Your favorite Greek Gods/Goddesses?

Damn straight it is, no one believes me though when I try to correct them :/.

 

It's that Disney movie's fault. It's about as historically correct as Day of All the Blood.

I mean, everyone now thinks Hades is an evil monster and that Zeus is some sort of great guy. -_-

They also think Heracles was trained by a satyr and that he had a Pegasus. Seriously, WTB Disney?

I know, people talk of Hercules and I'm just like, "um, actually he was called Heracles", but they just say things like, "Wrong! Disney says it's Hercules! Idiot." I sometimes lose faith in humanity, but then I remember that we still have awesome people like Tara Strong. Edited by Chill Mists (Chilly)

I hate that! "Oh Disney is the master of the universe, everything they say is true, factual, and morally right." bucking fools.

The same goes for Dr. Oz and the news. People put too much trust in people who are supposed to be making you believe them.

Oh, and since we are on the topic of Greek myth, it's Heracles not Hercules.

 

True fact.

 

And I'd say my favourite deity is Zeus, he managed to castrate his father (Cronos) and fling him in Tartarus, impressive if you ask me.

Also a friend of mine goes by the name Zeus sometimes, as he often wears a jumper with "Zeus" printed across the front.

Just be sure Disney doesn't poison your mind with thoughts that Zeus is a great guy. He's not, plain and simple. In many cases he's one of the worst gods on Olympus (in regards to treatment of others and moral beliefs). He constantly cheated on his ever-loyal wife. He tortured mortals on a regular basis and he often punished those he cheated on instead of taking responsibility himself.

 

Nonetheless, he was pretty cool. :P

YOU'RE MAKING ME CHOOSE? The hardships of being a Greek mythology nerd...

I like all of them....I really can't choose! *pulls out hair*

It must be hard trying to rule both gods and mortals, maybe he just needed a hug?

Not sure if you consider yourself incredibly beautiful and charismatic, or incredibly deformed and misshapen...

 

God of creation and inventions, and goddess of romance. Heart, mind, and body. I prefer the Heart and Mind.

I figured as much, I was just messing around.

Hephaestus, thrown from Olympus twice, was known for being a cripple and a monstrosity in appearance (from birth according to Homer), while Aphrodite, born on the waves from sea foam (and you don't want to know what else), was known for being the most beautiful goddess of all (according to Paris that is, others tell of Hera being the most beautiful of all the immortals).

God - Posiedon. Dunno why, I've always loved the sea. Long as I'm not in it...

 

Goddess-Artemis. Cause I'm just a treehugger at heart. X3

If you are a tree hugger, then surely Pan would be a better description.

Unless, you know, you're a maiden huntress who travels the world, killing nearly everyone who sees you naked and helping women in childbirth.

I'm a jerk sometimes, sorry. :(

I don´t have a favourite god, just goddesses..

Athena, because wisdom&war. Perfect combination.

and Artemis, because hunt&wildlife.

I like Zeus the best. I know it's unoriginal, but I just like how Zeus is the god of gods, and how he can use lightning bolts when he's angry.

Aphrodite baby. She's the most beautiful of all the goddesses. That's really my only reason.

 

Athena is cool too, and I really like the story of Arachne. She also happens to be the goddess of knowledge, something necessary.
