Does anyone here practice Asatru?

Disclaimer:
I read the forum rules both in the general and in the sticky for this subforum, and my understanding is that religious threads are permitted but closely moderated. If that is not the case then please understand I was not trying to break the rules. I may have misunderstood them.



--------------------------
Now I truthfully I am looking for this thread to be more academic than religious. I want to hear what the religion entails from someone who practices it. I have googled some, but I want to have a conversation.

So if you can, tell me about the ways and rituals of Asatru please.

I thought religious threads were only allowed in the[supporting member-only]lobby. Regardless, I have never heard of Asatru

Zero, religion threads aren't allowed in Off Topic - the only place at TalkBass they can go is the Lobby which requires a supporting membership. Your question is innocuous enough, but all it takes is one off-key post to send the whole thing into the ditch.

For information, the OT rules linked at the top of the OT forum state:

Quote:
No Political or Religious Threads

Please do not create threads on the topic of specific religions (for example, threads that debate the merits of a particular religion), or political debate. Religious/political discussions are challenging enough to moderate when people are face-to-face... In an impersonal, anonymous medium such as this, such threads tend to require constant moderation, create enemies out of prior friends, and generate more hate and anger than anything else. There are a plethora of other forums on the internet dedicated to such discussion, if that's what floats your boat. If you want to discuss religion on TalkBass, the limited-access Lounge Lobby forum is available for such discussion (Supporting Membership required).
