[edit] Living in caves/under bridges?

I have followed the Asatru religion for over thirteen years, and befriended several fellow Heathens worldwide (both online and face-to-face). Not one of them mentioned living in a cave or under a bridge in order to connect with the gods (either as a kindred or individually). For that matter, no ancient Germanic source refers to communal worship in similar places...so it's unlikely that a modern kindred would meet (let alone live!) in caves or under bridges for rituals. Unless you can find a reliable source for that assertion, please stop adding it to the article. --Ingeborg S. Nordén 18:35, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
