There are gods from other religions and cultures in the show. Also, they kind of explain why the Christian God and Christian mythology is most prominent.

[(Anonymous)]

DA but curious, what explanation do they give? I used to be a huge fan of the show, but I quit watching when it got all preachy.

[fingalsanteater]

I don't know if they actually "give" an explanation. But, what I got from the various encounters with other gods is that the old gods are pretty weak because no one really worships them anymore. They are kind of hiding out.

Christianity is the prominent religion in the US (where the show takes place), so that religion and the elements of it is going to be the most prominent because God has power there.

I've never noticed it to get preachy? It's not saying to be a Christian. In fact, religion is treated pretty cavalier. God is dick. Angels are fallible and also dicks. Lucifer isn't even in charge of Hell anymore.

I have a lot of unhappy childhood memories of church, so I wanted to avoid the reminders.

This. Also, they point out that it's the Christian apocalypse which is why the angels and other Christian religious figures tend to take center stage. (The other gods, btw, are pissed about this and tend to argue that their own apocalypses are much more important and who do these jerks think they are?)

[fingalsanteater]

I couldn't remember if that thing about it being the Christian apocalypse so that's why all Christian theology is important right now was canon or something I read in a fic. But, yeah, that too.

ayrt

I don't think they've ever come out specifically in canon to say that's why there are so many more Christian mythology figures but the bit with the other gods grousing about it is totally canon. It happened in Hammer of the Gods and was one of the only good things in that episode.

I remember laughing out loud when Odin said that if there was no giant wolf for him to wrestle, then it was not the End of the World.
