How about understanding what Thor feels when he takes up his hammer to kill Entins? Or understanding why Freyr is addressed as He of the hard loins and long staff? You’re probably thinking right now _why would I ever want to understand such stuff? It’s sounds silly and I don’t understand it!_ It doesn’t feel very good when someone wishes (or prays) you’d follow Pagan practices, why should I feel any better when you pray that I take up Christian practices? I know, you’ve apologized for your mistake and it’s accepted. I just wanted to let you know how it feels from the other side.
