That is not an endorsement of the Norse religion, just an observation that what your judgement may be depends upon the judge.

I’m shocked by this barbaric act of terrorism! My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and the families of the victims. My respect goes to the brave men and women of the emergency services who risked (and lost?) there lives while they went in where others were running from. They are true heroes.

Frankfurt, Germany

P.S.: Update: 8 pm local time, all church bells in my country are ringing in memory of the victims...

If you believe that there is one and only one GOD then you had better be prepared for judgement by the rules of your GOD.

There have always been multiple religions. It is best to leave the business of GOD up to GOD and not attempt to meddle in GOD's affairs.

My God, all I want to do is wake up.......this can't be real.....

on an off note the one thing that struck me in the tv pictures is that cars and buses were still running, still going somewhere....here (in my city) the garbage is still picked up on time, etc...how can anybody be doing anything remotely normal in the face of something so horrible is kinda strange (as is my posting I guess....)

Even though I am a confirmed agnostic/deist my prayers go with all the families/people who are offended..

Sometimes being a cynical pessimist is an advantage.

The only thing that surprised me about today's news was the amount of coordination shown in pulling off so many attacks in such a short time period. Terrorism experts have been predicting that this could happen for years.

I turned off the news coverage when they got to the talking heads propounding What Should Be Done Now, and the man-in-the-street reactions.
