I also very like the greek mythology. I know a lot about greek gods and storys like Illias!!!

Greeks religion is really amazing! It's really poetic, and thouthfull.
The bad thing is that it's called "Mytholgy". Mythology meens it's not real. why would it be unreal?

At least they have cool stories about their Gods. Then again, they were also less logical than us when it comes to religion.

The Greek heroes and gods kicked as$!! Take a look at Achilles. When he was an infant his mother dipped him in the Styx so he would be invurnabale expect is hell where she held him. He was a beast on the battle field killing everyone and toppling Hektor the horse breaker. To bad he got shot in the heel with Paris's arrow.

Greek myths are heck of a lot more interesting than you would think they would be. The constant theme in them is [/b]NEVER EVER PISS OFF THE GODS!!![b] They will smite you... hard. This is more enjoyable than Noah building a boat. That's just my opinion.

Then again, they were also less logical than us when it comes to religion.

Those that mean that u are right and theyre not?
Why would they be wrong, and not you?

In school, we studied this for a while in Social Studies. Read a whole book on all the myths, gods, etc. I found it to be quite interesting! I love how they have an almost super-natural explanation for everything. So cool!

Meh favorite god is Apollo! He was the god of light (the Sun obviously...), logic, and music. WHAT'S YOURS?!

Twelve Olympians ( dodeka theoi) are:
Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Ares, Hermes, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Hestia.

These are not included in the classical list of the Twelve Olympians, but they are sometimes included in other lists of the Twelve Olympians, as noted above.

-Alpheus - A river-god.
-Asklepios - God of medicine and healing.
-the Charites - Goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity and fertility.
-Cronus - Titan; father of Zeus.
-Dionysus - God of wine, parties, and merriment (Became an Olympian when Hestia left).
-Hades - Lord of the Dead; god of the Underworld and earthly (gems and precious metals) wealth.
-Hebe - Goddess of youth, and cupbearer.
-Helios - Titan; Personification of the Sun.
-Heracles - Greatest hero of the Greek myths.
-Persephone - Goddess of the spring and death, daughter of Demeter.
-Rhea - Titaness; mother of Zeus.

Heracles - Greatest hero of the Greek myths.

One of the best gods is Hephaestus cause even though he could not walk well he was the god of technology, blacksmiths, craftsmen, artisans, sculptors, metals, metallurgy, fire and volcanoes.
