“As anybody who knows anything about the Unknowable well knows, ‘God’
and ‘gods’ are interchangeable. The exclusivistic patriarchal
Jehovah/Allah freaks are not incorrect then whey insist that there is
but one Supreme Being and that ‘he’ is immutable and absolute. However,
neither are the wide-eyed inclusive pagans and primitives wrong when
they recognize gods of fire alongside gods of rivers; honor a moon
goddess, a crocodile spirit, and deities who reside in, among countless
other places, tree trunks, rain clouds, peyote buttons, and neon
lighting (especially the flashing whites and the greens).”
