I didn't watch the video linked within, but my thought based on your description of the encounter between Odin and Our Lord - is if Odin did bend the knee to the King of King's, and if he is understood to be a demon or fallen angel in the Christian understanding, then there's an interesting idea of angelic redemption and whether it's a possibility or not.

Not sure where you stand ecclesiastically, but as far as I understand within Catholic teaching, all angels who followed Lucifer in his rebellion, made up their minds in that instant and are unable or unwilling to repent.

I appreciated and enjoyed your musings!

I have no idea how Odin fits within the Christian framework, and frankly consider it outside my pay grade. I just thought it was a good thought experiment. Sometimes you just have to admit ignorance.

Thanks for the kind words.
