The God Thread

I have a fondness for Braggi for his creativity in song and artistic expression. :D Though Odin has had an impact on my life, I'd never work directly with him. The things that Odin has helped me with personally are in struggles to fight against impossible odds, and in the pursuit of knowledge.

With that said, though, I feel far more drawn to the idea of local spirits such as wights than I do with greater concepts such as gods. Of the pantheons and theological frameworks out there, I do love the Norse themed ones the most!

I don't currently believe in literal supernatural beings, though, so any future rituals or observances would be within the context that they represent meaningful concepts to me on a psychological level. For now, though, I'm fine with not actively practicing anything at the moment. :)

Post the name(s) of the god(s) you worship/work with, along with the reasons you work with them. Also include the name of the pantheon if you have one.

The God of Abraham. He has many names and has Manifested Himself to humans throughout the history of our planet. I believe God has communicated with humanity through Great Teachers. Their Teachings make sense and are of practical benefit. My pantheon includes angels, holy souls who have passed from this world to the next and my ancestors.

I used to help out with the Prince Phillip Trust, he was considered a god by the Vanuatu tribe. And I met him at the Bristol Old Vic. I wonder how many other atheists can claim to of met a living god?
