Polytheism
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
Polytheism is belief in or worship of multiple gods or deities. The word comes from the Greek words poly theoi, meaning "many gods." In polytheistic belief, gods are perceived as complex beings of greater or lesser status, with individual skills, needs, desires and histories. These gods are not seen as being omnipotent, but rather human-like, having specific skills and abilities.
