I don't have a problem! Merely that I cannot see the point in posting reams of excerpts from a book, and only one book at that. Many members post long articles from their own experience and belief. Why not just recommend the book?
Anyway, forget it. There was nothing wrong with way the post was written.

Unless it was plagiarised this is not the same as reading the book directly. Personally I enjoy reading reviews or third party takes on books and literature. It helps anyone who has read it understand the material from different perspectives. The point in doing this I would imagine is to share knowledge or at least collaborate in the learning process.

EyesofZeus, don't ever feel discouraged by people who don't share the same beliefs or interests with you even if they did somehow become a moderator. You have just as much right to share information about Graeco-paganism as anyone does about Wicca, Druidry, or any other popular topic on this website.

Anyway about the original post itself (haven't had a chance to really look at the second in depth) I appreciate someone sharing some Grecian lore, it's refreshing. I'm a big fan of it to be honest. So then, the story or stories of Prometheus are some of my favorites. It really reveals what kind of hatred Zeus and other Olympians may ba capable of. The spite they held for those who didn't worship them was astronomical. I also always found it hilarious because Zeus was described as basically the perfect being as having the greatest wisdom and the most power (probably the most coveted qualities of ancient greece besides being male) but somehow, someone would occasionally show him up. lol

Now the fun part is I have never heard of the second creation described here. I was only familiar with the first supposed creation theory. So in all I really very much enjoyed this article. Thank you Eyes.

Thank you, Dackson. And everyone else.

And I am saying, this is not directly from the book. The ideas are from the book, I just wrote an article explaining them.
