THOR Norse Mythology : Top 10 Facts
Video COMMENTS:
pendragonshall: You say Armageddon which is Christian. Don't you mean Ragnarok which is Norse?
pendragonshall: +B Trotz Armageddon is Christian and I know some people use it for other battles but it's Christian. But when used with Thor it would be Ragnarok. All good. Peace
pendragonshall: +B Trotz LOL. I literally have never heard The Great Flood referred to as Noah and his boatload of refugees. I about fell over laughing lol. Loved it. I got some Christian and a Buddhist friend who'll get a kick out of that. Armageddon actually means the last, final, it's all over battle between Good (GOD) and Evil (Satan). It's more complicated but that's the gist. But it's all good. God I'm still laughing that was great, please take care of yourself and God bless.
