Well … Catholics are praying to saints, aren’t they? And those saints all used to be humans.

Also: Rachel was worshipping Frigg. And even though she taught Frigg to control her glowy hammershit, she also knew there was no chance she’d ever get as good at it as Frigg.
The nuns here may be as “talented” as Rachel (in terms of combat, not human interaction, where Rachel rules supreme), but they haven’t learned to control the Glowy Hammershit power any further than Frigg had when she met Rachel — so to them, learning this stuff should be pretty close to a divine gift, bestowed by their patron saint.

…all adds up to me.

But Rachel did attempt to worship Frigg.
Moreso than these ones, really.

But Then-Frigg was such an open sore, such a self-loathing mess, that Rachel just couldn’t pull it off.
She really tried, but in the end she just had to punch a bitch.
And that turned out to be pretty effective.

Now-Frigg is a much more well-balanced individual.
She’s learned to always punch up, and is promising to help them achieve their own potentials.

Not a bad deal.

I think there’s a difference between admiration and worship. People might use them as synonyms sometimes, but they’re not. I think it’s peculiar how those nuns seek to literally worship Frigg, unlike Rachel, who was more of a very enthusiastic fan. All those nuns can tap into the same power source (the self), and maybe each one of them can manifest that inner power differently, or at a different level, but they’re not that dissimilar from each other. I get that Frigg is a rock star to them. A living legend, even. At the end of the day, though, those women are (more or less) trained to do what Frigg does, albeit not with such impressive results, of course. Maybe a Steve Vai fan can’t really match his hero’s legendary guitar playing skill, but I would find it very odd to see this fan actually praying to Steve Vai.

I think focusing on power level misses the point. And I am quite certain Rachel would be more boggled than anyone by the equation of “as talented as Rachel” with “shouldn’t be awed by Frigg.”
