am sorry

I don't see why you should have a moments silence because someone ran in front of a car.

Minutes silences are supposed to be to remember those who gave their lives in a war. Not for those who are shot by police because they act strange. Not for those who jump under a bus.

I can understand why you'd have one after a terrorist attack such as 9/11 or 7/7, but a minutes silence should only be used to remember those who died giving their lives in war.

yeah i agree with lenny
but, what if it was a important person that died in an accident?
silence or a funeral wouldn't be bad right?

You must realize that what is important to you is not important to others Ailis thus I would never ask someone to take any moments of silence for me even if I died in a war. That is just pretentous to assume that anyone but your family and friends would give a rats ass about you dying.

Besides I would rather have people party to my death rather than mourn it anyways cause I could always come back and haunt a computer and play video games all day long right?

If you die you don't come back to and play video games.

If you die you don't come back to and play video games.

Actually you do.

Yes, o mighty dark one.

Wodan?

Wodan was an ancient Germanic sky god. Wodan was known as Woden or Wotan to the Saxons and later Odin to the Norse. Wodan was also the god of war.

Wodan became an increasingly popular Germanic god, who replaced Tiwaz (Tyr), as the chief sky god and war god. Odin inherited many of Wodan's roles and attributes, as well as those of Tiwaz.

Wodan was particularly popular among the noble class, but was less popular among the working class and peasants. The rural people tend to be more interested in Donar or Thunor (Thor), the god of thunder.

Wodan (Odin) was the husband of the goddess Frija or Frea (Frigg). In the Lombardic myths, he was called Godan and was the husband of Frea.

Wodan was not only the god of war; he was the god of victory in battle. Victory was achieved in battle, when he pointed his spear in favour of one army over the other.

Wodan was death and blood sacrifice. The Cimbri, the Heruli and the Goths carrying out sacrificial rite, by stabbing and burning their victims. This would account for later Norse myths, when Odin stabbed with his spear and burned the Vanir goddess Gullveig three times, but each time, the goddess would be reborn. This attack upon the goddess, resulted in a war between the Aesir and the Vanir.

Like Odin, Wodan was the god of hanging. The Cimbri sometimes hanged their captives over the bronze cauldrons, while the priestess cut their throats. These sacrifices to Wodan would then later be thrown into sacred lakes. However, the Norse myths say that it was Odin who hanged himself, in order to learn the magic power of poetry and the magic of the runes.

The Roman identified Woden with the Roman god Mercury. The Germanic people honoured his name by naming Wednesday after him. Wednesday was also dies Mercurii (Mercury's Day).

Woden along with six other deities was mentioned in the Second Merseburg Charm, c. 900.

That sounds like something off of Wiki...but I'm just overwhelmingly happy to see information about Wodan.

It's actually off of a random website I found on google when I searched "wodan".

And here I was hoping you were a Nordic Mythology afficionado.
