(April 11, 2015 at 5:41 am)BrianSoddingBoru4 Wrote: Let's adjust the wager a bit and see how it works:

If Odin is real, you'll go to Valhalla when you die, providing that you slew your enemies and died in battle (for those of you not familiar, Valhalla rocks the most).

If Odin is not real, you'll end up either in some other afterlife (and all of them read as pretty fucking dull) or in nothingness.

Therefore, it is in your own best interest to start killing people.

Boru

I was planning on worshiping Dionysus, but you make a good point.  Maybe I should put down my wine glass and start killing people.
