    When did the gods acquire human traits?

    Between 1200 and 900 BC With the development of hierarchically ordered city-states, the so-called Homeric religion arose, in which the gods not only took on a human form, but also human traits and lived in a strict hierarchy like humans. They were subject to feelings and passions, loved, hated, were full of envy or pity. They were like humans and associated with them, except that they were powerful and immortal gods.


    The gods also had relationships with one another, lived in families, fathered children, cheated, fought and supported one another. The gods spanned the whole cosmos. Apollo was responsible for art. Athena promoted science. Hera protected the marriage. Poseidon ruled the sea. Hades ruled the realm of the dead. The world consisted of divine effects and the life of the people was oriented towards the gods. According to Greek belief, the gods had chosen the top of Mount Olympus as their seat.

      The text above by Faustus Heroldus describes the Greek world of gods from ancient mythology. However, there is no direct connection with the highlight referred to here as "Saints", because in Christianity (regardless of whether it is a Catholic, Protestant or Orthodox denomination) there is no multitude of gods, but only the one Trinity, who is found in the persons of God the Father , God the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit - the so-called "Trinity" - manifested. The images attached to this highlight show shots from the Orthodox Church of Cargese.
