Afro-Dawg Okay...I need a little historical schooling before I lay down my theory: Is it historically accurate that the old Germanic Norse tribes (who worshiped the Norse pantheon) fought with the Celtic tribes (who worshiped the Celtic pantheon)? If so, through the legends of both sides (I think), wouldn't their gods have fought also? There isn't really one Celtic pantheon. There are a few- and that doesn't include gensis loci on either side.
Quote: I heard somewhere that when people of opposing religions go to war, their gods go to war also. Wouldn't that mean the the Norse and Celtic gods would have met, and, by their own standards, kind of become buddies? There are Greek myths where certain gods picked sides- but I don't think this is a widely held belief about all gods.
There are some people who say that the Vana and Asa fought and that was a tribe verses tribe war- but I don't know if there is history to prove that was right either.
I'd say no, but that's because there's no record of it happening on a grand scale. Battles within group, sure- but not between peoples.

Afro-Dawg Esiris Afro-Dawg Wisconsin. I dunno, I just think it's obnoxious that we only study Greek gods in school. I mean, a few of the Norse gods gave us our days of the week, but no one will tell you that in high school. It's silly. I actually learned that in high school. sweatdrop wat. Lucky. Of course, I went to the public high school where they allowed a Bible Study club and not an LGBT club. The roots, prefix and suffix of our vocab words were part of the English classes I took.

D: Public schools have to choose what they teach. Otherwise we'd never graduate! Well, yes. But teaching the origins of the days of the week would take like...ten minutes. I don't know. I just feel shafted by my high school education. Different high schools do better jobs than others.
