Bertie the Bunyip posted: Snort! Fjukwit Bertie BTW, everybody with an alt.net account who posts in soc.culture.belgium will be called Vladimir, isn't that strange? This is in response to a response to a troll with the handle Bertie. In many cases he has chosen several newsgroups to crosspost this thread to. Please don't feed the trolls. It only feeds their sick little egos and pollutes the newsgroups further. Also, be kind to the mentally ill. Don't get into battles with them. Bertie isn't just a regular troll, he's spent years attacking alt.religion.asatru hurling personal insults and false accusations. He has done so using several accounts, too. Here's one. A glance at the number of postings shows that he is obsessive and paraniod: http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...:A%40a.aaaaaa+ Note that he crossposts to get as many people involved as possible, another indication of mental illness. To show his level of obssession, glance at the sheer number of troll postings he has done on news:alt.religion.asatru (ARA): http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...eligion.asatru That search will take you back as far as 2001, and it will show many accounts he posts from, accounts that he uses to have conversations with himself, and so on. He has been trolling ARA since 1999. The man needs pity and medical help. One of his maccabre twists is that he accuses folks on ARA of being Nazis. There was a heathen revival in Germany and Austria in the 1920s and 10930s. Those people were among the first targets the real Nazis sent to their deaths in the concentration camps. The Jews were targetted when Germany and Austria ran out of heathens. Asatru and Nazism are polar opposites much like Judaism and Nazism because of this. Most of the documentation I've read about the pre-WWII Asatru revival has been in print, so I welcome web references the the writings of those who were killed in the camps. The Asatru Alliance's quarterly Vor Tru ran a series on them for several years. What is Asatru really about, then? I follow the old gods and goddesses known in northern Europe in the times before Christianity came through. Thor and Sif, Odin and Frigga, Ull and Skadhi and so on. Their adventures are recorded in the myths of the Norse, Saxons, Goths and so on across the sprectrum of Germanic peoples. Like any religion, Asatru teaches a moral code. It has lessons that lead a person to be a better person. It has Lore that was passed down from generation to generation until it contains lessons of everyday life. Dirk Buerre posts a large list of links to various Asatru resources. To give a quick idea of what Asatru is and who Asatruar, I offer a few of the ones I recommend to newcomers. I'm in the US so I'm most interested in US resources, especially ones that span borders: http://www.thetroth.org/ *The Troth http://www.friggasweb.org *Frigga's web http://www.irminsul.org/ *Irminsul Aettir http://alliance.eagleut.com/ *Asatru Alliance The starting point for read are the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda which are the best preserved Norse myths, and Saxo Grammaticus which contains mainland European versions of the old tales: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...049972-9079868 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...049972-9079868 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...049972-9079868 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...049972-9079868 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=books Hail Asgard!

Don't get me wrong, New Zealand is a great place to live, the natural beauty, freedom, food & wine, certain sports all excel but I got something really deep and ancestral in Ireland. That's a feeling I get in much of N Europe, but not in the USA . Maybe after the invasion, eh? Bertie |

The Lord alerted my mind to the presence of this EVIL article by Bertie
the Bunyip, and I thusly replied: "Dirk Bruere at Neopax" wrote in : "Nik" wrote in message ...
