Imagine being Ares, the Greek god of war. So what if you didn't win every single battle. Who could? That shouldn't give them the right to say you needed to use more strategy and less jumping into the fray of battle just because you enjoyed fighting with your fists. What sort of action figure isn't a bit on the hot-blooded side? nbsp;nbsp;: : : : : :nbsp; nbsp;Would you be surprised if all the gods and goddesses were just a wee bit jealous? Maybe that is what it is . . . being the one picked by that "hottie" Aphrodite, the breathtakingly beautiful goddess of love. Or as they say . . . you can't win 'em all! nbsp;nbsp;: : : : : :nbsp; nbsp; The Greek god Zeus, a sky god fighting together with his brothers, defeated the ruling Titans and was elected to rule in his father's place. He proved to be an able ruler, though his administration was frequently beset by various scandals (usually involving his amorous goings-on with the ladies, goddess and mortals alike) and his having to wield the occasional thunderbolt to bring his unruly followers back into line. nbsp;nbsp;: : : : : :nbsp; nbsp;Though he turned Mount Olympus into a patriarchy, he was a benevolent king and the goddesses, though fragmented in their powers, achieved position of power nonetheless. ;nbsp;nbsp;: : : : : :nbsp; The Goddess Quiz.

Although he could be quite impulsive, even tumultuous, Poseidon, like the ocean he ruled was a man of great depth. nbsp;nbsp;: : : : : :nbsp; nbsp;Apollo, twin of Artemis brought a sense of rationality and civilization to the Olympians. It was Apollo who first introduced them to science and the field of medicine, and Apollo who entertained them and enriched their lives with Art and Music for the Muses seldom strayed from his side.
