Both have similarities and differences in their religious beliefs that have been compared often and I have chosen to discuss the similarities and differences of Christianity and ancient Greek mythology.

Our modern society strives to be equitable and even if a person is rich doesn’t mean they shouldn’t help those less fortunate. In fact‚ it is a moral obligation to help those in true need of assistance. Most gods in Greek and Roman mythology were selfish‚ rude‚ and didn’t care for human lives. Comparatively‚ even people in modern society feel superior to those less fortunate and do not feel it is their job to help them
