Yeah . . . but did he not shack up with Xena?

Flees from the flying bricks. . . .

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Of course he did! Otherwise I wouldn't mention it! There is no knowledge beyond Xena and on-line referencies...

I mean, you want to discuss evidence for a god's existence, regular guest appearances on TWO syndicated shows is pretty persuasive.

Of course . . . Junior appears occassionally on South Park while Satan co-starred in a major motion picture.

I think if you are gambling on salvation, you have to be rational about it. . . .

True!

Otherwise, if you are not ready for those necessairy steps, maybe you should move to Europe and establish a political party, which is pretty much the same with creating a new religion! LOL

Well in that case, God appeared in several major motion pictures, beginning in the silent film days.

Good luck, mark9950. When I was pagan, I chose the Roman Goddess Venus.

Backsliding christians considering paganism should have no problem worshipping the greek God Hermes~

Hermes, the herald of the Olympian gods, is son of Zeus and the nymph Maia, daughter of Atlas and one of the Pleiades. Hermes is the god of shepherds, land travel, merchants, weights and measures, oratory, literature, athletics and thieves, and known for his cunning and shrewdness. Most importantly, he is the messenger of the gods. Besides that he was also a minor patron of poetry. He was worshiped throughout Greece -- especially in Arcadia -- and festivals in his honor were called Hermoea.

According to legend, Hermes was born in a cave on Mount Cyllene in Arcadia. Zeus had impregnated Maia at the dead of night while all other gods slept. When dawn broke amazingly he was born. Maia wrapped him in swaddling bands, then resting herself, fell fast asleep.

...just something similar about the lad.

You can get an Ares bobblehead doll from the official XenaHercules website.

You know, if you think about it, this God thing and silent film are a perfect pair -- one never hears a peep out of either one.
