    I agree that if they do exist, they are demonic entities. And probably many of the false gods are actual demons with an ontological existence. Satan himself can masquerade as an angel of the light (2 Corinthians 11:14) - e.g., apparitions of Mary and such, which convey messages that contradict the Gospel.

    God is sovereign over the entire universe. There is nothing that Satan or any other demon can do that contravenes the sovereignty of God. Satan and his minions cannot do a single thing that God does not permit them to do. In the case of God's children, Satan can and does accuse, tempt, and harass us. Satan's design is always malicious - but what he intends for evil, God ultimately wields for good (see Genesis 50:20).

    So anyone who worships Satan or any other false god or demon is worshipping an inferior and essentially powerless entity.

    Im pretty sure Denmark has no surviving "viking" temple from the viking period left. Im not even sure they existed at all.
    The ones in Norway are churches in nordic style. They signify our conversion to christianity.

    We have many viking longhouses left in Denmark but no temples, i've been to several of them and even spend a night in one. The "viking temple" idea is a modern interpretation of what vikings were thought to be.

    This figure in the danish passport is a national symbol yet again signifiying our conversion to christianity.


    Secondly:
    Claiming vikings were welcoming to other cultures is just without any sort of good evidence. There is nothing that supports this.
    He is basically saying, well the culture of the nordic countries today is extremely welcoming to foreigners etc. well then they were back then aswell.....come on dude.

    It's an abomination and an insult to God... it should be taken down.

    Either this or an indigenous Scandinavian deity, Odin is surely not an Indo-European god. Tyr or Donar were probably the chief of the Aesirs in the Proto-Germanic pantheon before Odin took their place.

    Odin was in proto Germanic pantheon,the name "Odin" cames from proto-Germanic "Wodanaz"
