What is your opinion of the Gods?

Well, if they do not fight for power, they aren't all-powerful, because it's a hierarchy. You cannot logically have a hierarchy of unlimited beings, it's impossible. There can only be one God.

And it doesn't make sense to compare humans, who are limited and ignorant, to God, the unlimited all knowing all powerful..

One of the reasons why there can't be polytheism is indeed what you claim, that the forces of nature are intertwined, no one really "controls" every force and each needs the other. ..

Another reason is that infinity cannot be divided and therefore if there are multiple idols they must be finite. And a finite thing is a limited thing. A restricted thing is something that someone has restricted.

Another reason why there is no reason to believe in polytheism is the principle of Occam's razor: if creation can be explained by one god, there is no reason to believe in the existence of other gods

There are no shortage of reasons.

Your reasoning is fallacious.
You assume something is true, but the assumption of a conflicting premise does not disprove anything-- it merely calls it into doubt.

You cannot prove that the universe is NOT ruled by a divine Wavy Gravy.

i hope they dont hurt me,the gods
But the one God i belive in,Anything he does to me im gratefull,even if it is a punishment

The temptation to become a god was too much for them and in doing so they threw away Gods love, so they are lost without Gods love. They might be gods but in truth , they are lost souls looking for a way home xxx

Good that Nietzsche was anti-christian, otherwise it would have been a massacre.

There is only one person who can answer these questions: Rick Sanchez!

They are really good to play games like Age of Mithology :)

But I believe they are all products of the mind of humans, that were trying to explain the beginning and the origins of the world, when few technological resources and knowledge were available.

We kept on learning one day after another, improving a lot of things, and Greek Gods are amazing to study their culture, their history, but they are products of intelligent minds.

Here comes a paradox if God is all powerful that would mean God could create a rock heavy enough that it couldn't lift the paradox is if he creates the rock God isn't all powerful and if God lifts it God couldn't create that rock with that exact caracteristics
