Bronze Age Slaws????

I found that is the wish of all Slavs, a bronze age culture. What for a absurd wikipedia article. really competent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:46:D73:23B:78C1:78E4:A9FD:4731 (talk) 18:19, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chernoles culture

I synchronized the previous date with that in the special article, where it is backed up with sources. HJJHolm (talk) 15:36, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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.) 93.136.15.96 (talk) 00:47, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
