What does an atheist do when he's bored? This:

If there were a fight between two deities from different religions, who would win and why? The winner (based on number of votes and soundness of logic behind them) shall be calculated and posted tomorrow.

Round 1: Zeus vs. Odin

Zeus: Acknowledged "king" of the Grecian pantheon. Killed his father and married his jealous sister, thus predating and out-weirding Oedipus. Master of lightning, shape-shifter, philanderer. Fought against the colossal Titans in the Time before Time. Favorite animal: the bull.


Odin: One-eyed All-Father of Norse mythology. Also shares lineage with evil giants, with whom he is locked in eternal combat. Also enjoys knocking boots with mortal women, but has a significantly less jealous wife. Skilled warrior, but most famed as the perpetual wanderer and seeker of knowledge. His craftiness and trickery is outdone only by his evil brother, Loki. Also known to use shape-shifting and disguise to further his purposes. Favorite animal: the raven.

Cool idea. I dont know enough about these guys to vote, but I do think you'll need more than one day to give people time to respond.

I thought Loki was his son.

No, Loki was half giant, so they were actually more like foster brothers. Lord knows why Odin let him get away with so much shit.

Haha. This topic doesn't really seem to be taking off, so I'll just declare Odin as the winner. Hurray!

Ended too soon. After all, theses guys are immortal... Why rush the fight? IMHO the winner would be Chuck Norris' dream demon. Why? Google it. The evidence is overwhelming.
