Way way better, no oppression requirements and no discrimination of minorities or foreigners.
I think the Norse gods are probably among the least bad. And that's the reason the Scandinavian countries were the last among European countries to be Christened.
Yeah what the f were they thinking?!
I remember wondering why when I learned about it in school.
It is also notable that Christianity did not manage to change the name of winter solstice holiday to Christmas or something similar, Christianity is notable for taking over local traditional holidays, and rename them so they become completely absorbed as Christian holidays.
But Scandinavian countries still call Christmas "Jul", so their is a strong trace of the original tradition.
Luckily Scandinavian countries are also the first to abandon Christianity, and are among the least religious countries in the world.
Any idea what jul stood for?
