I have not been this physically tired in a while.
Feels far better than mental fatigue.

@witchkingcoop I can understand that frustration lolll.

Edward's explanation of why he prefers the term "polytheist" just reminds me of why I adopted the term from him.
I'm still a bit uncomfortable telling people about it when they ask, but less so these days. There really is no better word that describes my religious commitments.

@Quididityorange ...Christians and Muslims have of their God (simple, not a delimited object, etc) is the description of any one of the many Gods. Not a transcendent unity of them all, but the unity of each irreducible ineffable God.

@Quididityorange I don't think "unity + difference merged" is very intelligible. That's just unity.

@Quididityorange For Platonic Polytheists like me, you don't need monotheism to have the absoluteness of divinity.
The Principle of Unity is concrete as each Unit, and is not a unity "above" them. Each Unit qua Unit is absolute.
