Of course, in English "God" is simply "God", but in Old English culture He was
Woden. I think people used to torture prisoners for Woden. Sounds cruel. "In
the name of Odin, has Grendel's arm grown anew? :D" Hmph... Germanic culture
is of course interesting but I have limits, I do not want to learn it
thoroughly. I have been trying to study old Finnish culture, and I have
succeeded somewhat. Wainamoinen (Väinämöinen) used to be the law book of the
Finnish people, he used to tell what people could and couldn't do. Wainamoinen
told not to rock on a rock, not to commit incest and not to take too young
sexual mates. Hmm. Interesting. And Wainamoinen cut with an axe on his knee
accidentally. Wainamoinen is like God, Wainamoinen is Ukko Wainamoinen, a bit
like Ukko Ylinen Jumala. Wainamoinen is like Odin, but more peaceful, who
builds boats. Anyways, I must take Wainamoinen seriously to be a good Finn,
even though he is a folk myth, a folk legend and a fairy tale, just like Odin,
angels, devils etc. I do not say that there cannot be a God, but I say that
the Christians and the muslims are wrong if they say that Nature is not God.
