In this diary, we'll take a short visual trip through a number of world religions, including the five biggies -- except for Christianity, which was covered in a previous diary. Just one quick peek at the Bible again in Hawaiian Pidgin, and then forward into new territory, viewing things as always through the eyes of our furry friends.

The PWB diaries are a place to relax, share pictures and stories about our animal friends, LOL, and build community. If you like that, come on in and join us; if you don't like it, now's the time to click over to another diary. No crapping in the playground, please.
I would like to thank ICHC for the majority of these photos. Profound thanks to belinda ridgewood for repairing the HTML codes to make a much more attractive diary.

Mesoamerican Religions
Acat (pronounced AY-kat): To the Maya, Toltec, and Aztec peoples, Acat is the god of life. He gives form to all unborn things while they gestate in the mother's womb. He is very protective of children.
Cit Chac Coh (pronounced KIT-chak-koh) is the Mayan war god whose name translates as “Twin of the Red Lion.” In the Mayan part of the world, "lion" would have referred to a puma.
