| dtewi said: Slightly off-topic. but the Greek gods were really fucking sadistic and insane. Tantalus cooked his son (I think Poleps or something) and fed him to the gods for dinner. His punishment? Stand on the barrier of heaven for all eternity dying of thirst and hunger (but never dying) with water and food JUST out of his reach. Horrible. Also, another person (forget the name) was doomed to be attached to a cliff and every day a bird would come and eat his organs and he would only be revived so that his organs could be eaten every day forever. Think they'd be happy by giving a simple case of amnesia? That's BORING. |
Those were both punishments given to people who DIRECTLY went against the gods.
