6 Gods Thor Would Totally OWN in Battle

http://feeds.digg.com/~r/digg/news/popular/~3/VcVJ8tXZOHQ/6_gods_thor_would_totally_own_in_battle

As the Norse God of Thunder (and also lightning, storms and oak trees), Thor is, as they say, not one to be effed with.

But the true measure of a badass mythical god isn't his ability to smash coffee cups or seduce lithe Jewish girls--it's his ability to beat the hell out of other gods.
