Good idea.

Not.

I respect the atheists more.

Will they be serving SPAM?

“....celand’s neo-pagans still celebrate the ancient sacrificial ritual of Blot ....”

would that be...INK BLOT..

blot indeed!

Thanks

About as bad as building a mosque.

[Publius]

Based on “Vikings” on the History Channel, I’m wondering if they will have that annual human sacrifice.

[MeshugeMikey]

they have a ritual called BLOT...so somehow I ‘m thinking that Spam ...might fit right into their plans

[Perdogg]

ping

[MeshugeMikey]

they are similarly “spiritually” bent...but thankfully they dont seem to officially adhere to beheadings and the like...at least not in the 21st century

[Mr. Blond]

Joke’s on them, the Vikings didn’t use temples.

[faithhopecharity]

Blot blood rites varied, often horsies and pigs but...
the Danish version on Zealand, at least, reportedly included 99 human sacrifices

....

progress?

[conejo99]

Probably good for tourism.

Bloody Vikings!

They probably pillaged a few of my ancestors’ villages, and thus, the blue-eyed Inuit!

We come from the land of the ice and snow
So don’t go where the huskies go

LOL.

Money down the drain, stimulus Icelandic style.

OK, this one is a bit of a stretch, but since so many North American Lutherans have Scandnavian roots, I'm doing it:

Lutheran Ping!

Christ is in our midst!

[MeshugeMikey]

ahahahah Africa and Asia..have Panther Whizz....and well you know the rest

[MeshugeMikey]

I wonder if its allegedly sustainable?..../

[MeshugeMikey]

Hopefully.
