Date: 2024-08-27 09:01 am (UTC)Thanks for your blog! To me, it seems that monotheism and polytheism are both human models. Models cannot be true, they can only approach truth.
If you pray to Jupiter, and he doesn't respond, perhaps being a leader isn't for you, or Jupiter is testing you to see if you really want to be a leader.
I don't think the gods are a catalogue of followers and we get to choose one of them to help us. I think the gods are in the lead, and we are the followers, and even our choice of whom to follow is limited by their acceptance.
