In the Hindu Pantheon, for every "male" essence there is a "female" essence.

The Greeks kind of screwed that system up and began matching some of the "male" essences against totems rather than "females", while they distorted many of the "females" into lesser "male" identities, or maybe even titans.

As far as Ba'al worship goes, there's still a lot of that going on, but he's a Semitic "god". I think you'd be better served referring to him as Saturn.

So the Roman "god" Saturn is a spinoff of Baal? I did not know that.
