I know that Asatru was important to you when you picked it up in prison. After all, that 18th month stint for forgery was rough, and it wasn't fair anyway. For the first few weeks, you agonized, looking for any justification that might absolve you for cashing your grandmother's Social Security checks at the liquor store.



When the leader of the Prisontru approached you, honestly, you were willing to sign on to just about any religion just to ensure that the hog you ended up getting hammered with was racially pure. It was pretty painful at first, but after a while, you were glad you had painted that picture of Odin and the 14 words on your ceiling.



When you finally left the joint, you went straight to the nearest Barnes and Noble, and shoplifted every book you could find in the NEW AGE section regarding Norse Heathenry. And while you never actually read any of them, you occasionally glance at them, and the artwork makes you feel incredibly manly.



You assumed to title of Godhi shortly thereafter, and began calling the corners and scribbling poorly transliterated Rune "spells" on your cousin's F-150. These days, you have the most respect of any of the religions leaders in your trailer park.



Look, you've grown beyond such paltry identifiers as "Heathen" or "Asatru". It's time for you to stop leaning on the terminology you cribbed from those paths.



Mediate on this at length, and eventually you'll come up with the TRU names of the Gods/Ancestors/Spirits/Runes/Etc.



We only ask that you do us the favor of expanding your personal religion to the point that it no longer resembles Heathenry, even incidentally. You are simply too special for the Heathen Worldview to contain.
