Haha, just call me a Heathen Fundy.Radio Frequency X said:It is interesting how few heathens still seem to hold to this view. However, I'm interested in knowing whether or not you believe the gods of the people are personal gods, or do the ancestors simply fill that role?
I'm not sure I'd call them personal gods. They belong to no individual. They are for our people as a whole. Our ancestors are much more personal though.
divine said:because? and how do you define 'our people', exactly?
Why is it hard to understand that? Odin isn't Yahweh, who isn't Lug, who isn't Zeus. It just wouldn't make sense. He may have some similarities to them, but they aren't the same.
By "our people" I mean those who's ancestors followed the way. This would mean the people of ancient Scandanavia and Germany.
