That they do. Also, HI BATTY! *hug tackles*

UWAAAHHH!!! -FALLS OVER.. and hugs back- <333

I can name SO MANY TIMES I've called out the show Supernatural for their mistakes. xDD;

That bad? I know there are some areas where they messed up....

-flops about in bunker-

*sighs* Might I direct you to the giant swimming pool so you aren't flopping around so much? Or perhaps to the aquarium sized fish tank? *points to*

Yeaaah.

Especially when it comes to the "Pagan Gods."
Now, I'm friggen Pagan. I KNOW Samhain wasn't an evil demon.
-rolls eyes-

I just chalk it up to "OH, THIS IS AMAZING FICTION!" or else I'd get really mad. xD;

Well, mainstream society is not comprised of those who truly understand the various embodiments of different spirits/deities, and thus they tend to twist information/facts about "Pagan Gods" to something more "sinister" or perhaps just, as you put it, interesting (which in many cases tends to lean more towards the side of "evil").

Just as a quick disclaimer, I'm not bashing anyone, just stating context and what I've observed so far.

I'd have to agree ~ I'm an anthropologist. I learned so much.

My cultural anthropology class last semester showed me some of that, but mostly it was just comparing society as a whole to what representations are given by both Hollywood and the media....quite interesting, if not a bit time consuming if done in its entirety.

I had very specific anthro classes, one of my favorites was anthro of sport - which is nothing like what it sounds. I was afraid it would be like football and basketball, it was really about cultural sports from around the world and their significance in that society. Religious, social, monetary - I loved that class.

Ooooh, very nice. Out of curiosity did it delve into the Aztec/Mayan sports?

Yes it did, but I had a separate Maya class, so there wasn't that much. The professor knew that and didn't want a whole lot of overlap.

That professor was also damn cute. I love smart men.

Wow....can tell you were definitely interested in that class.

Only reason I ask is because I knew that both cultures' sports had a lot to do with their religious practices.

I know - Although I was more interested in the clothing of the peoples than the sport.

*chuckles* Yeah......they were quite....interesting to say the least.

There were no classes on the fashion and dress though, so it was self discovered.
