Answer 1

Many old religions are polytheist but most of them are no longer followed. i.e the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans were polytheist but there religions have died out and the majority of religions now are monothesit. A lot of this can be blamed on the crusades and the indoctrination of other cultures into the Christian belief system. Put no faith into organised religion, it will poison your mind.

Answer 2

Most societies are/were polytheistic. When I was almost seven (my 6th Christmas), my parents gave me a book about the Roman and Greek pantheon. I loved that book, or, since I still have it, should I say, I love that book.

My favourite story was all about Pandora's Box. Pandora wasn't a goddess but the first mortal woman. I loved reading about Venus, Ceres, Bacchus, obviously Zeus and Hera and everything they got up to. Then there was Gaia, the Earth. Hades/Pluto in the underground with the river Styx between the land of the living and the underworld.

I always wanted to know what it was like to frolic in the Elysian Fields.

Apart from them, the Aztecs, Incas, Egyptians also had full pantheons. Actually, the Pharoah Ahkenaten was unusual in the fact that he did away with the pantheon of gods and brought in the worship of the Aten - the sun. However, when he died, he was succeeded by his son who brought back the pantheon and tried to erase all mention of his father and the Aten but he didn't do a good enough job of it because we know of him all these centuries on.

Answer 3

May I direct you in the direction of Hindu's, they have thousands of gods, all for different things, and some male some female. Or you could try ancient Roman or Greek religions, where they had a race of God's called the Titan's, they were the bosses, then there were hundreds of God's below them for everything, and sometimes they would mate with mortals creating Demi-Gods such as Hercules. It makes more sense than one.

Answer 4

In a race... there is a leader... and so with departments, there is always one person above anything else. And thats why there is One God. Regarding male and females, God is neither male nor female. According to the Bible, God made humans in His image and likeness, and so that means that females are made also from His image. We just use the masculine term for Him, because of the rules in Grammar.

Answer 5

That is what the Polytheists assert. The monotheists are convinced that The Supreme is above sex. And the important Message is that the Human creation , too , was from a thing not yet properly worded-- call it 'single cell'. From that a mate was created for her, and then there were men and women, tribes and nations. This is from the Holy Quran. In Hindu mythology also, there is the Narayan- god , a single cell person. Narayan cohabited with himself or herself and created another god named Brahma, who then created the humanity. Allah can create a human without sex, as mylord Jesus was born out of a female without any male intervention.

Answer 6

Uh, there are.

It's called polytheism.

I'm an Asatruar, I believe there are billions of Gods (every religions gods are very real)
I believe that after the earth was created and humans set forth, each pantheon of gods chose a country and the people they wanted to help to grow.
I worship the Norse Gods, I have a whole pantheon of Gods that are in charge of different things like what you named.

Answer 7

all forms have two sexes or opposites , This exists only in the manifested universe which is within the time frame. Here all the things have duality. God is out side the frame of time and there is no duality there that is why he is one all this manifested world and universe as well as the unmanifested part is inside god.

Answer 8

Well, in reality, most "One God" are actually not. For example, Christianity is a three in one God, Jesus, Father and Holy Spirit. Hinduism has a whole tier of gods, although there is one "supreme" whom the other gods serve. Even in Islam, Allah couldn't get far without Mohammad, who although he is not divine during his mortality, serves the same purpose as a demi-god.

Answer 9

i think that in view that we were married in a church, God replaced into present day there and Blessed our marriage then. he's continuously in my heart and soul in spite of i'm doing, strong or undesirable. it really is my believe in Him that keeps me moving into the route of more advantageous strong activities. And the older I develop into, the more advantageous in-track i think I develop into with God...and the more advantageous I study from others and God, the more advantageous I understand God and my sexual responsibilities and needs with my spouse and the way it really is all appropriate. Which comes finished circle proving to me that God is thoroughly on proper of problems with my life bodily, emotionally, and spiritually. God has performed a crucial area in my lovemaking/sexual life and that i call it devine intervention.....as I definitely have helped individuals with issues they have, they have helped me with issues i replaced into having, no longer bodily yet emotionally and spiritually, deep interior that i did not be conscious of the thanks to fix.

Answer 10

Most life forms do not have two sexes, just most of the larger life forms. Most life forms are asexual.
