it is not enough to limit your love to your own nation, to your own group. you must respond with love even to those outside of it. . . . this concept enables people to live together not as nations, but as the human race.

Why is it continually inferred that the age of the "pagan"
religions, the time of worship of female deities, was dark
and chaotic, mysterious and evil, without the light of
order and reason that supposedly accompanied the later male
religions, when it has been archaeologically confirmed
that the earliest law, government, medicine, agriculture,
metallurgy, wheeled vehicles, ceramics, textiles and
written language were initially developed in societies
that worshipped the Goddess?

~Merlin Stone, When God was a Woman
from another fascinating and interesting book about
men and women, myths and religion and the written word-
The Alphabet versus The Goddess
by Leonard Shlain.

great read.
