There are parts of it that are quite beautiful and even interesting in a badly-written blockbuster kind of a way, but at the end of the day its poetry does not compare with that of the Kalevala, and for wit, excitement and wisdom, the Eddas have it beat all the way.

It varies book to book. Some are important cultural foundations. Some are interesting histories, albeit long on spin (but the same can be said of Shakespeare). A few books are ancient poetry, older than Homer) that were passed down orally for centuries before being written, their aesthetic value being the key to their longevity. A few were simple compensations for changing times and some were just endless writing with little to say.

It all went a bit Stanley Kubrick and psychodelic at the end

Some of the stories are good fun, my favourite is The Song of Deborah.

No… The plot had holes big enough to drive a train through and the contradictions were very distracting….

It is so disparate. From very beautiful writing, to nonsense, to terrible writing, back to some beautiful writing. All members of Western Civilization owe it to themselves to read it.

the bible is a big contradiction to everything we know to be true. so for me it was a pain.i think jesus is awesome if he were real. and the only reason im atheist is because why choose christianity? just because its the most popular? and the only reason its the most popular is because it was forced on people for hundreds of years? any religion that does more harm than helps is in fact no religion at all.

I enjoyed parts of it, the sex and violence and intrigue...couldn't stay awake through the "begats" though.
