I do find it xenophobic that people constantly refer to him as a demigod. It's a very Judeo-Christian point of view, denying that other cultures might have more than one god.

..."Demigod" is not a Judeo-Christian thing. It comes from Celtic and Greek mythology.

I think that you've missed a few steps. If you call him a god at all, you're taking it out of Christian mythology. And -demi has nothing to with the number of gods.

Um. A demigod is someone who has one parent that's a god and one parent that's a human. It's not a Judeo-Christian concept.

I think people keep calling him that because in the scene where Tony threatens Loki (while getting the bracelets for the other Iron Man suit), Tony refers to Thor as, "Your brother, the demigod."

[nyxelestia]

I always thought it was more of a compromise in reference to just what Thor is. On one hand, he's considered a god here on Earth - not a demigod or spirit or anything, but a full on god, to the point even Natasha calls them "basically gods". On the other hand, he isn't a god, he isn't the embodiment of Lightning and Thunder ruling Earth, he's just an alien from a species with a long lifespan and technology so advanced we can only call it magic, and he just happened to come to Earth during a time when being awesome resulted in worship and eventual godhood.

"Demigod" is the middle ground between "god" and "not a god".
