[edit] Xochipili

References to homosexuality in the Xochipili article were removed due to lack of citations, so I have removed this name to the talk pages until citations can be provided. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.69.137.28 (talk) 03:03, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Expand to include historical religious same-sex practices?

Should this article be expanded to include historical religious same-sex practices? It certainly needs to be expanded beyond the Greek myths it now includes.Lasalle202 03:30, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

NO - clearly out of scope of article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.158.234.43 (talk) 01:38, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Serge & Bacchus

I added them because they were dramatized as martyrs in Christian mythology, and I trust nobody's going to accuse them of being real people and try to delete it, because many mythical figures are based on historical people, including Gilgamesh and Jonathan and David. And Serge & Bacchus' story involves mythical elements, such as one coming back from heaven to visit the other, etc.VatoFirme (talk) 03:10, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Seems ok by me. Haiduc (talk) 10:04, 28 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Japanese Deities

I added several Japanese deities, both of Buddhism and Shintoism. Please wait for a while on their sources. Hadrianvs et antinovs (talk) 13:18, 9 February 2008 (UTC)hadrianvs et antinovs

[edit] Greek mythologia

In "Greece" , I think that "Orpheus and Calais (one of Boreads)" is better than "Orpheus and the Thracians". At least in Japan, Calais is famous as a beloved-boy of Orpheus. Hadrianvs et antinovs (talk) 02:05, 10 February 2008 (UTC)hadrianvs et antinovs

One is good, two are better. Haiduc (talk) 13:13, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
