The Sacred and the Profane Group 1!

Introduction:
116-118
"in this chapter, we shall try to understand how the world presents itself to religious man..." (117)
God is revealed through creation because we know God created the world, making it have structure and sacrality, not chaos.

The Celestial Sacred and the Urainan gods:
118-121
Many other religions have "sky" gods, which points us upwards. The sky is limitless to the naked eye of humanity. The sky god is generally the one attributed to creating the cosmos. This is because meteorological phenomena show power and might (lightning, thunder, rain, tornadoes, etc.) that are, by nature connecting us to the idea of a heavenly being in the sky.

The Remote God:
121-125
The sky beings mentioned above always seem to be too far out of reach, unless provoked. The god realizes this and leaves behind a lesser god that cares for the followers. This demi-god has a motherly feeling of caring for the humans while the sky god sits apart from them only as something to fear, not someone who is compassionate towards them. People only call out to the sky god only in times of calamity, when all other options have failed.

In the next section, the bloggers will write about the remoteness of the sky god and how it increases interest in the motherly being over the creator god.
