I look forward to it, although it'll have to wait until the Olympics are over and I've finished Sleepy Hollow (and some other things I'm supposed to be watching...).

I just could not get into sleepy hollow. I have a prejudice against things which, as a core premise, take aspects of the Bible that can't be backed up by archeological data as fact, and horsemen definitely count. (Oddly, that prejudice doesn't extend to taking aspects of Greek or Norse myths as fact, so long as they get the mythology more or less right. I never said I was rational.)

[waterfall8484]

That's fair. :~) I try to ignore the specifics of the Biblical stuff, because otherwise I just want to check if that's actually what the Bible says about the subject - and I'm not even Christian. The same with other religions, although The Almighty Johnsons and Thor have made me more relaxed when it comes to Norse interpretations, as they are very creative in their changes.

I'm an atheist myself, which might be why it bugs me. Nobody seriously tries to convince you of the truth of Norse religion or Roman, after all.

That is so very true.
