When did Jesus say that? I can't see it an any of the Gospels.
I was brought up Presbyterian, but hate the way they changed. All the ministers see so wimpy and effeminite now. I prefer Anglican services now, but rarely go.

It's the "revival" of Norse Paganism, though usually more of a cultural / folk interest than a belief system. The pantheon is generally worshipped in a metaphorical sense.
Here is what I believe in. As I am am not a terribly religious person; I am more philosophical than religious. So I just thought it would be a nice idea to clarify my philosophical views on all things relating the meaning of life, the universe on this webpage. I was keeping it all to myself for a while, but then I thought, why not?
After all if I was a religious person albeit a practicing Buddhist, Catholic or Jew etc everyone would have a fair indication of what my beliefs are but since I am none of the above I could believe in anything they are concerned. I do not in anyway do this web page as a means to proselytize or convert people, but I would like the put in black in white what my personal beliefs are for all to read.

Cool - I like Norse mythology. I think other religions borrowed from parts of it.
