How The Germanic Peoples Believed In Their Gods - Pagan Belief Explained

Описание: When we talk about belief in the gods, we often imagine faith, devotion, or moral obedience.

But for the ancient Germanic peoples, belief worked very differently.

Their gods were not all-powerful.

They did not demand blind faith.

And they were not distant creators of the universe.

1. Belief Was Not Faith

2. The Gods Were Powerful - Not Omnipotent

3. A Gift For A Gift

4. Belief Without Certainty

5. Belief Was Local, Not Universal

6. Widely Accepted Gods In The Germanic World

7. Gods Were Not Morally Perfect

8. The Gods As Witnesses

9. Conclusion
