And why are all of the days of the week named after ancient pagan Norse & Germanic gods?

The Modern Chinese, on the other hand, call the days of the week this way: star period 1 (for Monday), star period 2 (for Tuesday), star period 3, and so on.

In America, I like Wednesday because that is Woden's Day. He was the one eyed god of the ancient Teutons who hung upside down on a tree for nine days until he gained much wisdom and so forth and so on.
Yeah. Thursday is Thor's Day. He was the son of god, Woden. He had a hammer and he was not afraid to use it. He would pound out thunder and lightning with it. A force to be reckoned with. They even make movies about him.
