Yesterday, anti-thesisofreason asked, "So do you think we should get rid of all male deities? Are there any that would be worth keeping?"
Personally, anti, I believe there are tons of male gods worth keeping. Last winter, we had quite a party on this blog about male gods, with lots of people chiming in on the topic. [See "Goddess and the Good Gods" from last March]
And after reading Sannion's Written in Wine: A Devotional Anthology for Dionysos, I've fallen in love with this old Greek "counterculture god." [Go HERE to see reviews of Written in Wine on Amazon.com]

Thnx to Clair-de-lune for the foto of Dionysus; go HERE to see more.
I think we need to get rid of the unhealthy father god archetype and bring in a rich, healthy, compasionate, loving Father God archetype that will do what a Father is supposed to do, provide, protect, and nurture his children.
