Creation Myths:

1) What is the Creation Myth that you believe in?

2) How did humans become into life?

3) How do gods come into play? Do Gods exist in your creation myth?

4) Did a God create everything or did multiple gods create everything together?

1) No idea haha! There are loads of creation myths. I suppose the one I am most likely to believe in will be the Big Bang Theory but that isn't a myth haha. Though a favourite myth of mine is when a Goddess (from the Eastern part of the world) made little people out of clay by hand. These people became the genius' and prodigys etc. She then stuck a stick in the mud and flicked it. All the drops that came off became the rest of the human population haha.

2) Evolution smile

3) Perhaps the Gods had something to do with it. I wouldn't be surprised but as to which Gods had what to do with it I do not know.

4) Hmm thats a really interesting question actually. All of the Gods make up existance so might there be an ultimate superGod who created all the other? OOO! I don't know haha. This is the kind of thing I try not to think too hard about coz it give me a headache. I don't even have a certain view of the afterlife lol!

1) What is the Creation Myth that you believe in?
Not sure what to call it to be honest. I do have a creation theory, but the details of the myths are a bit sketchy.
Maio-gi

2) How did humans become into life?
I believe in a mixture of creation and evolution.

3) How do gods come into play?
We are the creation of the God and Goddess, the children of Alshara.

Do Gods exist in your creation myth?
Yes.

4) Did a God create everything or did multiple gods create everything together?
Multiple beings worked together.

What is the Creation Myth that you believe in?
Hard to say. None, I guess. I don't really have any sort of opinion or belief regarding that.

How did humans become into life?
Another question hard to answer. Evolution? Perhaps. Created as we are? Perhaps. Combination of both? Perhaps. Personally I'd say the last one is closest to what I believe. That gods created us, but through evolution.

How do gods come into play? Do Gods exist in your creation myth?
I believe they had their part in it. Planning things, creating things...

Did a God create everything or did multiple gods create everything together?
Multiply gods. Though it also might be that only one or just a couple of gods did the whole creation thing, and the rest of them weren't involved in it at all. That end of the time line isn't too important to me, so I haven't really been thinking all this that much.

I suppose I believe in the big bang (if that counts?).
But my favorite one (that I'll probably bastardize since I haven't heard it in forever) is how the earth is on a turtle's back.

I heard a variation on that myth last semester when we were covering Native American religion in my History of World religions class. It was rather interesting. I kinda liked the myth I had...
