Welcome to the MythTickle plane of 'reality', where eclectically charming deities and legendary creatures try to get along and hopefully bring some comfort to the world, whatever you may believe in. There's good ol' Boody the dragon, the ultimate upbeat innocent and Sir Dudley, the cynical Scots knight who disdains him for being his best friend. There's Dziva, African creatrix and goddess of life; Anansi, the trickster spider god; Thor, the surly son of Asgard; and of course Karma quick to rage, quick to joy, and obsessed with balance. Displaced in time and place, they and many others learn from Ms. Nature, patient teacher of this unruly horde. Loki, take your seat. Shiva, go stand outside. Anubis, don't throw the erasers, and everyone mind the holy bees! You never know who you'll meet in Mythtickle.

I’m often impressed by Justin’s knowledge of mythology too. Just when you think he’s got a bit of everything, he adds a bit more. Well done, Justin!

Besides the Internet there are some great books on the Mythologies (former religions) of the world.

Troy was real so using the same Biblical points then so must the gods of Olympus.

Some of those “Former Religions” still have believers.

Aww. I like Rhiannon and her little horsie! Don’t be such a literalist, Troy-boy!

I have a nephew (32 years old) who is a follower of Thor. He wears Molinjr around his neck.

Being of Welsh descent, I do need to look at the Welsh Mythology.

Indeed they do.

re: joe
not really. The modern neo-paganism in the EU is little like the ancient practices. most of them take their base from 1920s occultism. One doesn’t see those calling themselves Druids today watering trees with human blood or teaching the kids or doing divination by cutting cows or people open.

Some things aren’t allowed anymore. Even they can modify it.

Unless the ‘Danaos’ in ‘timeo Danaos et dona ferentes’ is a garbled version of ‘Don’.
