Pagan Viking Sea Kings spend the 10th and 11th centuries morphing into Christian monarchs. But with rulers like Harald Bluetooth and Svein Forkbeard it's debatable whether things will be any less horrific for Scandinavia's neighbors
Today's show is part two of a two part series on the spread of Christianity to the far north of Europe and the last holdouts who still believe in the ancient pagan germanic gods of the norse sagas, the Odins and the Thors and people like that.
If you didn't happen to hear part one, you might want to catch that before you hear this show.
Both shows are actually a continuation of our 2012 series called Thor's Angels, and if you want that, that's available for a nominal fee from our website.
One last thing.
Stay tuned at the end of today's show for some announcements of live appearances I might be making in a town near you.
So without further ado, let's kick off today's ending of our two part series here with Twilight of the eyes.
Ear part 2.

Ich bin ein Velina.
Mister Gorbachev, tear down this wall.
The deepest question surrounding the entire area.
I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their president's a crook.
Well, I'm not a crook.
If we dig deep in our history and our doctrine and remember that we are not descended from fearful men, it's hardcore history.
Parallel universes, simulation theory, infinite world hypotheses, other dimensions.
I'm not smart enough to understand these concepts, but I have been fascinated by them ever since I was first exposed to the ideas.
