What does polytheism mean

1 answer

Polytheism is a belief system that encompasses the worship or belief in multiple deities or gods. It is in contrast to monotheism, which believes in the existence of a single deity. Polytheistic religions often involve the worship of various gods and goddesses that represent different aspects of life, nature, or specific realms such as love, war, wisdom, fertility, and so on. Examples of polytheistic religions include ancient Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Norse religions.
