He's mentioned, but I think the majority of the religious lyrics are more about being in opposition to Christianity. I'm sure I don't need to lecture a Norwegian on how Christianity suppressed the older Norwegian culture and that's really what Quorthon is on about, especially with all the Viking talk. It's about old Norwegian nationalism more than Satanism. I think that's really the undercurrent for Amon Amarth's lyrics for that matter.
