LMFAO! For real though, they do. Whenever you hear the explanation to their way of life or how it works, it's crazy. They always make the most sense.

I'm pretty sure it was the Greeks or the Egyptians but in that area and time period, all there ideas made fuckin' sense. I can't think of alot off hand but ya know what I'm getting at right? Don't they though???


Myths

'Originally humans were combined of 4 arms, 4 legs, and a single head made of 2 faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spending their lives searching for the other half to complete them.' And that's where your soulmate or wife come from.

'Myth also has it that Venus' son Cupid accidentally shot arrows into the rose garden when a bee stung him, and it was the "sting" of the arrows that caused the roses to grow thorns. And, when Venus walked through the garden and pricked her foot on a thorn, it was the droplets of her blood which turned the roses red.'

This one is hilarious. 'Heracles was born of Zeus and a mortal woman, Alcmene. Just before Heracles was born, Zeus boasted that a son of his blood would be born that day and rule over the House of Perseus. Hera in jealousy, arranged with Eileityia, the goddess of childbirth, to delay the delivery. Eilethyia outside her bed room with her legs and fingers tightly crossed, effectively blocking delivery. Zeus switched with an other woman who was having his child but wasn't due yet. Zeus got Athena to bring the child to Hera, saying she found it outside the city and asked Hera to to pity him. Hera bared her breast to the baby but Heracles sucked with such force that Hera pulled her breast away.
The milk spurted across the sky and became the Milky Way.'


All their Gods make sense too and shit. Shit is crazy. Don't front.  8)

I took a course on Greek Myth a year ago. It was actually pretty interesting. I dunno if it makes a lot fo sense, but you can see its huge impact on today's society.

BTW, Zeus is the biggest pimp ever. He got more ass than anybody.
