This blog is meant to show my thoughts on certain beings throughout various religions, with brief explanations of said beings. This will not be me judging these religions as a whole but just some of the major players within them, nor will I be focusing on how the religions are/were practiced. I hope to get a greater understanding of these religious figures as I have always found theology interesting.
PELE Pele is the Hawaiian goddess of Volcanoes and Flame. She controls the volcanoes of Hawaii and the fires they produce. Pele is also known as the spirit that shapes the sacred land. Since she controls the volcanoes she is considered one of the most vital deities in Polynesia. If Pele never existed then the volcanoes would never have existed nor, in turn, would the islands of Hawaii of formed. She is not a purely benevolent goddess. She seeks to protect those who inhabit her land and protects them from all foreign forces that endanger them. To Hawaiians she is the reason why they have land to live on, beautiful nature, and safety from the volcanoes. Pele in control of volcano
