00:00:00.000I think a lot of people get into a thought process that, especially if they're coming from Christianity, and Christianity says, oh, you know, these people had a God of this, a God of rain, a God of rocks, a God of, they try to oversimplify.
00:00:20.340No, our holy divine beings are divine beings, and there are primordial forces at play here in the middle, in the material, and the gods have the ability to affect them, perhaps some better than others.
00:00:39.640But the idea that there is Lord Odin creating a storm for the sake of this moment would not be, there would be nobody in the audience going, I thought that Thor was the god of storms.
00:00:57.060No, that'd be like, you know, you see Svan out mowing his lawn, like, wait, you're only allowed to talk about lore on VNS. What are you talking about?
00:01:07.840you know um real people do lots of things real entities real beings can do a great many things
00:01:17.560um there may be things that they are most noted for or that they are particularly
00:01:24.120powerful at or they choose to display their power through there may be symbols that are
00:01:32.140associated with them but our gods are it's going to say three-dimensional but our gods are
00:01:40.760four-dimensional our gods are well-rounded and multi-dimensional they're not
00:01:47.580two-dimensional things they're not thor equals strong odin equals wise
00:01:57.840tier equals justice like no those associations are fine and if
00:02:04.400if you're brand new and that helps you start down paths to understand them that's that's wonderful
00:02:11.440if you're a young child and that's how you get your first you know something to hold on to about
00:02:18.800who these gods are amazing great but that's that's where we start to understand uh the
00:02:25.680it's not where the end of that understanding is.
