That sounds pretty orthodox to me; after all, Greg's stated both that
4/5th Age Glorantha is (at least somewhat) earth-like, and basically
(manifest) Godless; and that KoS is a pack of lies^H^H^H^Hsomewhat
possibly contradictory and less than 100% accurate material. You're
in the clear!

I have no idea! However, _Joerg_ -- ;-) -- 'oe' is alternative
orthography for \"{o}, if you speak LaTeX (o with two dots above)
-- is pronounced somewhere between "Yurg" and "Yirk", depending on
the speaker. Or at least, within that general range, he at any rate
suffers the utterer to live. ;-)

German is with the Conglomerated Union of Teutonic and Nordic Languages
on this one. Then you have the Allied Iberian Craft Federation
(somewhat like a gutteral 'ch', with plenty of phlegm in it), and for
once, English sits fairly tamely in the middle of the Generic and
Municipal Romance Languages and Affliated Tongues. Who did I miss?
Solidaritily,
Alex.
