As much as I hate to support Homosteaded, even I know that using another fictional diety to discredit the xtian god is disingenuous at best.

For thousands of years in Egypt, sun gods, gods of death, fertility, resurection and magic reigned supreme. X god seemed to be absent or at best uncaring.

Then, someone thort of a great story. It had sex and death and mystical virgin births. The indivisible oneness of the holey trinity.

So, so far we got us a son (sun), virgin birth (mystical fertility) and crucifiction (death) with a resurrection.

I have heard this story before somewhere. And it was not good the first time.
Until next time, fuckers!
May your heart will be judged heavy on the scales and fed to an alligator.

Also your fan-fic of how the world would of changed had Christianity never rose is pretty good. Clearly taking quite a bit of liberty with your assumptions.
Fine then, I have a strong feeling that Christianity is just Zeus retelling of the Greek myths.

I am saying the Bible is pro Zeus propaganda?

Yep, straight off the bat with Genesis,

-you got the description of the creation of the primordial deities, Chaos, Nyx, Hemera, Gaea, etc

But pretending all Zeus, who did it all.

I am sure your questioning.. yeah but Zeus never slayed a Leviathan.

But that is clearly an insert for the Lernaean hydra, no he didn't, but his son Heracles did and he's just pretending he did it.

Besides it happened way earlier to not a rise suspicion.

And I know what you are thinking but what about Adam and Eve - They are not in Greek mythology.

Bear with me, but he's slandering Prometheus.
So Promethius created the first humans out of clay, right?
But Zeus hated the idea of intelligent creatures having independence and autonomy, so he kept fire away from them and hope that they just died off.

Then Prometheus snuck fire out of Olympus and brought it down so the humans would have light and warmth, which Zeus hated.

So in actuality Prometheus is Lucifer, I mean, Lucifer does translate to Lightbringer.

So yeah Zeus rewrote whole the deal, demonizing Prometheus and pretending he was the good guy the whole time.

He probably did this a ton of times, it would explain God's capricious nature and weirdly expansive power set.

For example, the giants in the Greek myth were destroyed through a group effort from The Greek Pantheon. But the Nephilim, the race of giants in the Bible that God purges with the whole Noah Ark thing... that was just him using Poseidon's powers.

Now I am sure you now asking... well then... who is Jesus? Well.... Dionysus, born on December 25th could turn water into wine.

I could go on and on.

Zeus wasn't the creator God even in Greek mythology.

Well the humans believed he was the cause of life (Zen) - Diodorus Siculus, Bibliotheca Hisorica, Books I-V, book 5, chapter 72

And Zeus is respected as the allfather and assigned roles to the others. Even the gods who are not his natural children address him as Father.

If he was created and went on to create others, does that make him the Creator?

I created a shed. Am I the god of sheds?

sorry didn't see your post.

This is the very first post containing the search term 'Phanes' on the Project1999 forums.

Botten making up stories.

No, I don't.

Phanes then births what in Hesiod are the primordial beings, first Nyx and then Gaia, Uranus, etc. Thus, in the Orphic creation myth, it is Phanes, not Chaos, that is the creator of the world.
