Mythology

What are you favorite parts of mythology or old religions. Mine are the Eygptians and Greeks. Zeus with his man whoreyness. Ra that came out of the sea it is awesome :D:D

i enjoy the roman/greek mythologies meself. zeus was incest, btw. look up who all he had children with.
i also enjoy the egyptians.
but mostly, i like:
A. the Nordic.
B. Native American religions.

roman basically took everything from the greeks and just pretty much changed the names of things and called it roman and all that gods are lol in greek it all came from chaos

i like greek and Nordic and japeninees and chineninees = (yes i know it is mispelled)

I haven't study much of the chin. and jap. myth so what is it like ???

its interesting they don't focus as much on the gods but the focus on the warriors and magicl creatures more like the kitsune or ookami or demon or even ghosts

Interesting. Personally, I am facinated by all mythologies. Egyptian, Greek always facinated me, Buddhist, Heathen, all of them interest me. Got no favorite, no least favorite. just the one I know least about. Which...I don't know much about eastern mythologies. I know a little, but not enough to trick the natives into thinking I have studied it.

i agree mythogoily is a great but isn't mythiology just a form of dead religons? i think it is

mythology is a collection of myths, esp. one belonging to a particular religious or cultural tradition and myth are a traditional story, esp. one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events

True, but Toshi has a point. Egyptian Mythology...Christians have Mythology as well, but they never call it that. Same with the Muslims, same with the Hindus. We only have a concept of mythology in religions we consider either dead or lesser. For instance, we have Buddhist Mythology, yet people still follow this religion. But it is often considered like a subculture. Still, Mythological and Religeous Lore depends on how seriously your religion is taken.

i see and i agree with the both of you

Wh would win? Sampson or Hercules? Hercules is the morefamous of the two, but I don't know... Sampson kicked but on entire armies, and you never hear of Herc doing that...

hercules hands down

he has gods on his side
is is a denny god
etc.

I think he had...one god on his side. Apollo, Hera, Ares...The only god who actually liked him was Zues. And Sampson had the God of Isrel on his side. That means tha not only God, but Angels, Cherubim, Seraphim, etc, who are about at the level that the Olympian gods are at. 'd vote for Sampson, personally.

yes i had to read the story about him but when i di your right

Told ya. Ah yes, my favorite subject. Mythological heroes.

Who win Zesus or Odin?

Zeus or Odin... Now that is a tough one. I will have to go with Zeus. Zeus kicked out the titans after all...

only cause he had the help of the rest of the children he was just the first to kill which what he did was cut off a penis with a ice pick woosh i would say odin
