Abstract

It is not enough to announce that panentheism is the best way for talking about ATRs by looking at some of the features that were considered in the last chapter. The focus of the present chapter is to express how these features may be located in the religious practices of at least five other religious cultures aside the Yorùbá, the paradigm of the preceding chapter. Hence, in this chapter, I focus on the natures of God among the ancient Egyptians (Ra-Atum), Fon and Anlo-Ewe (Mawu-Lisa), Akan (Onyame), Shona (Mwari), and the Igbo (Chukwu) as fulcrums for my conviction that when any attempt is made to discuss the nature of God, panentheism serves the best concept.
