Stark Differences in US / UK Television

I have watched two programmes over the last couple of weeks that highlight the difference in attitude of Television series on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.

In one, Supernatural, the programme described the Vanir as evil beings that are out to destroy the world! Hardly the truth (if you don't know the Vanir then google them and be educated!)

The other, Candleford, was a BBC period drama that addressed paganism in the form of a tree being consecrated by the local peasants, and the hew and cry of a local christian. This resulted in the local postmistress pointing out that both religeons had the right to exist, and to be worshiped equally according to the will of the individual!

So much for the Land of the Free!

Dear Friend Departing.

A dear friend recently left our lives, but I know we shall see him again in the next. Until then I ask the Mighty Thor to look after him, for he deserves his protection, just as he protected us in this live.

Goodbye for now Solomon, See you Wee Mon!

Jesus: Pagan Christ or Jewish Messiah ?

For two thousand years christianity has been stealing our festivals and celebrations, yet still Asatru thrives.

Christianity's response is typical: Jesus: Pagan Christ or Jewish Messiah?

So our ancient religion is an offshoot of a middle eastern schitzophrenic who was executed (or lived another 30 years in India!)

I don't think so!

Hail Odin! Hail Thor!

Hand Of Thor!

Scientist are claiming to have caught a rare shot of 'upwards lightning', as shoen above. However, is this really a shot of our Mighty Thor, reaching out to catch Mjollnir!

Hail Thor!

Hew wood in wind-time,
in fine weather sail,
Tell in the night-time tales to house-girls,
For too many eyes are open by day:
From a ship expect speed, from a shield, cover,
Keenness from a sword,

Times are hard now, and the financial winds are blowing, time to stock up!

The Future

Men wade there tormented by the stream,

Vile murderers, men forsworn

And artful seducers of other mens wives:

Nidhogg sucks blood from the bodies of the dead

The wolf rends them. Well, would you know more?

Then contact me and I will tell you!

A Turning Point?

After 18 months of mayhem the boys of NUFC have finally got a point! The Gods have obviously re-appraised the club as some of Krul's saves were out of this world. Of course, some would say they were lucky, and if Loki had his hand in this then the turbulent times will continue!
