DNA Test Results Back! - TilersForums.com

[Dan]

Okay so I've been doing a family tree. Managed to trace one line of family back to 1535. Mostly always been in England or Wales by the looks of it. So I was getting a bit sentimentally patriotic about being British born and bred.

Thought I'd do a DNA test thing to see what my geographical makeup is.

And I'm only freaking 7% British!!! - Literally the little bit that makes me like tea and drinking from china cups.

I'm 39% Scandinavian, 30% Irish, 12% West European (so French or German), and 1% Iranian or Iraqi (maybe Turkish).

Holy mother of god. Top o tha mornin' to ya.

Explains the guinness.

Haha so one of your distant relatives is responsible for invading this country then!
So you're a Viking!
Dan's a pretty good Viking name isn't it?

 

[Dan]

Daan is a viking name, that means The Lord Is My Judge.

 

[Dan]

97% European though. That's close enough to home for me.

What's that monologue from Pulp Fiction where Samuel L Jackson recites that prayer before shooting those guys?
Something about the Lord being his judge/keeper?
Isn't it a passage by Ezekiel 25:17.
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you."
U better be careful then
