This weblog is dedicated to THE GODDESS and to SAVING THE PLANET -- by gently replacing God the Father with God the Mother by the year 2025. Too simplistic? Nope, I don't think so. Male gods are dangerous, to men as well as women. Female deities are ROLE MODELS for UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. People are biologically programmed to need religion of one kind or another. (BTW, "thea"=Goddess, "theo"=god)
Okay...so...one of those things I struggle with sometimes is repect for other folks' beliefs, religions etc. Where do I draw a line between what I find acceptable and what I don't? I want other people to respect my beliefs, or at least my right to have them, so I should respect theirs. I don't really have a "line" per say...it's more like different case by case issues, with certain trends.
This is one of those that's well on the other side of the line.
Male gods are dangerous, female deities are role models for unconditional love. Totally blanket statements there. In this entry, I commented mentioning war goddesses...and suddenly we have an exception. War goddesses are the evil spawn of war gods. And of course, it seems that all gods are war gods. All goddesses before 3000 BC were "Great Mother Goddesses", those afterwards are just "wimpy war-god makeovers" (http://godmotherascending.blogspot.com/2007/01/goddess-worshippers-whistling-in-dark.html)
So she's "peacefully" protesting churches. Not, it seems, because those churches have done anything wrong in particular...but for their mere existence:
We need to march outside all War-God churches, colleges, seminaries and other institutions. What would our signs say? “Mothers, Protect Your Babies from War Gods.” “Jehovah Admits he’s a Warrior: Exod. 15:3.” “To Stop War, Stop War Gods.” “Christianity’s a Cult, Not a Religion.” “Christians Kill.” “Protect Yourself from Christianity.” “Abolish War Gods, Abolish War.” “The Bible Contains ’Warrior’ and ‘War’ 300 Times.” Similarly for Vishnu’s and Yahweh’s temples and Allah's mosques
*sigh*
Well, I've got some news for you...come 2025, I'll still be worshipping both goddesses and gods.
Wonder what she does when Christians try to proselytize to her?
Being a pagan, I get lumped in with folks like this from time to time *sigh*
I think my brain hurts.
