Ah, Zeus, Master of Olympus. Good city sim.

[–]NinjaHighfive 7 points8 points ago

I like this actually. When you say "Atheist" in America people are like "What? You don't believe in god?" And then I have to tell them I don't believe in ANY god. This concept is new to them. Polyatheist is a great way of saying that- while making a little joke.

[–]lordt[S] 2 points3 points ago

That's why I write "I don't believe in God(s)" and I say "I don't believe in gods"

[–]FlyingHigh 2 points3 points ago

Why would you capitalize god then?

[–]NinjaHighfive 1 point2 points ago

Must be 'Murican.

English.

I had an accident while typing it out.

Here you are sir: /r/polyatheism

[–]Dyolf_Knip 0 points1 point ago

Especially since the believer qualifies as one themselves.

[–]Haz_Matt 0 points1 point ago

Simply put: I don't believe in brainwash/fairy tales.

I'm waiting for comments from "polyagnostics"

[–]Magicalraddish 1 point2 points ago

There are hundreds of gods that I don't care if they exist or not.

[–]dumnezero 2 points3 points ago

that's polyapatheism, not polyagnosticism

[–]ReyTheRed 1 point2 points ago

There is an infinite number of gods that I don't believe in.

[–]quivering 1 point2 points ago

... and there are several billion of them inside the heads of people on this planet.

[–]Valdair 1 point2 points ago

If I were to choose any religion based on its gods, I would definitely have to go with the Greek ones. Bunch of inbreeding idiots that do shit because they feel like it, and love meddling with mortals just because one broke the other's toy or whatever. Total accountability but no one gives a fuck. Sounds awesome.

[–]Fierydeath 1 point2 points ago

If Zeus doesn't exist, where do lightning bolts come from?! HA.

Greeks/Romans: 1

Atheists: 0

[–]Wissam24 0 points1 point ago

Which is a shame, because Zeus: Master of Olympus, which this picture comes from, is an awesome game.

[–]jungleman4545 0 points1 point ago

I love the greek mythology. There are so many badass heroes, and great stories. They are much cooler than anything in the bible. It's just simply awesome.

[–]BigTimer5 0 points1 point ago

I honestly think that there are parallels to be drawn.

[–]lysflatheaven 0 points1 point ago

i've got news for you...you're probably going to polyhell

[–]khast 0 points1 point ago

Bring. It. On!

[–]Coolguy_McAwesome 0 points1 point ago

hundreds of thousands

FTFY

[–]c0pypastry 0 points1 point ago

How come Zeus is so fucking swole? Are bolts of lightning REALLY that heavy?

[–]SpiritHeretic 0 points1 point ago

I can't remember if this is from Age of Mythology or what. Or maybe one of those building games. Can't remember.

[–]Gh0sts44 0 points1 point ago

It's from Zeus, a city builder. Really fun game, impossible to find anywhere but there are torrents of it.

[–]SpiritHeretic 0 points1 point ago

Ah. I probably have it on CD somewhere, my mom loved playing these.

[–]rockoman100 0 points1 point ago

Love this.

[–]AL_CaPWN422 0 points1 point ago

Well, hundreds of gods said to exist. Saying "are" breaks the meaning.

[–]khast 0 points1 point ago

Although, I will admit that most of the ancient gods were much more interesting than the Abrahamic god.

[–]orthag 0 points1 point ago

Hundreds of gods more badass than Yahweh. Yahweh is the name of the Judeo-Christian god, for those who didn't know. He was a Canaanite sky deity and then he evolved into what we have today.

[–]xXArisenXx -2 points-1 points ago

Atheism already means that you don't believe any gods are real.

"Polyatheist" is a redundant term that unnecessarily complicates a definition that couldn't have been simpler in the first place.

[–]Keegan320 0 points1 point ago

OP can correct me if wrong, but i'm pretty sure this was a joke

[–]lordt[S] 0 points1 point ago

Yes, it is a joke.

[–]xXArisenXx -1 points0 points ago

I hope you're right.
