Honestly its weird how many people don’t realize that the gods are frightening, and if you expect some sort of direct contact, spiritual or otherwise, you should expect there to be some level of terror.

This is something I’ve been struggling to understand about people who have a sort of casual relationship with the Deities they choose to worship.

Gods are fucking terrifying. They’re HUGE in ways we cannot even comprehend. We are literal worms before Them. 

But then there’s this strange culture (especially online, especially on Tumblr) of acting like They’re just these quirky roommates and not these Primordial Beings That Defy Understanding; perhaps it’s best to describe it as ‘sublime horror meets devotion.’ 

If you’re not scared of your Gods, what are you doing?

Idk, having a healthy relationship?
