What's the Difference? I Can't See One....

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?...Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; ...
2 Corinthians 6:16,17

What's the difference between a Catholic "Saint" and a Pagan god/goddess? I can't tell... Below is a description of one and the characteristics and things attributed are no different than Catholicism claims about "Saints"....Now you know where they got the idea of "Saints", and their attributes from---from the blending of Pagans and Christians....
"Frigg or Frigga (which means ‘Beloved’ in Old Norse) is a goddess found in Norse mythology. As the wife of Odin and the mother of Baldur, she is the ‘Queen of the Æsir’.
This deity was worshipped as a sky goddess and
---is believed to be responsible for weaving the clouds. Additionally, the Norse believed that
---she had the power of prophecy and
---was in charge of weaving the fates. Love and marriage were also in the domain of this goddess .
As an interesting side, the English weekday name ‘Friday’ is etymologically derived from the name of this goddess.
---The goddess is often called upon by her devotees for aid in the
domestic arts and cottage industries, in particular the spinning of wool.
She was also known as the ‘Lady of the Hall’, whose duty it was to carry the mead horn around feasts that were thrown to send off or welcome back warriors. This association with feasting has also allowed her to be
---perceived as a patroness of diplomacy, and she was called upon by leaders in such matters."
