[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7962280, member: 6670153"] Since this is evovling towards a theological discussion I will point out that Polytheology is a very diverse field. You have Hard Polythiests, you have Soft Polythiests, and everything in between. You have Henadic Platonist Theology/Philosophy, Post Modern Polytheology, you have literalist Polyheology, you have Archetype Polytheology, Modal Realist Polytheology, and then you have some types of really out their theologies. As to why the Gods want morals to worship them, the anwsers vary incredibly between religions and Polytheologies. Some ancient religions believe the Gods created humanity to cloth and feed the Gods, who no longer wanted to work for themselves. This belief later lead to UFO conspiracies based upon it. Others believed the Gods don't require worship at all and that it's arrogant to pray for things, one prays to show gratitude, the Gods can't be ordered around. Others believe the Gods are extremely powerful Thoughtforms called Ergores, created by the beliefs and worship of thousands to millions of people. This is an example of Theros' Theology. Others believe the Gods are omnipotent, omnibelevolent, whole, and perfect. The Goal isn't to worship the Gods for material gain, its Theurgy, the goal is to work together with the Gods so you can assend towards them, at least for a time. Others believe that the Gods that made the material world are evil or ignorant and that there are God/s called Aeons belong the material world, and that you want to ascend to the very top so you can reunite your divine sparl with the highest God. Others don't worship Gods with an expectation that they are perfect, but rather like honouring ones ancestors its about showing due respect. Others worship a God believing that they too in the afterlife can become a God of another world. Others worship Gods that used to be mortals, but who were reborn as Gods at the very top of the multiverse, but who don't have anything to do with this universe, they worship them as role models as they wish to achieve this state for themselves. And there is more. [/QUOTE]
