"Zeus came to visit last week."
"What did he want?"
"He's interested in the re-birth of pagan belief systems and how it may affect his retirement."
"Well it's not like he's got to show up at temple or anything."
"Oh, I know and he knows, he just doesn't want to have to start answering prayers and the like, and he's not sure how he feels about the whole sacrifice thing anymore."
"Yea, that's so last millenium."
"Those were simpler times, though, weren't they? I mean, now it's just a constant barrage of 'oh help me help me!' But back then, if you don't like the weather? Burn some fruit. Worried about the farm? Burn a goat."
"Yea, you kind of let it go to your head with that Abraham/Isiah thing, though."
"Yes, well, we all have things we'd rather not discuss."
"Yes, you have quite a few, though don't you? Rapant flooding, burning, looting.. Angels of death... "
"Right, and like I said... all things I'd rather not... "
"Pillars of salt, death, destruction, mayhem... "
"Yes, thank you, that's quite enough."
"Right. Sorry. You did really turn it around well though. Sheer brilliance with the whole Jesus thing."
"Yes, well, same to you with Mohamed, and he didn't have to die a slow horrible painful death! Really well done."
"Ah, yes, thank you."
"Oh no, thank YOU!"
