This weblog is dedicated to the Goddess and to saving the planet -- by gently replacing God the Father with God the Mother by the year 2035. Too simplistic? Nope, I don't think so. Female deities are role models for unconditional love. Violent sky/war gods are dangerous, to men as well as women. People are biologically programmed to need religion of one kind or another. (BTW, "thea"=Goddess, "theo"=god)

I DON’T Understand A WORD YOU SAY
Yesterday, a lovely reader wrote: “I don't understand a word [on] your site. Please make it clearer so that we who are merely visiting can understand.”
Athana, thinking hard to herself: “Hmmm [chewing pencil eraser]. How to make things clearer. Hm. [more chewing of pencil eraser; then, finally:]
“Haw-kay! [lightbulb going off] Here it is in a NUTSHELL”:
“Six thousand years ago, everyone worshiped Goddesses and things were good. Then gods came. Things got bad. They have stayed bad for 6000 years.
"What do you think? Should we keep the ghastly gods? Or call back the Good Goddesses?”

He might stumble on the word "ghastly."
ReplyDeleteNot if he looks in a dictionnary ;)

How about "gobliny gods"? Or maybe I should put a hyphen between "goblin" and "y" to make it clearer -- "Goblin-y gods."
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me that if you don't understand something you try to educate yourself. You don't ask someone to do your work for you.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind explaining things to people - that's why we write blogs. You have to remember that for people who've never thought outside the patriarchal box, we're speaking a foreign language. They don't know humans used to live in peace, or that the Earth is our Mother, or that greed is a mental disorder and not an inevitability. It's a bitch finding out everything you've ever been taught is a lie.
