Guiding Goddess is my term for an important type of deity who existed in many if not most Neolithic societies (and on into some early Bronze-Age civilizations). As supreme creator (of people, the earth, life on earth, other deities and the universe), the Guiding Goddess was a role model for people:
Just as a healthy mother loves her children, so the Guiding Goddess loved humanity.
And as She loved people, people were to love each other.
I believe this simple yet profound blueprint for behavior was what allowed Guiding-Goddess societies to avoid war, violence, social inequality, and governments of domination.
