That is a pretty general statement and doesn't really apply to everyone. Like myself!

I'm never a fan of complaining about reposts, but this one definitely has gotten a little excessive lately. And by a little I mean a lot.

Odin doesn't see them around either but Odins depth perception is shit.

C'mon man, you normal-visioned people need to stop pulling the "Your depth perception sucks" card.

"More odin" was an easy feat considering the original is clearly a picture of Thor lol. anyway props for fixing it.

This might be the most re-posted thing on reddit and not once has it ever been corrected

[–]pedrote[S] -3 points-2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I have seen a lots of reposts on Reddit, but never this one. I'm sorry about the Thor and Odin mistake though, I didn't notice. And I'm norwegian. Maybe this is more likt it.

[–]Jaboomaphoo 2 points3 points ago

Thats Thor in the picture above. But point taken.

Dear pedrote (OP),

See: http://www.reddit.com/r/atheism/faq#OverdoneSubmissions

Pictures that tend to show up quite a bit

This is most of them. While it can be annoying to see someone garner easy karma for last week's submissions, keep in mind that this is a growing subreddit. Many people may not have seen the pictures before, and some people don't mind seeing the picture more than once.

[–]pedrote[S] -3 points-2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Thanks. FYI, I actually did try to do some research on r/atheism before I posted this.

Note that the message isn't necessarily saying it's a bad thing. There's lots of new people here everyday.

When did Odin promise this? why is this a picture of Thor?

[–]skuk 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Not sure Jesus promised the end of wicked people either.

[–]Nordcore 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well, Ragnarok would be the end of the ice giants as well as the gods themselves.

As for Thor, whats up with the winged helmet? and Mjollnir has a too-short shaft, nothing like the picture

[–]Ragnalypse 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I never got why he didn't just have the shaft made a little longer. Moreover, of all the things you could get wrong due to shapeshifting bug harassment, how would it be the length of the shaft? I'm starting to think our gods might be myths.

[–]Nordcore 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I guess he grew fond of it - or didn't wish to mess with dwarves. They might demand payment

And myths they may be, but they're cool myths :)

[–]Ragnalypse 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, I guess when you get handed the most badass hammer of all time for free, you don't ask for a handle adjustment. Maybe a second weapon designed for snake killing though...

[–]Nordcore 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

snake killing?

[–]Ragnalypse 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I dunno what the comics are teaching people, but by the epic poems Thor is destined to die fighting the world snake, Jormungandr, killing it with him.

Perhaps if he could fight it without having to hit it in the face, he wouldn't die of poison?

[–]Nordcore 1 point2 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Argh, completely forgot about Jormungandr.

I have no idea about the DC Comics, but Peter Madsens Valhalla comics are pretty faithful adaptations in my opinion

Edit: wikipedia link

[–]nermid 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm not going to lie, this is the most discussion I've seen about the length of a shaft that's not a video description on BangBros.

[–]ToasterHuman -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The reason why he did'nt make the shaft longer, is because he throws Mjollnir, and that would be harder with a normal hammer :)

[–]Braskebom 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

No. It's short because Loki turned himself into a fly and disrupted the dwarves Sindri/Sindre and Brok when they were forging it, almost ruining the forging.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mjollnir#Prose_Edda

Also, this makes perfect sense, therefore ,Thor is real.

[–]ToasterHuman 0 points1 point ago

It appears you are right. Good job :)

[–]Th4t9uy 0 points1 point ago

I'm fairly sure, Thor is also depicted as having red hair.

[–]brambi 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Probably in Age Of Mythology, that's where the pic came from anyway.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

St Patrick cleared all the snakes out of Ireland...

St George killed all the dragons in England...

[–]Th4t9uy 5 points6 points ago

No dragons in England? You haven't met my mother-in-law.

[–]Shampyon 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

There's no evidence that Ireland ever had snakes before 1960. They only have one native reptile.

According to the 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia, St George wasn't associated with a dragon until at least 700 years after his death.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

yeah, i know. it was a response to the image, not meant seriously.

[–]MrMastodon 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It was a cover-up by the dragons.

[–]Heavy_Rain 5 points6 points ago

Plus, Odin is way more badass than this Jesus guy.

[–]gmnitsua 3 points4 points ago

Jesus got nailed to a cross. Thor had a hammer.

[–]Abedeus -4 points-3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Odin has a hammer and controls the weather and thunders.

Jesus walks on water and brews wine.

I think the hammer sealed the deal...

How about you try not being a dick and just correcting someone when theyre wrong. I couldnt remember whether Sleipner had 6 or 8 legs so I took a stab at it.

[–]pedrote[S] -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Indeed. Maybe it was Thor who promised that? Shit, I don't know anymore.

Oh wow. I can't believe I fucked up that badly in my favorite mythology...

Well, I guess ragnarok is coming. Tis a shame.

..ON THE OTHER HAND ODIN HAD ONLY 1 EYE ;c

[–]gmnitsua 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Odin's weapon was Gungnir. A spear. Thor is the Gaulish god of thunder.

Jesus didn't brew wine. Wine is not brewed period.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the other guy mention the spear.

[–]bronameth 4 points5 points ago

This has been reposted so many times and still has not been fixed.

[–]NotFreeAdvice 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

to be fair, the picture does not claim that it is a picture of Odin. Who knows, perhaps Odin just delegated the killing off of ice giants to Thor. And then Good Guy Odin decided to put Thor's picture on this poster, so that he could get the credit he deserved.

Geeze, talk about jumping to conclusions! Give Thor some credit, man!

I posted this on facebook. As one here in r/atheism may guess, it led to a shitstorm between a Christian friend and an atheist friend, the former arguing about fucking polar bears. I had to argue both sides to get em to shut the hell up
