Yes, but even then, this "legend" was known before the existence of Christ, so for his influence on it, it really doesn't have any place to do with it.
In fact I said nevermind about this because being knowing you all I already knew you would claim this :Smug:
nd if you want to say that Odin truly was egoistic for the fact that he wanted to "win" the runes then so be it,
It's not "so be it", I see you don't have arguments to prove your thesis, but well...I expected this from what I've read so far, it's written, every scholar says it, maybe you should READ more than only report something heard or seen on-the-fly :Smug:
but he did it for like I said, community and "family".
Eh don't know what to do....Odin didn't give a rat's ass about community and family, I can report with detailed description and SCHOLAR essay hundreds of episodes where Odin proved to be a pretty egoistic person, if there was one god that had to do with community was Frey and under some aspects Thor, and with family Heimdall, but again if you don't prove me you're versed with it like I did, it's worthless keeping explain
Also, I find it funny that you called your ancestors rednecks.
I'm proud of it, being redneck is the noblest thing in world, have you ever worked in countryside?, or being always sit down before the pc screen? This is the difference, for you redneck is a scorn word, for me is a sign that one works hard with his hands
I don't really think you have any place in this conversation until you come from a more "neutral" point of view, it's quite obvious all of your "opinions" are coming from a Pro-Christian PoV
said by one who "hates Abramatic religion" it's really naif, I'm not proto-Christian (suppose you don't even know what it means else you wouldn't use it) or wathever I can talk here about norse religion, greek-roman, monotheistic, politheistic etc etc. whenever and wherever you want don't know if you understood but I'm a scholar, I don't do like others do entering discussions that they cannot sustain for their little knowledge about it, I study religions, ethnology, and mythology at UNIVERSITY so for this I'm so clever about it, maybe you should find in the dic. the word "prejuidice" before labelling people
and it's just funny to see yet another follower scrambling to prove absolutely everyone wrong.
uke: I'm not a follower, and I'm not scrambling, I don't want to prove anything save the truth, Alec was right and I explained him what was the deal, the other guys I didn't go against, I'm beating only you so hard because you're spreading non-existing things about religion and mythology, and also you, c'mon, I had to call you back else you would ignore my post for, let's say slow-voiced, FEAR
Before you continue to indirectly insult people
Hm, maybe someone erased my swear words, or oops I never insulted everyone, mine is called "irony" a word maybe unknown to you
, I'd just like to say one thing to you. Haha. That is all.
Oh, mama please someone scorned me
PS: Christians no longer believe in Proto-Christian belief, I'm not sure if you've realised this?
Again with this Christians, Have you an inferiority-complex with this word or what?
Just an advise, READ MORE DON'T LET OTHER THINK FOR YOURSELF! Be indipendent-minded, sorry if I'm beating you to death but, you'll thank me eventually
