Zeus was considered, according to Homer, the father of the gods and of mortals. He did not create either gods or mortals; he was their father in the sense of being the protector and ruler both of the Olympian family and of the human race.

Zeus even gave birth to a child without a mother. Athena, the goddess of wisdom, sprang from his head. It is believed that with the development of a sense of ethics in Greek life, the idea of a lecherous, s!

A present day version of my god, that's not that hard. The first name that came into my mind was President Bill Clinton. They are almost identically the same, except for being the father of all gods and mortals and all that other godly stuff. Clinton is probably the most powerful political person in the world.
