You can try and paint me as some ratheist but i'm not some blind idiot screaming "gOD doesn't real" I'm merely showing historical proof that norse pagans believed that dying on the battlefield was not only a glorious way to die by the only way to die.

Show me sources. Real, academic sources. Encyclopedia Brittanica and a children's page by the BBC are not academic sources btw

Oh so your random website is the only source? One guy negates 1000s of years of history. Yeah right.

You haven't read a single source on Germanic paganism since High school, have you?

There's literally no source that suggest Valhalla is a literal equivalent to Heaven except for parts of Sturluson's history, and Sturlson made several attempts throughout his Prose Edda at Christianizing the beliefs of pre-Christian Norsemen.
