Curious. I know Asatruars believe there have been historical abuses
inflicted on them by "Christians", but is there any place on planet
earth today where Asatruars are in danger of being killed or
persecuted for being Asatru?

Yes indeed. If the RRR madmen ever gain too much power this danger
will be very very real for Asatruar in the US. Of course "we" would
not be the only targets for the fundamental bigotry and insanity...
muslims for example would have to suffer the same.
And what do you mean we "believe" there have been historical abuses?
The christianization of most of Europe by fire and sword is historical
fact. All in the name of the "love" of the christian god.

Look up Charlemagne and Olaf Tryggvasson in google if you want
references.

The reason I ask is that a sizeable portion of planet earth
routinely persecutes Christians.

Well, as long as this persecution comes from muslims I'm not
surprised. America doubtlessly has done more than enough to p*ss off
all muslims of the world, and with all the fundamental madness America
also is a perfect symbol of christianity at its worst.

Sadly.

Ultimate conflict between good and evil, relationship with God,
missionary work, eternal consequences, importance of getting right
with God the first time around, doing good because it's the right
thing to do, helping people, charity... Sounds pretty engaging to
me.

Sounds nice indeed... but how many christians do _you_ know who really
do this?

Interesting. I've heard the theory of evolution refered to as a
"fairy tale for adults".

Yeah - by idiots who go so far as to deliberately falsify facts to
prove that their creationism worldview must be correct.

Pity. I just started to get the impression that you're not another
madman... now I'll have to think about it all over again.

Roll on the biblical creation vs scientific creation argument...

wheras njiky thinks Stan Lee created the universe...
whereas djirky thinks Tom Mix created the universe...
