You have to convert to Islam and THEN start sacrificing cats to Odin or it won't work.

A friend of mine worships one of the chaos gods in Warhammer (don't ask me which one, I haven't played since I was a teenager).

Please tell me he "worships" it. Some of these nerds take things a little far. Please don't name all your children Tyrion and Daenerys.
