Also known as \nHoly Mary of Guadalupe; Virgin of Guadalupe; Maria de Guadalupe \nMemorial \n12 December \nProfile \nGuadalupe is, strictly speaking, the name of a picture, but the name was extended to the church containing the picture and to the town that grew up around the church. It makes the shrine, it occasions the devotion, it illustrates Our Lady. It is taken as representing the Immaculate Conception, being the lone figure of the woman with the sun, moon, and star accompaniments of the great apocalyptic sign with a supporting angel under the crescent. The word is Spanish Arabic, but in Mexico it may represent certain Aztec sounds. \n\nIts tradition is long-standing and constant, and in sources both oral and written, Indian and Spanish, the account is unwavering. The Blessed Virgin appeared on Saturday 9 December 1531 to a 55 year old neophyte named Juan Diego, who was hurrying down Tepeyac hill to hear Mass in Mexico City. She sent him to Bishop Zumárraga to have a temple built where she stood. She was at the same place that evening and Sunday evening to get the bishop's answer. The bishop did not immediately believed the messenger, had him cross-examined and watched, and he finally told him to ask the lady who said she was the mother of the true God for a sign. The neophyte agreed readily to ask for sign desired, and the bishop released him. \n\nJuan was occupied all Monday with Bernardino, an uncle, who was dying of fever. Indian medicine had failed, and Bernardino seemed at death's door. At daybreak on Tuesday 12 December 1531, Juan ran to nearby Saint James's convent for a priest. To avoid the apparition and the untimely message to the bishop, he slipped round where the well chapel now stands. But the Blessed Virgin crossed down to meet him and said, "What road is this thou takest son?" A tender dialogue ensued. She reassured Juan about his uncle, to whom she also briefly appeared and instantly cured. Calling herself Holy Mary of Guadalupe she told Juan to return to the bishop. He asked the sign for the sign he required. Mary told him to go to the rocks and gather roses. Juan knew it was neither the time nor the place for roses, but he went and found them. Gathering many into the lap of his tilma, a long cloak or wrapper used by Mexican Indians, he came back. The Holy Mother rearranged the roses, and told him to keep them untouched and unseen until he reached the bishop. When he met with Zumárraga, Juan offered the sign to the bishop. As he unfolded his cloak the roses, fresh and wet with dew, fell out. Juan was startled to see the bishop and his attendants kneeling before him. The life size figure of the Virgin Mother, just as Juan had described her, was glowing on the tilma. The picture was venerated, guarded in the bishop's chapel, and soon after carried in procession to the preliminary shrine. \n\nThe coarsely woven material of the tilme which bears the picture is as thin and open as poor sacking. It is made of vegetable fibre, probably maguey. It consists of two strips, about seventy inches long by eighteen wide, held together by weak stitching. The seam is visible up the middle of the figure, turning aside from the face. Painters have not understood the laying on of the colours. They have deposed that the "canvas" was not only unfit but unprepared, and they have marvelled at apparent oil, water, distemper, etc. colouring in the same figure. They are left in equal admiration by the flower-like tints and the abundant gold. They and other artists find the proportions perfect for a maiden of fifteen. The figure and the attitude are of one advancing. There is flight and rest in the eager supporting angel. The chief colours are deep gold in the rays and stars, blue green in the mantle, and rose in the flowered tunic. \n\nSworn evidence was given at various commissions of inquiry corroborating the traditional account of the miraculous origin and influence of the picture.

Hi,\n\nBeing a Mexican, I'm not sure I can find the right words in English, but I hope this helps. I sympathize with you because I too have tried to find answers about other Christian denominations. I think Maybe you are putting too much restrictions on the answer. You should think as a Catholic. For instance, you should remember that we the Catholics believe (nuestra doctrina) not only in the Bible, but also in tradition(tradición) and the teaching from the Church (magisterio de la Iglesia). That means not everything we believe is in the bible (Jn 21:25).\n\nThe simple answer is that we believe that the church includes both the "pilgrim Church" (Iglesia peregrina) which is all of us that are on the earth and the "Triumphant Church" (Iglesia triunfante) which is all members who are already in the presence of God. That includes all the saints, and also people you've loved and hope that are in heaven now. So I can talk to God trough Virgin Mary, or San Antonio just as I can ask my mother, or you, to pray for me. (I would thank you for that, by the way) Anyway, if you can find someone asking someone else to pray for him/her on the Bible, you've got your answer.\n\nI think if you want more information on the subject and have a spirit of good will, you should talk to a Catholic Priest, tell him you are just doing some research, and plainly ask him.\n\nQue el Señor te acompañe y te bendiga.

The Coat of Arms of Mexico has been an important symbol of Mexican politics and culture for centuries. The current coat of arms has changed little since the Aztecs first developed it almost seven hundred years ago. \n\nThe coat of arms depicts a Mexican golden eagle, perched upon a cactus, devouring a snake. To the Aztecs this would have strong religious connotations, but to the Europeans, it would come to symbolize the triumph of good over evil.\n\nYou can get all details and the picture at :--

What sort of god is this who curses and punishes animals? The proper solution to the problem is that it's mythology.

"God" A term designed by humanity to describe a postulated preternatural being usually complete with special divine powers.\n\nYou asked Who is the God? And you mentioned a few names, Jesus, Allah, Buddha and Mahadeva. (one of the faces of Shiva) Well, let's look at them.\n\nJesus is the proposed son of man. God the father, (Yahweh or Allah) made flesh and sent to Earth to free man from sin. The source of the teachings of Jesus and what he believed is exclusively found within the documents known as the gospels. If you are a Christian, then Jesus is your god, as is his father (Yahweh) and the holly spirit. \n\nAllah, or 'god' is the proposed being that created the world. This is the same god of Hebrew torah and the Christian old testament. If you are a Muslim, then this is your god. Then again, technically, if you are a Christian or Jew, this is still your god sicne the same name can be found is all three faiths. \n\n"Mahadeva" or more accurately Shiva, is "the Pure One" or the "One who purifies everyone by the utterance of His name." And is one of the primary gods of the Hinduism and the head god of the Śaivism, a branch of Hinduism. If you subscribe to the Hindu faith, then Shiva is your god.\n\nBuddha, the enlightened one, was once stopped on the road and asked by a man, "Sir, are you a god." The mans asked the Buddha when he saw how peaceful he appeared.  "No." Said the Buddha.  "Are you a demigod then?" asked the man. "No." replied Buddha.  "Then are you great man?" asked the passerby. "No." replied the Buddha again. "Then what are you sir." The man final asked. "I am the one who is awake." Replied Buddha as we went on his way.  Buddha is not a god. He is not thought of as a god and he did not think of himself as a god. Buddha was a man that sought and found the truth and was awakened form the dream of life & death. He was a great teacher, but he was not a god, a profit or a savior, for according to Buddhism, no one can be saved by anyone except themselves. \n\nSo, who is god?  That's not something anyone can tell you. You need to look and find out for yourself. Who do I think god is? I don't. I think god is a man made myth used to scare people into doing what churches want them too.  This is why the history of god based religions is so bloody. Still, if the belief in a god helps a person feel better, then perhaps it is not a total waste. \n\nI hope this helps.

The Aztecs had a mega pantheon of gods and practiced human sacrifice to appease more than a few of them. \n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztec_mythology

My two favorites are Coatlicue and Tlaloc.  There is a huge sculpture of Coatlicue in the Museo Nacional de Antropologia in Mexico City.  Her face is made from 2 rattlesnakes facing each other so it looks like just one face.  Her necklace is sculpted to look like alternating human hands and hearts, with a human skull hanging down at the end!  Not only is she great and scarey looking, but her history is cool as well (she is the mother of Huitzilopochtli, the "Aztec" god of war, as well as his sister Coyolxauhqui).  I would DEFINITLY pick her if I had to do a project on one.\n\nTlaloc the rain god might be my second choice.  You can usually spot him because he has rings around his eyes that look like "googles".  Children were sacrificed in his honor.  The "Aztecs" believed that the more the kids cried on their way up the pyramid to be sacrificed, the more abundant the rain would be!\n\nTry looking up those two names here on Yahoo!  There should be lots of neat sites about them.

Zeus\n \nSupreme Greek god and head of the Greek pantheon. In addition Zeus functioned as a sky god or weather god, and as a god of justice and freedom. Son of the Titans Kronos and Rhea. Consort of Hera. His cult probably dates back to the Mycenean and Minoan civilizations. According to Homer, he lived on Mt. Olympus in Thessaly, where he gathered the other gods under his dominion.After his birth, Rhea saved the infant Zeus from being swallowed by Kronos along with his siblings by substituting a stone dressed in swaddling cloths. She then hid the child in a cave on the island of Crete, where the Kouretes performed a dance in which they clashed their weapons about him in order to drown out his cries. His nurse while in Crete was Amalthea, either a nymph or a goat. Upon reaching maturity, Zeus overthrew the Titans and forced Kronos to disgorge his siblings. Zeus then cast Kronos into Tartaros and established himself as head of a new pantheon in which he and his siblings had the most prominent roles. He divided dominion over the world with his brothers Poseidon and Hades.Zeus's sexual prowess was legendary, and he either seduced or forced himself upon numerous goddesses, nymphs, and mortal women,fathering countless children in the process. He assumed many different forms in pursuit of his numerous affairs. He appeared to Leda in the form of a swan, to Danae as a shower of gold, and to Europa as a white bull. Ares, Eleithyia and Hephaistos were the most prominent of his children by his official consort Hera, whom he originally seduced in the form of a cuckoo (although some sources say that it was Hera who seduced Zeus). He fathered Apollo and Artemis by Leto, Persephone by Demeter, Hermes by Maia,Dionysos by Semele, the Horai and Moirai by Themis, the Muses by Mnemosyne, and Herakles by Alkmene. Athena was also said to have been born from his forehead after he had swallowed Metis. Zeus may also have had a homosexual relationship with Ganymede, whom he made the cupbearer of the gods. The cult of Zeus was of universal significance in the Greek world, although his cult was often secondary in individual locations to the local tutelary deity, such as Athena in Athens. Greek households typically had statues of Zeus in their forecourts,and he was often associated with mountaintop shrines. He had temples in every Greek city, two of the more notable being iAthens and at Olympia. His most important festival was at Olympia. The oracle at Dodona in Epirus was dedicated to Zeus. He was depicted as a bearded and physically imposing man of middle age. His most common attributes were the thunderbolt and the eagle.\nAnd finally because so many asked, here is what we think is a complete list of the women he seduced or rape as required to satisfy his lust. Remember there were some men too, but why put them in a list of women? \n\nZephyros\n \nGreek god of the west wind. Son of Astraios and Eos. Believed to live in a cave in Thrace. Known to the Romans as Favonius. \n\nTyche\n\nGreek goddess of fate and fortune. According to Hesiod, she was the daughter of Okeanos and Tethys. In Pindar, Zeus is given as her father. She was often associated with Agathos Daimon, the "Good Spirit", and with Nemesis, the goddess of justice and vengeance. Tyche was depicted with a rudder or a cornucopia, and often with a wheel as a symbol of the transitory nature of fortune and of the fickle character of the goddess herself. She had a temple at Argos, where the first set of dice were said to have been invented. Her temple at Antioch remained intact at least until the reign of the Roman Emperor Theodosius (AD 379-95). \n\nTriton \n\nMinor Greek sea god. He was depicted as a merman, with the upper body of a man and the tail of a dolphin or a fish. Son of Poseidon and Amphitrite. According to Hesiod, he lived with his parents in a golden palace at the bottom of the sea. The Greeks often thought of there being many Tritons rather than just one. His attribute wa

first, the Virgin of Guadalupe is not a cult. the virgin's appearance in mexico provides a way for people to venerate her as the mother of God.\nnow, for the popularity question. the virgin appeared around the 16th century, when the aztec rule in mexico was taken over by the spanish. the traditional aztec religion dictated that people had to be sacrificed to appease all their various gods, such as quetzalcuatl [sp] or their 'mother god' who had similarities to medusa. the peasant people obviously feared the gods and their religion, as it meant that perhaps someday they could become victims to the daily massacres that occured in the temples. when the virgin appeared to one of the peasants, the indians saw how she was a pregnant native girl, evidently royalty because of her clothing. they saw how she was standing in front of the sun and on top of the moon, which indicated that she was more powerful than even the sun or moon gods. she had on a black belt that indicated pregnancy, so her child [god] was also more powerful than the sun or the moon. they saw the various miracles associated with the image, and her message to deliver them. they saw her and her religion as more powerful and even better than theirs, seeing her as a mother instead of a god thirsting for their blood. They dedicated themselves to her and embraced the catholic faith, by the millions. the tradition of veneration to her and her son was passed on for centuries and continues today.
