Why is it that people have "respect" for people who believe in God or Allah, but finds it funny and laughs at people who believe in Odin and Thor?
Is it wrong of me to think that's funny? That people finds it funny?
it's because 99% of "neopagans* are larping retarded faggot degenerates who only embarrass themselves by trying to practice this religion, which they get completely wrong and project a bunch of hilarious biases onto (they basically "practice" it by acting out a Christian negative caricature of it and by using Christian attitudes toward nature, toward metaphysics, and toward what a god is and does)
virtually all neopaganism, including most practiced forms of Asatru, are derived from 1800's occult magik practices and Wicca anyway. They need some real scholars and theologians to work out a new attitude towards it that makes sense in the modern world. "Reconstruction" is really just "reenactment"

oh, and another mistake they make is trying to be "tribal". Tribalism is dead in that sense. Just because you hang out once a month and drink out of horns doesn't make you a "tribe", it makes you a "club". A more realistic method IMO would be to build semi-public shrines

Because muslims kill people who insult them

People have respect for buddhists and hinduists too...
If people met a buddhist or a hinduist IRL they would threat them with respect (yeah you too), but if they met a guy who believed in Odin they would just laugh.... why is that? Doesn't make sense at all

Do you have any evidence that shows that actually happening?
I wouldn't think there would be anyone worshipping old norse gods other than autistic fantasy spurgs

this
in Iceland it is the second biggest religion, and they are actually quite popular/have a good reputation. I think a lot of Icelandic celebrities are involved too

Couldn't you say that for any religion really?
Like this:
"I wouldn't think there would be anyone worshipping god or allah (same god really) other than autistic fantasy spurgs"

Yeah, it's growing. Sometime in the future it will be the only world religion.

kek, that headline is so off. They try to be open and accepting of different interpretations but atheists are so quick to say "so you don't REALLY believe this, right?"
