    What role does chastity play in your religion?

    Being chaste within Hellenic polytheism isn't particularly virtuous as I understand it, but its something some people may choose because they find sex too emotional to their liking (similar to asexuality), or as a way of exerting total independence of oneself from the other gender. Like for...

    Why "one God"?

    That's your definition, but I see gods as beings with natures, and they have their own limitations within those natures. Anything that has a nature has limitations, and to be without a nature is to be nothing.

    Polytheistic Daily Reflections from me

    Because no one tree is the same, and the fact remains there are many diverse tree species. I pray to the Greek gods for things, according to their element, or what I guess is close to it. I also pray to Athena in general as my patron. I brought up the Zeus and Anu thing to acknowledge other...

    Yes and I already answered that.

    Which is the Best Country For Me to Live?

    Why "one God"?

    We really only call that highest a god as a relative term, as I said. Truly we cannot say anything about it. Anything we'd say would be to limit it. Zeus is the king of the Olympians, yes.

    What are you eating?

    I had a roast beef sandwich and curly fries from Arbys for brekkie

    Why "one God"?

    You can take this as you will, but the Hellenic philosophers have said there is a highest god that we can simply call the good, but we only call him good by our perception. Indeed we only call him a god by our perception. This good is free from anything we can say and by its nature remains a...

    Why "one God"?

    You don't see the circular logic in this? Besides all you're doing is simply insisting other gods must be false.

    Polytheistic Daily Reflections from me

    Coolio! A journal category. Please remember these reflections are only the musings of one polytheist out of a large group of communities and traditions. My first daily reflection is going to be about how polytheism coincides with what we observe in nature. In nature we observe a plethora of...

    Hello People :)

    Why "one God"?

    Yes in YOUR opinion because you certainly can't prove otherwise. How can your god be the one true god if there are no others to begin with?

    What does same-sex marriage have to do with religion?

    Yes and that social construct need not preclude same sex unions.

    Why "one God"?

    Wheras polytheism is perfectly consistent with the plurality present in nature. It also alligns with the observed fact that differing things are governed by differing powers and have their own nature.

    Why "one God"?

    Why do you believe Islam is the truth though when it contradicts clear simple arguments like the one I have so far put forth? I could bring other arguments, but there's no need to bring a house to crush an ant, and you've yet to show monotheism stands up against the simplest of arguments.

    Why "one God"?

    Simply because I know my gods and worship them. You still haven't explained how gods are exceptions to the general rule of plurality.

    Why would Paul never reference Gamaliel's teachings?

    Paul actually being a Pharisee or not is very relevant if one is trying to decide if he's a trustworthy source. If Paul wasn't a Pharisee what other lies did he tell?

    Why would Paul never reference Gamaliel's teachings?

    Okay and that still doesn't explain why Paul never references Gamaliel, or why his rhetoric isn't very Pharasaic. Paul wasn't above lying about being a Jew. He says in Corinthians he became as a Jew to win Jews.

    Why "one God"?

    There are many solar systems and many stars like our sun, which goes to establish my argument. Why do you think there's only one god?

    What does same-sex marriage have to do with religion?

    I'm not sure when it was determined that procreation is the purpose behind marriage. Why is procreation just for the sake of procreation good? If you had a horrible, inevitably terminal disease that was transmittable 100% of the time, would procreation be good then? Nature doesn't have any rhyme...
