So like Poseidon is god of the sea but there is also a god of the waves?

2019-12-02 18:19:54 UTC  

I may be a Protestant & find it ultimately malarkey, but it's still neat to be aware of it.

2019-12-02 18:20:47 UTC  

@ubermensch honestly if you want a solid grasp at the concept of the idea just check this video out, plus its humorous

Also Hindu mythology has essentially spaceships and lasers fighting over intergalactic wars

2019-12-02 18:21:34 UTC  

Which is kinda of awesome

2019-12-02 18:21:34 UTC  

Well if god of war ever gets to India

2019-12-02 18:21:41 UTC  

I am curious how that will play out

2019-12-02 18:22:00 UTC  

Im not even jokimg about the space ship part

2019-12-02 18:22:13 UTC  

Hindu myth is essentially ye oldy star wars

2019-12-02 18:22:22 UTC  

Weird

2019-12-02 18:22:25 UTC  

all i know about induism i learned playing Ashura's wrath

2019-12-02 18:22:27 UTC  

sorry

2019-12-02 18:22:50 UTC  

Well, yeah.. Hindu myth was used as an inspiration for Star Wars..

2019-12-02 18:23:06 UTC  

It was?

2019-12-02 18:23:12 UTC  

@Ryoma Nagare its interesting cause Ashura's Wrath borrows EVERYTHING from Hindu myth descriptions

2019-12-02 18:23:36 UTC  

Old George pulled inspiration from many sources- Star Wars is a synthesis of those sources.

2019-12-02 18:23:37 UTC  

So there's little exaggeration

2019-12-02 18:23:57 UTC  
2019-12-02 18:24:20 UTC  

Man say what you will about Indians, but old Indians knew how to tell a fun story

2019-12-02 18:24:33 UTC  

Hindus believe in big bounce theory

2019-12-02 18:24:46 UTC  

The original works of anything famous are typically inspired by history or religions, the new works are politically inspired.

2019-12-02 18:24:55 UTC  

Well, when you have folks that're tasked with just sitting & thinking...

2019-12-02 18:24:59 UTC  

These things happen.

2019-12-02 18:25:46 UTC  

Minecraft?

2019-12-02 18:25:52 UTC  

Who is playing?

2019-12-02 18:26:15 UTC  

@ubermensch so essentially each sub deity is a more specific version of the previous one givingnit more nuance

2019-12-02 18:27:20 UTC  

Indhuism has the best gods

2019-12-02 18:27:41 UTC  

I wish my god had an elphant head and 12 sets of arms

2019-12-02 18:27:44 UTC  

I dunno, I really fancy the Druidic ones.

2019-12-02 18:27:49 UTC  

Shintoism is a thing you know

2019-12-02 18:27:55 UTC  

You have the wife of the supreme god goddess who has a sub aspect which is the mother aspect which ahs a sub aspect wjich iz the warrior mother aspect which has the sub aspect of the brutal bloodthirsty warrior woman goddess

2019-12-02 18:28:27 UTC  

The Egyptian and nordic gods are also fascinating

2019-12-02 18:29:11 UTC  

@Ryoma Nagare that god is essentially the Jew of the Gods of Hinduism you know

2019-12-02 18:29:16 UTC  

Though, I know the Hindu, Egyptian & Nordic better than I know of the Druidic.

2019-12-02 18:29:43 UTC  

So, part of the fascination of the Druids is that I don't know overmuch about them.

2019-12-02 18:29:55 UTC  

i know i'm jewish 😄

2019-12-02 18:30:05 UTC  

thats why i used it

2019-12-02 18:30:32 UTC  

i'm super into how shinto has no qualms comercializing their faith

2019-12-02 18:30:42 UTC  

there's something refreshing about how honest it is

2019-12-02 18:30:50 UTC  

give coin , receive faith

2019-12-02 18:30:51 UTC  

And then either go for general middle eastern gods like the gods of Sumeria/Babylon/Assyria or go for the Persian Zoroastrian pantheon thingu @Laucivol
