Talk:Asatru Folk Assembly

message: According to the Internal Revenue Service Business Master File which is updated monthly, it has EIN 237158690. It is located at 1766 East Ave., Turlock, CA 95380. It bears an "06" filing requirement which means that it has church status with the IRS and is not required to file an annual report. Stephen A. McNallen is listed as the ICO.
Given that churches are relieved of filing requirements, their status as tax-exempt entities could exist in perpetuity. The California charity registration became inactive on September 29, 2017.

thread_title: Asatru Free Assembly Continues to Exist as a House of Worship

message: As written today, the "Goals" section of this article begins "The AFA's Declaration of Purpose is:" That sounds like an advertisement to me, or a mission statement. Either way I think it needs to be reworded as something more than a mere verbatim quotation. Plinth molecular gathered 21:47, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: the article states, "McNallen was one of the earliest advocates of reconstructing Germanic Paganism in modern times."
Didn't some of the original Nazis advocate and try to practice exactly this in Germany and Austria?
I just want to say that I'm not one of these people.
Jewish Americans, African-Americans, Hispanics, Muslim-Americans, etc., are Americans.
As well, I know very little about this subject.
But surely some of Hitler's followers, and I believe Himmler in particular, advocated this nonsense, before McNallen was born.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:18A:8301:A3C0:69AF:25A2:B4D1:3115 (talk) 07:12, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  mistake of fact, or poorly put? 

message: I'm not sure that there is any point in mentioning this fringe idea, and certainly not in a way that will just puzzle the reader. How is it significant enough for the lead? Doug Weller talk 07:08, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It's redirected towards the Stephen McNallen page so I thought it was likely noteworthy enough to be included in the article. It's some theory about cultural and spiritual inheritance through genes which definitely sets it apart from other groups. Nikolai Gennadievich Nazarov (talk) 07:45, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: (Also replaced the term Racist with Racialist due to the context of the organization's "whites-only" situation, I will instead use both terms because they can both be applied.) Nikolai Gennadievich Nazarov (talk) 07:47, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Metagenetics" 

message: I don't know how to interpret this. I have to struggle to offer good faith towards this type of editing. Edit summaries and explanations on the talk page need to be explicit and not omit important details. Doug Weller talk 09:31, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I've reverted it. The information about the members being fired is supported by the source that was removed. And the insertion of the "based primarily upon disdain for the group's racialist and racist doctrines" is NOT supported by the source it was being inserted into. And anything in the lead should be discussed in the body of the article - so adding "metagenics" into the lead without any mention in the body is also wrong. Frankly, I'm having a hard time assuming good faith here... Ealdgyth (talk) 11:48, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
