You know, half the Vikings who die in battle go to Fólkvangr with Freyja, so I really can't make any promises. I guess you have a 50/50 shot at least.
Freya's a babe, so I'm cool with that. Plus ... all those handmaidens!

my brother's sort of step-brother literally claims to be a religious adherent to ancient greco-roman mythology. he's a teenager and i think he's autistic or some**** like that where they have to send him to a special class. but he's not retarded... seems intelligent or at least on level with his peers.

anyway he's pretty serious about the whole greco-roman mythology thing. he kept bringing it up the one time i met him when we were at some chinese place eating. he kept complaining about how the christians came in and washed away his religion, destroying a lot of the artifacts etc. i told him that was probably payback for throwing them to the lions.

tbh if i was going to worship a god just out of choice it wouldn't be thor or any of those. maybe dionysus cause he knew how to party. but most likely i'd worship the rainbow serpent from aboriginal australian religion cause it's a giant ****ing snake.

Prexactly. Ragnaroked if you do, Ragnaroked if you don't.

A religion is only dead when all of its enemies have been slaughtered. Apparently there is at least one still at large.

I got one of those Cthulhu fish-stickers on my car. That's the closest I've been to actual worship since childhood (and then it was mostly just a feeble attempt at prayer to make my C64 School Daze game load properly).

My impression as a norwegian is that the worship of the old gods here tend to be limited to groups of racist, nationalist turds like Vigrid .. or possibly black metal musicians, but I think that was more in the 90s. Still, the mythology itself is pretty awesome.

Nice, but your usage of "doth" is grammatically incorrect. You get a B-

i won't lie though i've tried praying many times

usually in split second moments of desperation

and usually not addressed to any one specific deity but rather any deity that might happen to be listening atm

beggars can't be choosers imo

Thor's role in the dreaded Ragnarok, the Twilight of the Gods which would signify their end, was as crucial as his role in life: the thunder god was to destroy the serpent Jormungand, but at the end fall dead from its poisonous breath.

So, he croaks but takes the ****ing WORLD serpent with him! Now THAT's how to go! Comic book my ass! Don't you read mythology??
