The tread title pretty much sums up what my question is


So if you have a one God opinion is he/she it most high among other spiritual beings

And if multiple gods is one the main boss?

I think that's what the word "God" is intended to mean these days, like a higher power or highest power maybe. What do you reckon Rick? :)

I can't speak for multiple gods.

I believe in a spiritual realm, a continuation of consciousnesses for us, maybe not necessarily what we knew here in the reality but a different life much more unconventional , and I think some beings have more power and authority, even control of individual energy's as if everything in some way emitted from the same presence or being.

I made a post in this thread, where has it gone? Lesley thanked me for it. I may have accidently deleted it.

It's okay, it seems I've either accidently somehow posted it in this thread;
sanctumzone.co.uk/forum/General/91263-is...-obesity.html#101000
Or it's been moved for some reason.

Somewhat deep, slightly hard to explain, and some traits of people around me have taught me some things about seers and shamanistic thought and Curendero type people, but many dreams and feelings about people, places, and things.

I like the chaos magick idea of having whatever deities you feel like having.

But I'm too lazy to get it together to actually do any rituals or anything. And can't decide which gods I like best and could relate to.

Having read a bit of mythology the most powerful (though at some point they were overthrown by their children) Deities would be the Feminine creator Deities :)

Depending on which pantheon you are referring to.

If you want to compare "power" in such an arbitrary way, you are probably better off consulting something as banal (and fun) as the Dungeons and Dragons collection printed in a few decades ago called Dieties and Demigods.

That will give you their Hit Points, Statistics and Armour Class. Plau their special (FX) powers :chuckle:
.
The historical/anthropoligcal reality is something quite different. For that I suggest the book The Golden Bough. Wittgenstein, the greatest philosopher of the modern age, according to a lot of scholarly peeps, referred to it often. And appernelty Wittgenstein was a God.

But more on him later. Or rather Him later. :hahano:

As for the OP question: monotheists don't believe in any other gods but their God.

Or you could ask Conan the Barabarian and he would tell you KROM!

Are you studying Wittgenstein's work on language or just name dropping?

Why do you think the Golden Bough is better than say Anacalypsis or Levi Strauss's work on Mythology?

I studied him and a few other folks (Derrida, Sausure, Halliday, Fischer Saussure etc) at uni 20 years ago.

You seem to think you are the only reader on the board. :gleek:
