Helen of Troy Was a Half Goddess

And there is some weird part in the story of the seduction of her mortal mamma, with Zeus turning into a peacock.  It's some fucked up shit.  But memo to the assholes bitching and moaning about the new Odessey movie with a Black actress being cast as Helen?

Get Over Your White Supremacist Bigotry

Like the smart lady in the vid says.  It's a myth.  It's not history.  Homer's retelling of old tales of the old gods are not really the history of a people. It's their mythology, and old polytheist religion.  That is mostly . . .  reimagined Egyptian mythology and their old polytheist religion. Minus the obsession with death and rebirth.

So when you think of it.  They left out the best parts.  Messrs Ibis and Jacquel.  Otherwise known as Thoth and Anubis.

The scribe for the book of life and deaths, and his sort of counterpart, the lord gatekeeper to the afterlife and the realm of Osiris.
