Lets' hypothesize that there was a place where every god that was or still is worshipped by humanity actually existed, from the spirits of Native American tribes to Christian God to the Greek and Norse deities, to everyone.

Who would you follow? Not nessecarily worship, of course, because if a god is right there you hardly have to "Believe" in him. Bacon exists, I don't have to "believe" in it every morning to eat it. Anyways, if you had to pick one god, past or present, who would it be? And if you have a religion try and pick a different one then you already follow, for variety's sake.

I'd probably follow the ancient Greek Godesse Athena. Godesse of Wisdom, crafts, civilisation, and noble warfare. Of all the Greek gods she was the least ridiculous and because of the Pantheon nature of their gods she was free to be worshipped soely as a god of her portfolio. That's the problem with the Christian Religion. There's just one god so everything has to come from him, good and evil. With a pantheon you can explain the different aspects of reality by attributing each one to a different god or aspect thereof, resulting in less corruption of the specific god.

I am my own god. I would follow myself.

What a pointless @#%$ thread.

This is the Rebel Cafe. Its' all about pointless threads. You arn't forced to read each thread you know, you can go outside, speak to fellow human beings, that sort of thing.

What about majorly polytheistic countries that believe everything is a god?


Anyway, I prefer mine, but on a hypothetical basis only, I always found Zeus rather fascinating.

Damnit, Dolash.

Athena (or Venus, if you prefer the Roman ideoligy: steal everything the Greeks did and call it your own).

Or Aphrodite. She was damn hot. And naked.

Just a note drayson.

Athena is named Minerva in roman mythology.

Aphrodite is the god formerly known as Venus.

Just keeping our gods straight.

Lets see my favorite god?

Pallas-Athena (Athena)

Goddess of victory in battle and of the peace that follows such victorys. She kicked but of the likes of Aries and was still intelligent.

Gentle yet deadly. Reminds me of a few Toa-ists I know.
