    The point is that Thor from the movies sufficiently proves to you that he is a God. You not believing in a magical chicken is the same as you not believing in a magical Jesus.

    That is not what we’re taking about. With Thor we’re taking about a God, that sufficiently proves to you that he is in fact a God, so you at that point claiming to still be an atheist towards Thor wouid make you the unreasonable one.

      He’s a god in the same way Superman is. Maybe even a little less god-like tbh.

      Maybe my expectations of godhood are a little high? I’m thinking about the omni-stuff ya know, and Thor is both mortal, and very limited in power.

      MCU Thor just isn’t godlike, he’s super fucking powerful, but a god is a few levels above that imo.

      And if he’s a god because he’s labelled a god, then we’re back to the chicken. The chicken is also labelled a god
