So after seeing this commercial for the millionth time, I had to wonder, what does Zeus think of this commercial? Or what other gods/goddesses think of representations of Themselves from commercials, cartoons, movies, etc. Do you think it makes Them angry? Happy? Sad? Disappointed? Annoyed? Amused? Apathetic? It probably depends on the representation and the deity, so is there any specific situations that you think (or know) a deity does(n't) like?

Funny that you brought this up. I've actually thought about saying something about this after reading The Red Pyramid and talking to Djehuti about it. I know He wasn't too happy how Rick represented the different Kemetic deities and He told me that He actually wasn't completely pleased with the Percy Jackson series either. I didn't get a chance to ask Him what all else was false in fear that I was going to royally piss Him off.

Hmm, that makes me also wonder, would it annoy/bother Him if you liked these books? Or would He want you to avoid them and/or others like them?

From what I understand from the conversation I had with Him, as long as I know it's not true He has no problem with me reading those books. The only time I've annoyed him is when I ignored Him while in one of my fits and completely went against the lessons He had taught me thus far. Which says a lot about some of my fits since He's usually very patient.

It's just my personal opinion but I think most gods have some sense of humor- I mean, look at the uvula. 3nodding
