"It doesn't take from our worship of the Eternal Father, to adore our Eternal Mother, any more than it diminishes the love we bear our earthly fathers, to include our earthly mothers in our affections. In fact, the love of one is a complement of our love for the other. We honor woman when we acknowledge Godhood in her eternal Prototype."
