Dionysus

Dionysus is obviously the best god. In his cult, it is one's religious duty to become drunk on his drink. Obviously, his sect would be the most fun to be a member of.

ZEUS!

Zeus is the mightiest of gods! He is their king, and he could beat any god or monster of myth and legend in a fight.

Athena is the best!!!!!

In case you people haven't noticed, Athena played a HUGE part in all the Greek myths. She ended the trojan war by telling the Greeks to build their giant horse. She invented the olive tree,which the Greeks used almost every day. They used the olive branches to make crowns for prizes at events like the olympics. She ROX!

Team Athena for the Win!

Athena is by far the best god/goddess of all time! She's the goddess of wisdom and at the same time, war. She's tough, smart and beautiful. What more could you ask for? And her patron animal is the owl. That's pretty cool if you ask me.

Athena Rulez!

Or something like that. When I was in Athens I bought an 18 carat gold ring with her beautiful profile. Evidently, the profile is a copy of a c.345BC tetradrachm. The bad news is I have lost it and a part of myself. Come back to me great Goddess, παρακαλώ.

Zeus is the number one top dog. Don't mess with him or you might get a lighting bolt in the behind.

Isis

Isis is the goddess of EVERYTHING! Life, death, magic, marriage, childbirth, etc. You name it and she's probably had attributed to her at some point!

Zeus

Without Zeus their'd be no sky! No Oxygen! Life without oxygen is Life without Life!Vote Jupiter/Zeus! He rocks. Big time. And, sky is like a blanket on Gaea. Also, who doesn't like thunderstorms? He's one of the Three (or something) Eldest Gods. He's father to Perseus and Hercules and a bunch of other cool heroes.
