How the hell did Blood on his Soul survive being mulched to a pulp

Shiro was a Baptist. Stating first that I am an atheist, and as such this is merely amusing from an outsiders point of view, the Bible would seem to disagree about what the White God would put up with. From Exodus Chapter 20
--- Quote ---5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

Given that quote it seems that he might have a problem with Odin snatching up Murphy.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Odin has Soulfire and works as St Nicholas lunching with Uriel once a year, he’s working for the White God, an agent not a limited as Uriel, nor as specific as being a Knight. With Soulfire used to make Einenjharen, there is a chance Murphy will meet Jesus among the Einenjharen still waiting to be forgotten by mortal memory, and really, really fed up with boar and mead diet. “I would kill for some loaves and fishes, and a nice drop of water or wine”

Uriel has yearly lunches with Vadderung. They might have talked about it.
I do not think Uriel’s boss is exactly the god of the bible. Uriel is all about free will and consequences. The whole jealous god thing is not really his mode of operation.
morriswalters:
Well if he's the God of the Bible in use by the Catholic Church then yes, he is. Obviously this is fiction, but if you are going to use the mythology then you get to carry the baggage that goes along with it.

One of my theories: There are four archangels- Raphael, Michael, Gabriel, Uriel.
Raphael, we are told, prefers working with his own hands. Amoracchius is rarely deployed. Raphael is responsible for the defenses on Michael Carpenter's house.
Sanya mentions meeting Michael- the archangel- and that he bestowed the Sword of Hope on him.
Murphy, wielding the sword of Faith, was used as a mouthpiece to pronounce doom upon the Lords of the Outer Night. Gabriel is the Trumpeter.
One of my out-there theories: These three swords each contain a nail. The Lance of Longinus, the Spear of Destiny, also pierced Christ. Therefore, it could also be considered a Sword, no? That would leave four swords to four archangels- and Uriel's Sword happens to have fallen to the man Uriel has been using as an agent. A bit darker than the others, but Uriel is the angel of God's vengeance. I rather like the symmetry of Butters the Knight of Faith, Sanya the Knight of Hope, Michael the Knight of Redeeming Love, and Harry the Knight of God's Retribution. Puts a very different spin on his being the one to mess up Cassius. The other Knights aren't allowed to do that kind of thing.
