    Re: So, where am i gonna be during the Ragnarok?

    Yes, there are many end of the world myths of a similar nature. Especially in Indo-European cultures. Take for instance the Persian myth of Azi Dahaka, which includes prophecy says the serpent will escape from his bonds at the end of the world and kill a third of mankind before the son of Thraetona slays him. There are a number of references in Slavic folklore to a monster or monsters that are chained up or imprisoned, waiting for the day they can be released, so I do believe something like Ragnorak is coming. I imagine that most of us will be dead by then, but some if not most of the dead might be somewhere far removed from the conflict.

    I would be interested in knowing more about the Odin Brotherhood- I think I have read an interview of one of its members. If that interview was correct, the brotherhood tells some very captivating stories.

      It was invented in 1991 by a guy called Mark Mirabello, it claims its ancestory to 1421 amazingly enough, surname Mira sounds like mirror 1421 -1241 death of Snorri, it is a very clever deception to the lover of soundbites and misinformation, but not for the informed scholar of heathenry.

        No, it didn't strike me as a very academic approach to reconstructionism. Still, I got the impression that their hearts are in the right place, at least from the basic philosophy I got from the interview.
