Here's question 17.
How do you feel about this subject?

For most people, the word "God" feels holy, while the word "Goddess" feels mythical. What are your thoughts on this? Do you imagine those perceptions will ever change?

If most Western people find the word God holy and the word Goddess mythical--it is because we are trained that way from childhood, as most Western religions do not recognize the Goddess. In many eastern cultures the Goddess is still honored. Shireen help me out here.
