  • most underated band ever

  • I am not a racist, but I do believe that when you move to a new place you must become a part of that new place. You do not have to take on the religion or even the clothing, but you must assimilate to the culture itself. If you are moving there it is because there is better than where you come from, so do not try to make it like where you come from... Very simple logic.

  • Anti-immigrant is not racist... I am a firm believer in adopting the culture of the country that you emigrate to. My ancestors did that when they came to the US, but now Immigrants feel that they do not need to adopt the culture of their new home, they wish to bring their culture into their new land and force it on the current inhabitants. The US was wrong to do that to the native cultures here, and we are excoriated for it regularly, but certain cultures are being allowed to do it even today...

  • title does not represent the lyrics. mostly a great song about christian oppression. 1000 YEARS OF OPPRESSION!!!

  • Someone, Where the fuck can i get some guitar tab to this!?

  • Is it weird that all i can think of is The Lost Vikings

  • I fucking love this song. I always get lost in it.

  • Rascisim is just a modern form of species survival, for thousands of years cultures have been wiping each other out simply for expansion and the continuation of their people and beliefs. CHristians in america, the cathloics across europe during the holy roman empire, the turkish slaughter of armenians while germany watched and even supplied the turks, what about the afican tribes waring over land selling their captured enemys to the portugeese. The germanic tribes under Alric sacking rome.

  • 7 people wanted the likebar to resemble Eric.

  • It's funny how music by a band leads to a pissing match on who has out-learned the other (ref. to the people below). Next thing you'll be playing the oppression Olympics...

  • This one really reminds me of the calmer tracks of Opeth.

  • my name is Erik :D

  • @godevil1313 ok just saw your comment believe me I *have* read Nietzsche. Now why don't you try learning greek (+Ancient greek), albanian, french and german and I'm just 15.. Albanian and Greek being my parents' language. when you do that (even now, whereas I'm only 15) then I might be impressed, because I don't fall for your cultures-studies bullshit idiot. I can recognize an open-minded person from what he says, and first of all they wouldn't waste their time talking to "retards" as you say.

  • @godevil1313 I'm actually 15 as well, and I agree with you about your definition of an open mind. An open mind means actually considering someone's actions and intentions before you denounce them. No, saying the words "Tutsi" or "Hutu" or "world peace" or even "cultural diversity" does not make you open-minded. For me, history has opened my mind. I don't know what may open others' minds, but that has worked for me. And my last sentence is what I mean. I'm not assuming ANYTHING.

  • @DestroyerOfSense000 thought the comments were locked. Of all those, "world peace" is a state of utopia, (which in itself is cool and impossible) "cultural diveristy" has become a word of hipocrisy these days... And well history and most kind of searches in anything, open's one's mind. Though first things that come in mind are: psychology, music, science (all fields included), religion, history... So yeah, I agree with you.. :)

  • @godevil1313 I wonder how fast you googled Nietzsche to figure out who I was talking about. And look at you go, insulting people's intelligence. If there was any alphabet I was mastering, when you were "reading Nietzsche," it was more than likely the Old High German alphabet, which I just started. So, you're welcome for the great reading I introduced you to. And really, if you're going to play the "I'm better than you game," then I've more friends than you and am a lot more successful than a >>>

  • @GotischOberst 1st of all I'm atheist, and I dont rely one my public school for my education. I read books, and believe me I know much more stuff than you knew my age. we re probably saying the same thing... I NEVER denied humans aren't of the animalia kingdom what don't you get? I'm just emphasizing on the difference between the sapiens and other mammals (or other animals etc) "Humans aren't animals" isn't literal FFS! I think I explained as much as possible what I mean.Now WHATS YOUR problem?

  • @InFlam3sW3Trust last but not least, the dolphin is not second to our intelligence beacause intelligence is proven to be more complicated and divided. its memory, logical, mathematical, emotional, musical, and many other categories. ive heard that about the dolphin but each intelligence can not be compared so easily so that statement is also wrong.

  • @godevil1313; Human's are certainly animals. I'm sure if you speak to any expert - a taxonomist, as one example - you will find they strongly disagree. Humans are classified as animals. Humans are in the animalia kingdom, chordata phylum, mammalia class, primates order, hominidae family, homo genus, and sapien species.Your example is incorrect, about the fish and serpents. Funny thing, they're both animals as well.

  • @godevil1313; A comparison that would work with what you said would be claiming humans are not single celled organisms, although you can trace back to the first multicellular organisms evolving from single celled organisms. However, this is not the case, so it isn't exactly a valid comparison. I recall there being an animalia kingdom, plantae kingdom, fungi kingdom, protista kingdom, and a monera kingdom. I do not recall a human kingdom.

  • @InFlam3sW3Trust i dont think u get what i mean anyways... but the issue is not biological, and i can assure you I know how organisms are categorized, its more philosophical and moral..

  • @InFlam3sW3Trust study the mutations and evolution theory. its like saying serpents were fish before they became serpents. they did *evolve* into serpents from fish. and as i said, we are not animals. we have a brain of intelligence and basic instincts. those are still characteristics from primates we evolved from. intelligence makes us human. if u wanna be an animal, (i dont wanna judge you since i dont know your clear opinion about racism) be one... i prefer thinking.

  • @godevil1313 So you think humans evolved from primates, which are animals, but are not animals themselves.

    And you think you have intelligence. Lol.

  • @GotischOberst what was this..? a quic distortion of what i said to make it look funny..? yeah great job i hope it makes you feel good cuz u suck.. you would have no idea what I can think and i doubt you could perceive anything more complex than 1+1=2. get back to school it might help u idiot...

  • @godevil1313 Hahaha. Oh, that's adorable. You're so butthurt because you have everyone pointing and laughing at you. I didn't distort a thing you said; you said humans evolved from animals, but are not animals. Only someone who had to google what 1+1 is could think that that logic is not flawed. And telling me I suck with third grade spelling capabilities doesn't help your argument, nor hold any validation. Just proves me right.

  • @GotischOberst 1st of all I could spell better than you in my sleep, I just don't have to. 2nd, noone is pointing at me and laughing. 3rd I wouldn't give a shit even if someone did, every time I remember this issue it's because I see the notifications in my home page. I know where humans are categorized as organisms very well, it is you who doesn't get the deeper meaning of humans not being animals. Because animals don't have a brain to process anything, it's all controlled by instincts.

  • @godevil1313 Oh, so the big mushy thing in their skulls isn't a brain? Well then every book and taxidermist is wrong then, I guess. I love your claims to superiority when you've yet to show how you're superior. And I love how you think I don't get what you mean, when clearly, I must, since I'm sitting here using a computer. That in and of itself should show I'm separate from any other animal. But your words are "humans aren't animals," and that's just stupid.

  • @GotischOberst and that's your problem? that I didnt categorize a human as a living organism in the animalia kingdom? and when I say brain, a rat can have a brain but I was refering to the mental property of the "mind" and I think my point is obvious but you just want to make it as stupid as possible? The way you act, I rly wouldn't be surprised if you were a dedicated troll.

  • @GotischOberst If we were animals you would be attacking any idiot crossing your path or looking at you or taking your seat. How's that for a difference between animals and humans? And I'm just trying to make it simplified for you so you can finally get my point so don't go again with your stupid wanna-be-sarcastic jokes.

  • @godevil1313 Also (hate the character limit on these comments), wannabe sarcastic jokes? I was using sarcasm? All I was doing was showing you how flawed your logic is by telling you the exact information you'd find if you could "think" your way out of that imaginary world where backwards thinking is fact. You don't need to simplify anything for me. You already speak like a third grader, so it's real easy to read you. And just as easy to outthink you.

  • @GotischOberst You're barely having *any* success in that. You're the one who made the whole issue personal, talking about what I write, so don't go acting mature-like, ok? and just to finish this I won't be bothering to reply again. If you wanted to be superior, next time don't start with insulting other people's intelligence. The way I see it you're agreeing with me but you just keep it up to oppose me beacause of the way I expressed my idea? and finally yea I am younger than you.

  • @godevil1313 The only reason I don't have success in your eyes is because your logic is so flawed you think yourself impervious to ever being wrong. And that's just funny. It's also funny that you call me a troll and tell me how to act. I'm outthinking everything you say, like most people that were talking to you. And if the point is how stupid and flawed your view is, how is attacking your intelligence not fair play? Curious what makes you think you're younger though.

  • @GotischOberst oh i said i wouldnt be replying but you rly are getting on my nerves... im 15, and you re not outthinikng me. you say my logic is flawed but you can support it with only an expression mistake i made.I didnt tell u how to act, i was just assuming you could easily be a troll. u distort what i say to a great extent. last but not least, i could also say you re not rly clever because of the way u speak and u dont want to understand maturely what i'm trying to explain in a peaceful way.

  • @godevil1313 Telling me to not act mature is, in fact, telling me how to act. And since this was already being discussed, adding with nothing more than what others had already said would be a waste of time, but we can backtrack to that, and it can be three to one: Humans are animals.

  • @godevil1313; Whoever told you humans were not animals should be slapped furiously. Just saying.

  • @InFlam3sW3Trust I know Darwins theory very well and I'm an ardent supporter of it + atheist. human didnt come from an animal. It's absolutely wrong to say human was an animal for the exact same reason that human (sapiens sapiens) has nothing to do with his ancestors (habilis and such) because they are entirely different species. we did evolve from them, and thas why we have some remnants from them. thats all there is to it.we evolved from animals. just like animals evolved from others.

  • This song explains everything no questions asked. This song explains that the real racists try to blame other people and trick them. secret societies and hell that has the cure to it's intentions of trying to trick the people who have the truth and the write intentions and that the evil tried to label themselves as the truth and tried to mix the truth into a lie and theres that one thing or one person that will speak the greatest truth of all.this song destroys every lie ever told. True Justice.

  • i think the song is very good, then i say eric den roten XD

  • whats even cooler is that odin doesn't push people into being converted or want your money

  • its not Eric-.- its Eirik....

  • Just Google Eric the Red

  • Erik Thorvaldsson (Old Norse: Eirīkr Þōrvaldsson; 950 – c. 1003 a.d), known as Erik the Red (Old Norse: Eirīkr hinn rauði[1]), is remembered in medieval Icelandic saga sources as having founded the first Nordic settlement in Greenland. The Icelandic tradition indicates that he was born in the Jæren district of Rogaland, Norway, as the son of Thorvald Asvaldsson, he therefore also appears, patronymically, as Erik Thorvaldsson (Eiríkr Þorvaldsson).

  • @DeadmansWoman I completely agree with you (what an awful shock that must be lol). I love Greek mythology, but it would seem somehow 'disjointed' to celebrate them the way we celebrate Anglo-Saxon or Norse mythology. I couldn't understand another wanting to do so the way we do outside an aesthetic or intellectual appreciation, but I certainly wouldn't want to stop anybody

  • @LMTR14

    'LMTR14' The lyrics make sense if you aren't a retard.

  • @DeadmansWoman it's hard to show courtesy in 500 characters lol. I certainly meant no offence, I just get a little... enthusiastic lol

  • @DeadmansWoman I'm not attacking you either lol, I just don't see why you consider Odinism racist. Preferring one's own racial gods is like preferring one's parents... just because I like my parents, it doesn't mean I'm insulting yours, and it doesn't mean I'm excluding you to say you should love your parents and not mine. Saying 'these are my gods, perhaps you should reconnect with your own' is not inherently racist

  • @DeadmansWoman Well are you racist? Odinism is not inherently racist, nor is it inherently racist to note the incongruity of worhshipping foreign gods.

    You may have kindreds or anything else, but you cannot definitely stop somebody practicing the religion. You can stop them praciticing it with you, but that's an entirely different thing. Odinism is not the incorporeal property of any kindred or confederation thereof, so parochial exclusion is not the same as a definite and intrinsic barr

  • @DeadmansWoman So you're an Odinist? That means nothing; it doesn't place you any better to pontificate on the pragmatics of worshipping alien gods. Odinism is not a 'centralised' religion like Catholicism; the Catholics may be able to say who may and who may not be Catholic, but Odinism/Asatru, etc, are 'open source'. I can't understand why anybody else would want to be an Odinist. It's not racism to note the inconsistency

  • @DeadmansWoman Why? If you visited an Amazonian tribe and they said you have to be a member of their tribe to worship their ancestors, would that also be racist? Why should anybody just trust that you're right? As it happens, nobody has the ability to say what other people can and cannot do, if you're half African, half Asian and want to worship Odin, do what you like, it's no-one else's business what you do, even if it's hard to understand lol

  • like most of the songs on this album I have no clue what's it about

    lyrics aren't one of Tyr's high points...

  • A lot of people missunderstood what i wrote two month agoe and thought i accused Týr for racism. This is what i meant

    I really like Týr. In sweden where i'm from we have a lot of different Wiking rockbands and i think it´s a shame that so many of the swedish ones are racist. I never accused the Faroe Islands or Týr for being racists becuse i know that they are against that shit.

  • This is such complex, deep music. It's a damn rare thing to hear a major seventh chord in metal, and more's the pity. The bassline is the icing on the cake.

  • Does anyone like both Black Metal and Viking Metal? jst asking.

  • @brasileirorusso I do :)

  • @brasileirorusso Yes. I like Black Metal, Viking Metal, Folk Metal, Death Metal, Melodic Death Metal, Doom Metal... I like Metal. ; )

  • These guys have the weirdest sound i love it!

  • @iizlandon My fav is the intro to the song god of war, it reminds me of the old 8-bit music played on nintendos lol

  • @enslavedandcondemned Another awesome part is the end of "The Rune" (main riff+tapping+voice). But God of War is badass too!

  • @HerbredMadness I agree, my fav tapper though is Chris Broderick but the guy in this is really good as well.

  • eric was born in my district/close by? sweet

  • from the viewpoint of a viking supporter or even any race that has had british influence or christian influence, they were tortured and foced to change their views. i mean no ofense but t the christian relligion was barbaric

  • these viking bands arent racist, these rumours started in germany at pagan fest, where they used symbols, which the nazis copied, but tyr stated they hate nazis themselves,

  • Leif Erickson, the king, the original, and the father of the vikings; warriors of the brave, feared no man, nor enemy: Proud to be Norwegian.

  • @android16B Han var islandsk, ikke norsk. Foreldrene hans komma fra Noreg men Leif blei født i Island.

  • @Einheri1989 eg er ret sikker på at Leif pratete på norsk alikevel :P

  • @berserkur19 Ja, dei gamle islandske og gamle norske språka var både norrøne.

  • Comment removed

  • @ownya88 Yes, unfortunately. But one can enjoy their music without embracing their values. :)

  • @powerslave02 Tyr is not racist. Odinism has nothing to do with Nazi's or Fascism.

  • @powerslave02 thats the truth!!

  • @ownya88 Týr isn't Swedish. They are from the Faroe Islands which are north of England as well as part of the Kingdom of Denmark...

    Everyone is racist\bigotous against some group. Period. It's human nature. We all have our opinions, our unique upbringings, and life experiences. There will always be groups of other people who conflict with our specific ideologies, beliefs, or backgrounds. You will never be able to stamp out it. We also have our most fundamental right: The freedom of speech.

  • @rducky01 i never said that they where racists or from sweden. I said that it's a shame that alsmost al wiking - rockbands are racists. I have absolutely nothing against the Faroe Islands. And i have never acused you for being rasict so chill out.

  • @ownya88 If you are stating Tyr in this, they are Farose and they aren't racist. Tis just a misconception as people consider groups like them Nazis when in reality the Nazis use Norse Germanic symbols/runes as the Anglo Saxon tribes ended up becoming the Germans and originated there as well.

  • @enslavedandcondemned I have never said that they where rasicst. Is said that i think it's a shame that almost every wiking-rock band in sweden (my homecountry) are racists. I have never called Týr racists.

  • @ownya88 I was asking if you meant them lol, but understand your reason due to my wording. However, every country has racist people tis human nature to have hatred towards things. Best thing you can do is ignore their poisoned minds and be on your way. Tis what I do as their is no point in debating with them as it almost always ends with violence.

  • @ownya88 tyr is not racist at all

  • @spirit0614 Thats true.

  • @ownya88 i think u are a racist, too... correct me pls if im wrong

  • @xTime2Killx Racist to?

    I said that it's a shame that almost all wiking rock bands from sweden are racists. That does not make me a racist. I have neveer accused Týr or the Faroe Islands for any rasicm.

  • @ownya88 i just asced because of the 88 behind your name...

  • @xTime2Killx oh, thats becuse i'm born 1988 :)

  • @ownya88 lol... sorry

  • @ownya88 I only know of a few viking metal bands from Sweden, and they're not Nazis of racist. Could you name a few please?

  • @ownya88 at least one of the best viking metal bands was from sweden. HAIL TO BATHORY AND TÝR!

  • @ownya88 Sad how only white people are labeled racist...

    And having pride in ones ancestors and culture somehow makes one a racist.

    What a sad joke.

  • @MacHamish the japanese were labeled racist, but yea... it's usually the whites because we sport white pride (damn white trash ruining our good name). aha

  • @MacHamish thats the truth!!

  • @MacHamish its not just the whites friend, many races do it not just whites.. the blacks did it from the 60's-90's... saying one is "proud" is different than saying one is "supreme", theres nothing wrong with being proud, but saying one race is supreme IS racist... we all have pride.. just dont let it lead to arrogance

  • @Verseification agreed with all you said. Just don't use the word race, races etc. there is only one race which is the Human race. Black, whites, etc are Ethnies.

  • @RicardoGadelha

    Ethnicities, although I know what you mean. ;)

  • @ToozeTheBard hehe, sorry. English isn't my mother tongue xD

  • @RicardoGadelha

    Overall, your post was pretty good if English isn't your mother tongue. :P

  • @MacHamish I don't think you could say it any better dude.

  • @MacHamish

    Well maybe one mistaken you for acting as if you're race is supreme, that could lead to that assumption.

  • @MacHamish So here and now I announce: I'm proud of who I am. I'm pagan. I'm white. I'm slavic. I'm 100% anti-racist. Because I CAN be proud of being white and be anti-racist at the same time.

  • @MacHamish That irritates me to no end. Even saying the words white and pride within a few words of each other makes someone look like a klansmen or a Nazi. We all have beautiful traditions and we are not all the same. There is no racist and "reverse-racist", as I have heard it called. Racism is not just what makes sensitive minorities mad! Racism is more of a weapon than an actual issue in the United States at least, we just need to drop it. If we don't stop, it will continue on for eternity.

  • @DestroyerOfSense000cke just checked this out I don't know how you mean it, but there is racism and anti-racism, and well the first is an issue of a person with *real* issues with himself, the latter is hypocritic in my opinion. *Actual* anti-racism is found only in babies who haven't been taught the idea of racism and difference between people, because they are pure of fears instilled by the society.

  • @DestroyerOfSense000 In order to drop racism, I think we would have to delete all history and start from zero, which is unfortunately impossible... (not that it would make sense since we still would need absolute neutrality in every aspect of our world between ethnicities.) That's just my idea of how it would work.

  • @godevil1313 if we don't keep the evidence of our past transgressions, we only invite future generations to repeat the same misdeeds. We must learn to never do those things again. Someday racism will be so far in our past that people will think it is a myth or fairy tale. LOL

  • @Seeknhawk I really think it's impossible... :/ who knows..

  • @MacHamish yeah, it's also too stupid to be called a joke.

  • @ownya88 try listen to "amon amarth" it's deathmetal but they are swedish and are not rasists ;)

    really good band i think

  • @ownya88

    Týr is not swedish...

    and comparing asatru with rasism is ignorant... sorry but it just is...

  • @BryanBournewold I have never compared asatru with racism. But in sweden (where i'm coming from) are like 98% of all wiking rock bands racist or atleast against immigrants. I guess i wrote in the wrong way but what i meant is that i wish that more of the swedish wiking rock bands where more like the farose band Týr.

  • @ownya88 Och Týr är öppet anti-rasister, precis som Amon Amarth, och det är jag hjärtligt stolt över och jag har även tackat dem så personligt det går för stunden(via Facebook). Jag är asatroende och jag är ren anarkist och kommunist. Vikingarock är ju egentligen en ren nationalistiskt/patriotisk musik och är ju inte så byggd på asatro över huvudtaget. Lyssnar på Viking Metal, där texterna bara handlar om Asatro och dylikt. Kärlek till mina bröder i Týr!

  • @ownya88 Tyska Varg är också Anti-Rasister, om du inte visste om det?

  • @ownya88

    Týr is not swedish, and you are generalizing on a wrong basis...

  • @BryanBournewold I have never said that Tyr is racist. 

  • lief ericsons day is tomorrow!!!!!

  • I hate Christianity for what it's done to many cultures.

  • @LonesomePaleRider Whoa there buddy. Lets not start any retarded debates on a Tyr song...

    Just listen to the music and stfu :D

  • @LonesomePaleRider I hate complete morons who generalize entire religions.

    O WAIT. :D

  • @LonesomePaleRider As a lone wolf Gothi, it is not hatred you should show them....it is pitty for their minds being poisoned by the cult started by David the creator of the pseudo puppet Jesus and whom wrote the original bible.....as a Norse Germanic Pagan/Odinist we sure do have inner hatreds towards them for what they have done but let the nature Odin created take them and let them suffer slowly.......tis then they will open their eyes and get a dose of reality there is nothing you can do.

  • @LonesomePaleRider Me being the gothi which is a pagan messenger/warrior oh and yeah I spelled pity wrong sorry busy day x.x

  • 4 fags gave thumbs down

  • the songs about the christian invasion of the north and Where Eric the Reds true loyalties lay as the christians spread their dogma farther and farther into pagan scandinavia while he was in exile in iceland with some of the last free pagans who tried to withstand the christian attack as they discovered more viking lands to atempt to convert and " cure" of there heathan culture as they twisted it.

  • Very good lyrics, speaking very true of christianity and almost all the largest religions in the world.

    Excellent music.

  • Simply put, the song is beautifully written.

  • i hate them for what they did to my famly they just out numberd and swormed like bees to honey thats why im a norse pagan

  • Love the song and I can imagine this conversation probablly happened at some point. Wasn't Eric the Red the last pagan king of Greenland?

  • @theromanian19 He was the first, and last, heathen *earl* of Greenland.

  • awesome el weson ta bien chidalira o que?????????????

  • awesome mixture

  • well if i remeber good eric the red was the one who first discovered America,before Columb

  • @ratzaispirescu Eric's son Leif Ericson was the first to discover North America.

  • @kravenkoa wasn`t it him and his son?

  • @kravenkoa As well as being the first one to introduce Jazz music in North America, blent with pagan metal. Such as it can appreciated in this song. LOL

  • @ratzaispirescu But eric didn´t make account of this, unlike Columbus.

  • this song has got a great chorus, it's upsetting that they're so offset by lots of filler material in between. This song should have had a faster intro and the fat definitely should've been cut from the middle.

  • this song is so fuckin magic, fuckin brillant voice,

  • NIIICEEE!!!

  • Im Christian, and this song makes me sad

    I'm appalled at what the Church has done to many countries

    You're not supposed to force Christianity, it's supposed to be found and then embraced if the individual so desires

    I still believe in God and Jesus, but my heart aches for the Old Norse, my ancestors

    I don't know what to say..

  • @Valcarion You remind of me, lol.

  • brilliant! Hail the Vikings!

  • Erik Raude ruler! Godt jobba!

  • fucking epic band <3

    hope i get to see them live again someday :D

  • Good song, but it's too long!!!! 4 stars

  • it's pretty good.

  • Extremely well trained musicians. To hear complex music theory mixed into viking metal - which I am aware does exist in the form of tempo and chord structure meeting complex scalular patterns (whew....) however - done with such finesse here.

    I hear some John Scofield I swear hehe :)

  • yep, 'valkyrijan' too

  • Jazz Fusion, Progressive, Doom, Power, Faeroese Folk.... Yep, it's pretty much the best mix ever.

  • awesome

  • Rarely do you find an album that holds so much content in its songs. Eric the Red is a flawless album IMO and one of my favorites.

  • Makes me want to take an axe to saint olaf

  • Superbe

  • BEST VIKING METAL SOLO EVER!

  • tyr are the A++++

  • Amazing song. Love it.

  • I think it talks of the ÆSIR, following the prose edda, which talks of the gods journey north, ending with Eric the red, and his saga...

  • the lyrics say everithing about christianity...)

  • Trying to understand the lyrics...

    Is it about muslims from the "sand dunes" coming to the north with their Jihad? Haha. Just how I understood it.

  • Well, I think the lyrics are about Christian missionaries who came to Scandinavia around 1000 AD and spread the faith, and to "save" the Vikings from their hedonistic ways. The whole "as there are faithless you can make believe need help".

  • Yeah, makes more sense :P

    If I was a viking back in the day I would sing the same thing.

  • I think this is right on target. This is about the wretched conversion.

  • @powerslave02 Eric the Red was exiled from Iceland for killing a man, not for his heathen faith. His son Leif became a Christian. Maybe this is Eric's imaginary answer to Leif's attempt to make him a Christian.

  • @powerslave02 if u ask me i think the whole thing was stupid, kings just wanted to expand and be known as all divine ruling kings, and had there little armies and missonaries go expand and say they were right and vikings/norse/pagans wrong. jsut so they could have more power, but thts my opinion

  • @powerslave02 Cool story Bro..

  • @powerslave02

    IMO the Christians tamed us in scandinavia, took our culture away. What we got of culture now is just a shadow of what we once had in the viking ages.

  • @EmberBurn333 Atleast your country and language didnt get raped by the french...

  • @powerslave02 They are considered by many even Odinists to have been false Christians, I doubt do to Historical evidence that is actually true myself......as although I honor jesus and all the other gods and goddesses that exist see all Christians misguided by each other. And simply stating what man says to man, then saying Jesus said it when in fact it was just them.

  • @powerslave02 Long live the Aesir! Follow the Wanderer! I am an Odinist, Home is where the Heathen Banners fly!
