Lanz von Liebenfels was not at all an Odinist!!! Was Marby a member of the GGG? No, I don't think so. Sebottendorff left Germany already in the year 1919. (WI)

[edit] Badly needs rewrite

As I have already written in the edit summary. Completely inaccurate and the GGG was not "heavily suppressed by the Nazis". I will translate the German article as soon as POV issues there have cleared (and I have the time). Zara1709 (talk) 17:43, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

The GGG was involved in a complex sequence of fusions and schisms. Apparently it was not suppressed, because it became amalgamated into the Nordic Religious Working Community which was "tolerated but not encouraged" by the Nazis (according to an encyclopedia article by Francis King, but I'm not sure how reliable he is).

I've been collecting together some details from Goodrick-Clarke (and anywhere else) with a view to a rewrite, but no doubt you have fuller information than I do, perhaps we could collaborate on this? Evidently Wachler was a member for a period, and there was some overlap with the Edda Society at least, so I wouldn't entirely throw out the Ariosophical connections in the present article just yet.
