Heathendom vs. Christianity

(Brennu-Njálssaga)

Saga scholar Einar Pálsson construed the Burning of Njáll – title character of Brennu-Njálssaga – around the year 1000 A.D. as an event where the Pythagorean imagery of Pagan Creation Myth was infused with Judeo-Christian interpretation and symbolism.

Towards saga’s end, Kolr Þorsteinsson is the “last arsonist“ slain in”revenge” for the burning of Njáll. In the Section on Christianity (Chapters 100-105) both Heathens and Christians agreed to have heathen Law-speaker Þorgeirr Tjörvason decide whether Christianity should become the law of the land. Þorgeirr lay down under an ox-hide for one day to reflect on the subjet matter.

Then he stood up and ruled in favor of Christianity. Their roles in the timeline of events are indicated by the positive/negative Cipher Values assigned to their names in the next section.

¹Abomination of Desolation

Message posted to friends on 26 February 2014:

While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might “mean“

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097. This is the Cipher Sum of some three dozen names of persons, institutions, dates and events during the reference period, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.
