The best deal in the universe


The Judeo-Christian god has billion of worshipers. All Christians, Jews, Muslims and most of the weirdos on the planet. It has all the worshipers it needs and then some. It can even afford to smite a few every once in a while and never miss them. So here is the best deal in the universe, switch allegiances and start worshiping the gods of Valhalla.

I'm serious, think about it. When was the last time Odin had someone knocking on his door. We create gods and we worship them; we give them existence through our devotion and faith. What happens to them when we stop worshiping them? Well this deal is based on the assumption that once created, an immortal being never ceases to exist. Therefore Odin and his cohorts from Valhalla are right now sitting in a forgotten corner waiting to be worshiped. How many worshiper will they have? You and a hand full of nuts. You are guaranteed all the attention a god can bestow on a mortal. So light a few candles, blast the dance of the valkyries in the back ground and go worship a god that might give a shit. It's a great deal! In a millennium or so, if humans are still around and the Judeo-Christian god is sitting in a forgotten corner maybe someone will cut him a deal too.
