Pagan Blog Project: F is for Favorite

"Which is your favorite god?"

I am pretty tolerant of questions from folks who are not pagan or not polytheistic, but that one always stumps me.

There are gods I am closer to than others, yes.

There are gods I relate to more easily than others, yes.

There are gods I am more comfortable with than others, yes.

But a favorite? That's like asking me which is my favorite child--I really, truly, genuinely do not have one. The very concept makes no sense. Which is my favorite thing, air or water? Food or sleep? The sea or the sky?

No favorites here.
