jotun all interbreed in the myths?

Re: Asatru traditions

[a_potato]

They did, and the three Vanir we know of were counted amongst the Aesir, and some Aesir had either a Jotun parent (e.g. Thor) or began as a Jotun (e.g. Skadi). "Aesir" doesn't seem to have been a racially-bounded term.

Most of the racists dismiss all of that, however, because...well, they don't have very good arguments, honestly. It all relies on misinterpretation of myth (which shouldn't be taken literally, anyway) and a complete disregard for history and biology. Basically, they're just like the racists in every other group. :-/
