[QUOTE="Sidran, post: 274881, member: 6160"] It has to do with the seperation of the Father (God) the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Ghost. As for monotheisim. I have dabbled with it in various undertakings but it is very hard to pull of convincingly. As with in real life the Eygptians believed breifly in one divine power ( most likely around the time the bible says that Joseph was sold into slavery) But when they reverted back to polytheisim it was a violent reversion. Their is evidence of defacing the Pharoh whose brilliant Idea it was, and Chipping out his name from Hyroglyphs. The God that was targeted as the one god was tarnished for a while and then was absorbed by another god. In my humble opinion I think the bible tells us that there are other Gods. For God is a Jealous god, of what, or who? And we cant say that God is the only god because of Satan, the Great Dragon. the Leviathan at some point in the past did the serpents greatest species exist as Gods? Genesis says that they were made to slither does that imply feet? Anyway those are creative arguments that got my brain going on more than one occasion. The simple fact is that Monotheisim, and Polytheisim can and do exist together in the sphere of our world why not on a fantasy one. A friend set up Pelor as the one true god of his world, with Wee-Jas playing the scholarly satan, and a Fanatical Paladin Pelors chosen son. Gods are the third to last thing I put in my world. after carefully examining real world religions similar to what I want to see. [/QUOTE]
