Thor was the just story we told children to help them sleep on stormy nights.  We didn't expect adults to take it seriously.  Similarly with Jesus.  We were trying to make the kids stop hitting each other.  Who could predict that "turn the other cheek" and "do as you would be done by" would turn into fight club?
