How the World's New Religions are Fighting Extinction: Nälkä

On March 31st, I was invited to an Easter festival in Germany. But it wasn't going to be any typical festival, this one was going to be hosted by one of the newest endangered religions: Nälkä.

Since the breaking of the "Veil," Nälkäns and their beliefs have been some of the most challenging to accept for some, among the world destroying monsters and physics-defying objects. Their antitheistic beliefs are in direct contradiction to many global religions, and though the small minority of Christian Gnostics have flocked to Nälkä, many others are put off by their religious differences and esoteric practices. This problem has come to a head, where major movements in Scandinavia and Eastern European countries, mostly lead by religious fundamentalists, are dedicated to the removal of previously unknown Nälkän enclaves from their country. These movements are resisted by both the Nälkäns and human rights organization, but governments are doing little to stop it.

I talk about these problems with the German Karcist Heinrich Hermann Sauer, who was the one who invited me to the festival, and has agreed to a standard body plan for this interview.

"We, well, I, hoped to address these issues by the same way you were invited," said the duocentarian with a sly smile.

"If we reveal only ourselves to the public, they would become suspicious of what we do in the shadows. So, in order to alleviate all worry before it becomes ingrained into who we are as a people, simply conduct rituals in public."

And that is what the festival has become. Over the past few years, it has become a staple in Schellerhau, which has embraced the festival. For an entire weekend, the main street is packed with Nälkän food vendors, entertainers, and elders, surrounded by a sea of hollering children and excited tourist, running around the street from the hot dog stand that twists sausages into balloon animals, to the entertainers who pull swords out of their stomachs, everywhere you look there is something truly spectacular to behold.

As we strolled down Main Street, The Karcist and I talked about what it was like coming out from behind the curtain.

"It was a struggle at first," he admits. "Some of us didn't want to reveal ourselves, so it was hard getting used to being under the spotlight, so to speak."

"But I saw that the times were changing, and I needed to guide my people to the best of my ability. As one thing led to another, we ended here, as representatives of our religion."

"Did you get any pushback from other Nälkäns?"

"In Europe? No, we all came to the same conclusion. However, those in America felt… different, so to speak."

"You are talking about what occurred in Maine, correct?"

His eyes were downcast. "The very same."

It was getting dark, so we turned back to see the puppet theater finale. It was adapted from an educational tool for children, but it was so popular that they decided to make it the main event.
