By Cynthia S!. Mothers, sisters, daughters, How did we fall so far from our heavens!? Fallen from worship adoration, respect!. Why do we not know Isis, Inanna, Kali, Guan Yin!?

We were Gods from the beginning!. !.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Yes! Whatever happened to us!. We were worshipped and highly respected once upon a time!.
