Thanos is an Eternal. They are not gods of any kind by the Marvel definition of the word. Do you even read comics?

There is no evidence that it cant penetrate Thanos's shields; the attack is spiritual in nature and Thanos has never demostrated (via shields or otherwise) any sort of defense against spiritual attack whatsoever...
Asking me to prove a negative. Niiiice. Poor debating style here buddy. You gotta first prove that it can penetrate shields of any kind. Stop making stuff up, you don't know what nature the ritual is and all you got is an ambiguous scan.

As for your asertion that Loki had to be weakened before he was vulnerable to this attack, where are you getting that info from? I'd like to see a scan of it as I have never seen anything to indicate what you say is true...and that certainly wasnt stated in the Thor comic where he used this ability.
Nice. So all you have is the scan where it happened? You didn't read the issue where this happened did you? Here, this should help you out:
Thor beat down Loki, as Loki was skulking away, he decided to use his soul suck attack. Loki neither attacked nor raised any shields nor protected himself in any way.

They've also been fighting several pages before that.

Just admit the truth...you made that shit up. Period. It has never been stated ANYWHERE that Thor has to weaken his opponents before he can use this ability on them. So again...you made that up!
The one time it happened, it worked on a beaten opponent who wasn't fighting back. You have to prove that it can work outside that scenario. Oh wait, YOU CAN'T! LOL.
Your emoticon skills are great, but your logic is weak!

Btw, had you read the actual story line, you would know that the attack DID destroy Loki, but in a later comic, a Loki from the past got the opportunity to see into the future...so he was able to prepare himself for the spiritual attack before it happened.
W/c means that with prep, one can avoid getting killed by the attack. Proves my point that the attack is avoidable.

And just FYI, Loki avoids destruction the 2nd time around by transfering his soul into a different body the instant before Soul Suck lands...thats how he managed to survive this attack ultimately; his soul vacated his body before the attack had a chance to kill him.
Yes, I have the issue, too. He transferred his essence to Odin. Thus, making the soul suck avoidable.

Also, again, read the comic...Thor didnt actually have to perform a ritual to use this ability...he summoned up the power, pointed Mjolnir at Loki, and fired...seconds later...dead Loki.
I HAVE the comic. By definition, rituals are complicated processes involving several actions. Heck, both of them were able to monologue long before the attack landed. Well, you may want to exaggerate the feat but it looks more like it took quite a few seconds before it even landed.
And to someone who can react to FTL attacks, seconds will seem like forever.

Not gonna happen, sport.
