- Alethinos, on 02/25/2009, -1/+68Dugg for Age of Mythology image.
- Banhus, on 02/25/2009, -2/+49I love Greek myths
I don't love wannabe Cracked articles. - AtheismFTW, on 02/25/2009, -4/+42"[The Christian God] will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you."
-George Carlin - inactive, on 02/25/2009, -3/+40I would take drowning over an eternity of getting my liver eaten, by an eagle...
- AmyVernon, on 02/25/2009, -2/+34The Greek gods were bastards. I mean no disrespect, of course.
- versualize, on 02/25/2009, -1/+31Not mentioned: Zeus did flood the entire earth, killing every living thing except two people, Deucalion and Pyrrha. Who subsequently repopulated earth by throwing rocks over their shoulders which turned into people. Sweet.
- DirtyWorker, on 02/25/2009, -3/+27The Christian God has nothing on the Greek ones.. They did ***** to mankind for kicks and laughs, and it wasn't just "Bam, you're dead.", but could last for eternity.
- PabloIV, on 02/25/2009, -0/+23Hera was kind of a bitch
- Haoie, on 02/25/2009, -0/+20I love Greek mythology.
The gods really knew how to party. - cerealjynx, on 02/25/2009, -0/+15♫ Poooossiiiiiideeeen look at me ♪
- Memnochxx, on 02/25/2009, -0/+15Are waffles dicks?
- nixpix66, on 02/25/2009, -0/+13I love how Greek Gods could make mistakes, and sometimes just really ***** up. I also love how ***** awesome they were when they did ***** like this!!
- AtheismFTW, on 02/25/2009, -1/+12So hell isn't eternal? I'd take getting my liver eaten by an eagle over burning in misery forever.
- apackofmonkeys, on 02/25/2009, -2/+13"the"
- ngmcs8203, on 02/25/2009, -2/+11Just another story that the Bible borrows.
- DrewPeacock, on 02/25/2009, -0/+9I always wondered why it was ok for my third grade teacher to let me read a book of Greek mythology during quiet time, but God(s) forbid she should show a PG-13 movie...
- moomoomoomoo, on 02/25/2009, -0/+9Totally, nothing like todays perfect Gods, not a blemish in the world they created or anything, apparently. =P
- VenDrake, on 02/25/2009, -1/+10Ya know, I think I could find a better way to repopulate the earth :D
- manzplan, on 02/25/2009, -17/+25no worse than the flood that killed nearly every living thing as dished out by the Christian God
- JAVandiver, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8I wonder of they are going to get a DMCA notice from Microsoft.
- moomoomoomoo, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8Why can't we have Gods like that nowadays. =P
- DirtyVicar, on 02/25/2009, -1/+9A user named Zeus just signed up today so you all better be careful what you say.
- Grazfather, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8No she didn't, she was arguing she gave more pleasure, but lost.
- versualize, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8Her argument was that men get more out of sex than women do. It wasn't really explained in the article, but Wikipedia knows.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiresias#Overview - inactive, on 02/25/2009, -1/+9I sure do love reading about the myths in frat-boy vernacular.
- trolleyfan, on 02/25/2009, -0/+7At least Greek gods did their punishment on *individuals* who had *something* to do with what they were being punished for...even if it's a pretty crappy "something." The Christian god kills people just for being in the same country as someone he's annoyed at...
- trolleyfan, on 02/25/2009, -0/+6If you can imagine Zeus and Hera as a snaggle-toothed, rednecked couple, living in a trailer, him in a stained t-shirt reading a Hustler and her in curlers waving a frying pan...you've pretty much got a good grip on their personalities.
- cldnails, on 02/25/2009, -0/+6Oooohhhh, not GEEK Gods. Now the article makes much more sense.
- CoD4, on 02/25/2009, -0/+6Well if all on Olympus will deny me my vengeance, then all on Olympus will DIE!
- JAVandiver, on 02/25/2009, -0/+5More inbred I think. Some of them did marry.
- GavinZac, on 02/25/2009, -0/+5Hera was insisting men have a better time, Zeus was insisting women have a better time.
Given that they were a couple, I can't make out if their positions were bravado or complaint. - web2pointYo, on 02/25/2009, -0/+5Release the Kraken!
- trolleyfan, on 02/25/2009, -0/+5How about over having your firstborn - and all your friends and family's firstborns - killed?
- Hetman, on 02/25/2009, -4/+8What? You obviously have not recieved the memo. They are already the stuff of legends and myth. Seriously anyone who actually believes in a virgin birth, might as well beleive that zeus throws lightning bolts.
- mycoplasma, on 02/26/2009, -0/+4Ensemble should have made AOM2 instead of AOE3 and Halo Wars. Microsoft probably would've thought twice about shutting them down if they had.
- FreckleEars, on 02/26/2009, -0/+4oooOOOOOaaaahhhhhoooooooooooo
♫ I never thought I'd see the dayyyyyyy, when a big boat coming my wayyyyy ♪
This is followed by Poseidon drowning T-Pain in a hurricane =( - drjay2003, on 02/25/2009, -0/+4It's hard to find a god that hasn't pissed off more than a few people.
- altrego99, on 02/26/2009, -1/+5The Christian God may suck dick. I am not of that faith, therefore his jurisdiction does not apply on me.
- hoodedrobin, on 02/26/2009, -0/+4Prometheus had that happen until I believe Hercules killed the bird that was eating his liver.
"Prometheus, in eternal punishment, is chained to a rock in the Caucasus, where his liver is eaten daily by an eagle[4] or vulture, only to be regenerated by night.[5] Years later the Greek hero Hercules would shoot the vulture and free Prometheus from his chains.[6]" - Fhwqhgads, on 02/25/2009, -0/+4Cracked wannabe.
- MikeSetera, on 02/26/2009, -0/+3He loves you and he NEEDS MONEY
- inactive, on 02/25/2009, -1/+4Man made God in his own image.
- jc730, on 02/26/2009, -0/+3AoM was the *****.
- Cheesepuffly, on 02/26/2009, -0/+3Heh, i did a report in 6th grade on a Greek god, i think it was Prometheus, but then again, i probably picked him cause he was the final boss in starsiege.
- CrazySpaniard, on 02/27/2009, -0/+3almost as good as starcraft
and thats ***** saying something - mozidesigner, on 02/25/2009, -0/+3Just have Kratos kick all their asses!
- shmesh, on 02/26/2009, -0/+3Technically, when you say 'the Christian God', you're referring not only to the God of the Christians, but also of the Jews (especially) and Muslims as well.
- superman1023, on 02/25/2009, -4/+6maybe like the Greek Gods it's only a mater of time that J.C. and ALLAH become the stuff of legend.
- ExoticKosher, on 02/26/2009, -0/+2POSEIDON ANGRY!
- CrazySpaniard, on 02/27/2009, -0/+2At least it's all on one page
