The whole internet loves Old Norse Beliefs, a lovely traditional culture from the Viking Age! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you the Old Norse Beliefs included the practice of child sacrifice.

Wait, is this paper in German? Today I've read about Norse religion in Norwegian (fagfeltet Norrøn religion) but I have to draw the line somewhere!
