Title: ROMAN GODS
Post by: Instant_Killa on April 10, 2002, 11:27:45 PM

Well its fascinated me kinda, ancient Romans used to have their Gods like~Mercury (God of Commerce n Wealth), Venus (Goddess of love), Ceres (Goddess of somethin, lol), Mars (God of War), Zeus n others....

I wanna know if these were idol worships or prophets, and if they are something like in hinduism.....

Shed some light on these Gods, how come no 1 worships em now a days? or do they ?

Egyptians didn't worship cats, they had several gods, though.  One pharoah, Ankhenaton Switched the religion to worshipping 1 god, the sun god, "Aton", and everybody hated it.  As soon as he died, they switched it back, lol.
