Ethics: Zeus and Jesus

"Compare the ethical behavior of Zeus with the ethical teaching of Jesus."



The ethics between Zeus and Jesus are extremely different from one another!  I can't stress enough how different the ethics are.  Zeus is a rather lawless individual.  Zeus cheated on his wife, Hera, and he turned the woman, Io into a heifer!

The teachings of Jesus vary greatly with the behavior of Zeus.  Jesus taught that adultery was a sin, and he taught that you are to love one another as you love yourself.  Jesus' ethical teachings are the complete opposite of Zeus' anti-ethical behavior.

Thank you so much for reading, and please let me know what you think!

  1. I really like what you do, and you're quite a good writer. I am taking two of the same classes (at least I think), Western Civilization and English 2. I actually came across your blog while researching the Great Schism. Your essay really helped me to understand what happened, as well as many other topics. Thanks :)
