As a black man with limited knowledge on Norse and viking culture other than the exploits and explorations of the various tribes, is say go ahead, there is nothing wrong with having pride and reverence for your culture.

But as a Christian, if this culture contradicts the empirically, intrinsically sound rules and desires of the one true, REAL God, Jehovah, then you should shed any part of that culture off, and only have pride on the part of the culture that will not diminish the presence in the mind of people.

Have pride in the way your ancestors lived, the clothes, the food, the architecture, the songs, ceremonies, just ways of going about your daily life. But here this, proud Nords. The aspects of this proud culture dealing with any kind of worship or reverence for Gods, or even if you are not directly worshipping these Gods, but only honoring and recognizing the meaning, enigma and lessons the idea of those Gods portray,, as the article states, is still going against the one true God. An above poster said that she is a Christian, but still ascribes to this. Impossible.

It is either one or the other. To those who don't believe in the one true God, Jehovah. Get right. Now.

As a Christian, I agree that we should not be worshiping these gods as THE God. I've spent a number of years researching the Israelite/European connection. I have some
information in some of my books and from articles online
which indicate that Odin was a real person and an Israelite.

I worry about posting links and getting banned, but if anyone is interested in reading more about this just go to Yahoo and type in Ensign Message Odin and read the first two links that come up. You can read a couple more articles if you type in Hope of Israel Odin. The only problem I have with the last two articles is they confuse the word Jew with Judah as if they mean the same thing.

Norse religion is not like Judaism at all.

But it is able to merge with other belief systems, ie, take on other Gods.
