the_siobhanSoooo... if I were to tie some fluff-bunny-who-gives-paganism-a-bad-name to an oak tree using their own intestines, do you think I'd be able to beat the rap on religious grounds?

To me, that sounds like a death sacred to Odin, because I associate Odin with oak trees, although I've got a vague tickle in the back of my brain that there is a Celtic precident for this, as well.
But assuming that it IS a death sacred to Odin, I see some problems. The first is that the blood-eagle is more appropriate.
And the second is that Tyr is more relevant to actual codes of law. Odin is more about, y'know, being ABOVE the law. Loki is about ignoring the law, Tyr is about following the law, and Odin is about knowing the law but doing what you feel is necessary whatever its legality.
So I'd suspect that, no, you wouldn't beat the rap on religious grounds, but that there is a chance that you nonetheless ought to do it, and suck up the consequences.
