It's a VETY useful trick when christians ask you how you "can" bre an atheist. Especially when you add the cmapaign by Thorosts to get lightning conductors removed from buildings, as they impeded his divine will. Totally fictional by the way.

FYI, there are atheist pagans and monotheist pagans. Paganism != polytheism

I'm talking about paganism as practiced on Antiquity.

They as a rule recognized the deities of their neighbors as true, even if they didn't worship them. BTW, i would like to know how do you decide whether a deity is real or not.

I'm an atheist and I don't believe in Thor (redundant statement) but he's my favorite mythical god. His way of dealing with things is very- blunt. Nor does he have a later segment of the holy book where he suddenly becomes the opposite of what he started out being.
