Just a side note here....interesting how many religious movements and cults have a “female” deity or idol within their faith....and is often times central to who they pay homage to. From New Agers to some of the larger false religions there is a female entity...Hinduism and many eastern religions have a female entities.....Interesting as much it is only ISlam who pays little if any homage to any woman.

I tend to think that the “she” side of these religions and cults will be central to a common ground of uniting faiths to some degree. I say so because the great deception will be powerful on the minds and hearts of people for having refused Christ....the masses will be easily led as history shows.

Actually the homage to 'woman' comes in the form of the crescent, moon, and star. If one looks at images of Isis or Ishtar, upon her head one observes the crescent and moon/star...or even an empty thrown.

Do a minimal search on the internet and one will come across dozens of sites that illustrate the linkage between Isis, Ishtar, and the Islamic Crescent and star. I am providing a link to another forum to give you a better idea of how Islam and a 'female goddess' are indeed linked.

Is ISLAM based on PAGAN roots?

I would submit that the recognized symbol for Islam is quite feminine and in ancient times was well recognized as belonging to the goddess Isis/Ishtar.
