Over time there have been many religions and they are always changing. Each region of the world has a different set of beliefs. Our sun is a big part of the reason for some of these beliefs. Some have a sun god and some of them use a sun goddess.

No matter which they chose to have, at its core it was the same belief. The sun warms us with its heat. It provides light so that we can see in the darkness. Its rays help plant life flourish on the Earth thus providing sustenance for all who inhabit it. It is the reason we are alive.

Most who hold the sun as a god or goddess believe that they should be thankful to what provides life to us all. The sun keeps us alive and the earth cradles us. They either worship the sun itself or create an entity to represent the sun.

Some people use the sun as a fertility god. The is held responsible for birth and replenishing life on the Earth. Couples sometime pray to fertility gods or a sun goddess and even have one in the room when they are trying to conceive a baby.

A sun god or sun goddess may have been thought to have ridden in chariots in the sky. Other people thought that they may have worked with perhaps another sun god or sun goddess to actually moved the sun through orbit.

Many forms have been given to both the sun god and sun goddess. Owls and lions are among those. They have been depicted as humans and even giants.

The sun god and the sun goddess have been known under many names. In Greece the sun god was called Apollo. It was thought that he flew threw the sky in a chariot. The Greeks thought that he was responsible for the sun moving around the earth.

Freyr was the name of the Norse sun god. They also had a sun goddess. Her name was Sol. Freyr was believed to have ridden on a boar. They said he used a ship to sail on the waters and when he wasn't on the water with it, that he would fold it up and put it inside of his pocket. Sol, the sun goddess was thought to ride in a chariot like the Greek God Apollo.

There has always been skepticism when it has come to any sort of religion. There are some people who are skeptic of Christianity. Even though it is so wide spread, some people believe it to just be made up fairy-tales. They do not believe in some of the miracles that Jesus was said to have done.

Whether you believe in a sun god or sun goddess or the Son of God is your choice. It is your right to make that choice. No one will ever know for sure which are right or wrong. These things began when man needed an answer for why he was on this planet and why there was a sun and a sky. Always do what feels right to you. If you choose to worship a sun god or a sun goddess is up to you.
