Where and what would the gods be in this time and age?
Gods behaving badly is someone corny and cliche for someone like me. Its a story about the Olympian gods fallen from mt. olympius and losing their powers ever since Christianity is born in earth. Although these gods still have little power to be able to do their functions. Yes, unfortunately even after humans/mortals stopped believing in them and replaced them with Christianity they still try to do the jobs that they were born to do.
Take aphroditte, the goddes of love and beauty... now working as a phone sex operator. And there is Artimes who is now a proffesional dog walker. Apollo a t.v. pyschic and so on and so forth. The story is about these greek gods forced to live in a shabby house in london. Artimes hired a cleaner which apollo fell inlove with and he was turned down by this mortal. Knowing apollo, he coaxed zues to kill alice "the cleaner". Eventually everything turned worst to bad when apollo wanted to prove his god hood to neil the boyfriend-to-be of alice. In the process in proving his the god of sun, he manage to turn the sun off and put himself into a coma bringing the earth into darkness and would freeze earth to an end. Now its up for niel to be the hero to save the world.
The book is somewhat corny as i mentioned above. however it is rather funny and amusing if you are looking for something to read to let time pass you by. Its a good thing this book only cost around php200 coz its just really worth its price. The concept of the story is rather obvious, while these greek gods thought that they are getting old and with it getting weak and losing their powers... The real reason why it is happening is because mortals have stoped believing in them. A lot of fiction books has the same context. Gods loosing their godhood because nobody is worshipping them anymore.
So i wonder, with the rising of the wiccan religion that would mean that some people are starting to believe in the gods of the old worlds and actually starting worshipping them, could it be that a couple of years from now the gods of the old days will once again be powerful enough to claim what was rightfully theres in the first place before christianity robbed them from thier thrones?
mmmmmm points to ponder.
