But in telling the truth to others, the mistake was made, because there are always two things, the truth and the mistake. They said, "If there is a God of mercy and power and goodness and kindness and affection, then there are five Gods. I will take the God of mercy, and you can take the God of power." He said, "There is not mercy only. Mercy is different, kindness is different, favor is different, affection is different." They said, "Then there are ten gods. I will take the god of favor." And one who was very cruel said, "I will take the god of war." In this way the father had a different god, the son had a different one, the brother, the sister, the mother, each had his own god. There came innumerable gods all over the world; especially among the Mongolian races there were millions and billions of gods and goddesses.
