What is the CIAK? The CIAK, or Confederation of Independent Asatru Kindreds, inc., is a non-profit religious organisation, incorporated in Alabama, for the furthering of our Asatru community, and to teach others outside our faith about the ancient, but ever-changing religion of our Northern European ancestors. Are you devil-worshippers? NO! We do not have the same religious beliefs as the Christians, hence we do not even believe in the "Devil". I notice that you say it is of Northern European ancestry, are you a racist group? No, quite the contrary. No more than saying "Kiss me, I'm Irish" on St. Patty's day. We are simply proud of our ancestry, and feel the Old Religion of our ancestors, is like a part of us, that has been buried deep inside, and is just now starting to reassert it's self. We have no problem taking members of other races into our organisation, as long as they have an honest desire to follow the ways of our Gods, and Goddesses, and get along well with the other members. In short, the same as everyone else. I'm in the "Circle of Elders", and I have been married to a Latina, and have dated several women outside my race, Black, Hispanic, Piute, Shoshone, Polynesian, etc. Does that answer your Question? OK, but what about Gays? Do you guys allow Gays in your organisation? Sure, as long as they have an honest desire to follow the ways of the Gods, and Goddesses, and get along well with the other members, once again, just like everyone else. OK, I heard you guys were Nazis, what about that??!! Well, your liable to hear a lot of stuff about us, and that is what this Q&A session is for, to let people know the truth. We are not Nazi, in fact we detest sociallism of any form, National Sociallism (nazi), or Marxism-Communism-Liberal-sociallism, to us are all contrary to the Freedom that our country was founded on, but is being slowly stripped away by these self-rightious Hitler/Stalin wannabes. THAT is probably where the root of the name-calling came from. The sociallists simply want us to go away, and have no problem making up, and spreading lies, and accusations, many so vague, as to be unanswerable.
