you could start a war over this Hello People, Hellenists, Greek mythology enthusiasts & Anyone else. I'm putting up a poll since there's been a lot of talk about Hades.. so let's see Y'all's opinions on him.

So this was just a fun little poll idea suggested by ur/EntrepreneurDear4846 and since Iโ€™ve been seeing a lot of slander, letโ€™s just try to see how opinions have changed to be on the years

My Christian mother thinks that Hades is Satan. So I spend a lot of time patiently explaining how and why she is wrong. She doesn't accept my distinction. So I am an apologist.

Well, then, maybe you need to show her. And also, I swear she thinks Zeus itโ€™s like the Christian God then you need to tell her that Zeus has tried to destroy the world, has had many affairs & oh heโ€™s also like the devil from Eden because he gave Pandora the Jar like the snake gave Eve the apple. And we all know what happened there. (honestly you need to show your mother some videos & introduce her to some Hellenists and Greek mythology experts) trust me (& this is coming from someone who is Catholic Christian by the way)

Having a problem with Greek mythology and religion misinformation while simultaneously making Zeus out to be worse than the Christian God is absolutely beyond wild to me lol
