Sometimes they did kill their "chosen".

That said, Odin was quite bloody minded but overall fair (by the standards of the time). Unlike Allah, who seems a disturbed psychopath (also by the standards of the time).

Well, well. You learn something new every day. Thanks.

They didn't kill innocent women and children doing their shopping at the village square, did they? Full grown warriors at the height of their powers were their lawful prey.

I am neither a pagan nor a Muslim. I am, in fact, a Christian of the Baptist persuasion. But if I were going to change religions, I'd lot's rather be a pagan than a Muslim, forget that nonsense about the "Abrahamic" religions.

And if I were going to be a pagan, Odin and Thor seem to be a lot better set of gods than those wimpy Celtic deities, IMO.
