Ok, here goes (I'll try to make it as short and easily understandable as possible).
Gentoo explained that she is Polytheistic, while Guitar's Cry is Monotheistic, yet they are both Pagan. I however, cannot be described as either (yeah, it tends to be a little confusing
). My religion, Kemetic Reconstructionism is neither Polytheistic or Monotheistic. It is instead, more of a Polytheistic Monolatry.
Kemetics believe that ALL Gods and Goddesses are one. We call this power Netjer. Netjer is the ONE. THE God with many forms (seperate deities, all lesser Gods, who each rule over their own seperate thing).
When Netjer was "created" (I use the term loosely as there isn't much on how It came into being.. It, I suppose, just always was), It was worshipped by all, but soon came to realize that not everyone felt connected with It. It, however, loved everyone and wanted everyone to love It, so in order to connect with each of It's worshippers and to have them connect with It and feel personally close to It, It "divided" itself into many different forms (lesser deities) and gave each seperate form ruling over something specific.
Each God and Goddess is an intrinsic Whole. A Netjer in itself, but all together, make up the supreme Netjer. If you were to imagine Netjer as a jewel, each God and Goddess would be a seperate facet of this jewel.
Each of these facets has a personality, a way of doing things, and certain areas of human activity in which It takes an interest. All of the Names together make up the Whole of Netjer.
Am I losing you yet? If I am, sorry, I'm almost done, promise.
Now, as for ME, personally, though I'm Kemetic, I'm also Pagan (where as the ancient Kemetics weren't). I worship each "facet" as a whole and seperate deity.
In MY beliefs, there is an ascending status of the Gods and Goddesses I worship.
For example, as a Pagan, I have one main Goddess and one main God that I woship. Mine are Isis and Osiris, and all the other Gods and Goddesses are lesser in status (though not in value) to me.
The Ancient religion of Kemeticism was a Monolatry. My Pagan side feels more intune with Polytheism. For this reason, I consider my path a Polytheistic Monolatry
Does that make sense to you?
