Polytheism

Polytheism is the belief in multiple gods, each with distinct roles, attributes, and powers. Unlike monotheism, which centers on one supreme deity, polytheistic traditions often view the divine as a pantheon of gods and goddesses who govern different aspects of life, nature, and human experience. This belief system allows for a rich tapestry of myths and rituals, reflecting diverse cultural values. Polytheists may engage with various deities for guidance, protection, and blessings, seeing them as interconnected forces that together shape the world and human destiny.
