      If you want to be snarky the same may be said of the origin myths of any   
   religion.  But I have also read that some Asatruirmenn see it all as   
   metaphorical, and that the gods are anthropomorfic personifications of   
   aspects of human psychology and condition.  Now if we can get Young Earth   
   Creationists to see Genesis, chapters 1 and 2, in the same light...
