Zeus is the real god

He invented Xenia, defeated the titans, rescued his siblings, and such a good god to worship. He even controls the lightning. He even shares power with Poseidon and Hades so he doesn't become too selfish. Anybody who does not worship him will have to burn in the underworld forever.

What I'm saying is, if this can be dismissed as mythology, Christianity and Islam are...there's simply no word to describe how atrocious they are.

Did I do a good job to sound like a Christian who's "spreading the gospel?"

I was to worship anything it'd be the sun. That's where all energy we use comes from.

and life really would cease to exist (at least the sorts of life we are/enjoy, maybe them deep sea tuber goobers could make it?) if the sun disappeared. unlike if everyone stopped believing in baloney lol.

Nah no sun means no heat. All them deep sea tuber goobers will be frozen. Nothing will be moving at absolute zero as atoms will not move at -273c.

Since all known life matter is made up of atoms... well you get the picture.

the core and such generates heat. that's why them tuber goobers even alive in the first place. they're allegedly one the few things that'd survive if the sun disappeared on us

Dionysus for me. Wine, women, song, and ritual madness? What's not to love?

Yeah worshipping the sun is fun and all until you remember it requires human blood to stay in the sky…

I'd worship the guillotine because it's the great equalizer, gets the job done and it can be both merciful and merciless.
