What are you guys talking about? I admit to not following the
topic thus far but...

Weapons as in what? Are we talking about... say... a double-axe?
From what I get out of it, the double-axe is not a weapon, it's
a religious symbol signifying many things, none of which are
"violent" per se.

As for the bog corpses, again, I fail to see how this is to be
considered outright "violence". What if the corpses were willing
participants in a ritualistic sacrifice? Hell, how does one define
"violence"? Perhaps we're all interpreting it differently.
