== Weak concept of God? ==
::Slavic pre-Christian religion was originally polytheistic, with no organized pantheon.[142] Although the earliest Slavs seemed to have a weak concept of God, the concept evolved[143] into a form of monotheism where a "supreme god [ruled] in heaven over the others".[144]
If they were polytheistic, they certainly had a concept of gods. However, as they weren't Christian, they couldn't have had a concept of "God" (I presume capital G here is meant to refer to [[Yahweh]] despite the link to [[god]]), weak or otherwise. Is this supposed to mean they had a weak concept of a supreme god? ("Weak concept" could also use some more context.)

A fact from Early Slavs appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 3 March 2009, and was viewed approximately 3,039 times (disclaimer) (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Slavic pre-Christian religion was originally polytheistic, with no organized pantheon.[142] Although the earliest Slavs seemed to have a weak concept of God, the concept evolved[143] into a form of monotheism where a "supreme god [ruled] in heaven over the others".[144]
If they were polytheistic, they certainly had a concept of gods. However, as they weren't Christian, they couldn't have had a concept of "God" (I presume capital G here is meant to refer to Yahweh despite the link to god), weak or otherwise. Is this supposed to mean they had a weak concept of a supreme god? ("Weak concept" could also use some more context.) 93.136.15.96 (talk) 00:47, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
