>Iliad and Odyssey>Gods are awful>war is le bad>Trojan War happens because Helen 'the whore', not because Achaean Supremacy>Odysseus' men die because Gods are awful>Agamemnon, Chad of Chads, gets killed by his wife>both books are the pillar of Western CivilizationI hope more versions ruin this awful fanfiction.Plato was right, Homer should have been executed for his blasphemy against the Gods, his anti-Hellenism, his anti-Koryos and his anti-Thumos.
>>25413510Nice larping, bro.
>>25413510Plato was the blasphemer retard. Socrates and Plato invented the idea that the gods must be perfectly good ex nihilo. There was never any religion or people in the entire world prior to Socrates, including the Greeks, who thought that their gods had to live up to some imaginary ideal of perfect morality.
>>25413510While it is funny when extremely immature people try to into literature and get upset because it doesn’t fit their extremely specific and undeveloped view of how the world should be, it is annoying when you retarded faggots come here.Whether it’s leftists whining that things aren’t woke enough or faux-“conservative” children like you who can’t fathom nuance, it would be better if you just stuck to watching tv shows, or nowadays TikTok and podcasts
>>25413525Ex nihilo is a uniquely Christian concept.
>>25413564It’s a latin phrase that means “from nothing.” As in it doesn’t have cultural or historic precedent. And it appears in Latin writings from before Christianity existed.
>>25413525The Iliad, while popular, earned little reverence until the 5th century when jurists and grammarians treated it as a bible. Xenophanes (pre-Socrates) complained of Homer's representation of the gods (well before Thucydides discussed him as a reputable theologian, if sometimes inclined to figurative language).
>>25413510Plato was a tard who actually thought the gods should be catering to HIS ideas of good behavior
