Subject: Greeks were sick people

Master Chief Rules!!!

I just has my first Greek Myth class today.

First myth we get explained: Apollo fell in love with a boy, he eventually raepd him. Another god called Zephyr was jealous because he also loved the kid, so when Apollo was playing discus with the boy, the wind god blew so the discus hit the boy's head and killed him.

I don't know how many atrocities were in a single story there

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

That's a... lucky kid?

Yea...big reason why I did not enjoy the Percy Jackson movie( that and terrible acting). Like why the hell would he care about his son? How many other children does he have? /rant

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

You're just realizing that Greek Mythology is -blam!- up?

Venus was born from foam that came out of Ouranos' severed testicle near Cyprus.

Edit: Damn, I don't want to get banned. Don't turn this into a religious thread, guys.

op, take a look at the bible

op, while the greek has some interesting story, try looking at the bible.

or hell the quran, every major religion(and minor ones) have parts which today would be deem repulsive. but when the mythos were originall created well. it wasn't as repulsive and more then not tought a good life lesson.

that said homo-blam!-ity in ancient greek wasn't nearly as astrocised even when compared to moderate countries like the us or the uk.

We know where this is going so kill thread now.

Hey op, try the bible.

Some parts of the Bible are bad, but God in the Bible doesn't -blam!- children.

But yes, the ancient Greeks were rather messed up morally.

Well by what standards? If by today's, I agree. But back then, that stuff was fine. They were one of the first civilizations and were just out of the barbaric like stage. Baby steps, you can only expect culture to develop so fast.

Master Chief Rules!!!

Problem is that a real Greek guy wrote that story lol

  • 01.07.2013 4:26 PM PDT

Sex was a big part of their culture. Don't judge

yea no, instead he impregnates virgin women, commits genocide on a massive level, kills without remorse and orders fathers to kill their own children.


how -blam!- up do you have to be to order you father to kill you?

  • 01.07.2013 4:31 PM PDT

Parents kill their kids regardless of the Bible or not. You people don't make any sense.

That is irrelevant, no one is saying that holy books make people do horrible things, well maybe the OP since he called the greeks sick, but thats besides the point.

He just said that there was some messed up stuff in them, I point ed out the bible has plenty of morally reprehensible acts in it.

If you'd actually read it, you'd see that God had a very valid reason. Literally everyone on the planet were doing nothing but evil 24/7. The only people he saw that were somewhat good was a family of like 10 people. Lrn2read.

If you think that punishing people when they do bad things is evil, good luck holding down a job.
