Document Summary
Anthropomorphism: the process by which we give human form to things that are not really human. Uranus hated his children, thought they were ugly. So, he stuffed them back up the body of ge. All were scared except for one, cronus, he agreed to help his mother. Ge reached up inside of herself and pulled out a sickle and gave it to cronus. Cronus cut off his father"s genitals and threw them into the sea. His genitals started to foam and out of that, aphrodite was born (the most beautiful of all the gods and godesses. ) * a castrated male could not make babies! He ate all of his children, except zeus. Cronus thought he ate him, but he really ate a rock. Zeus ran and hid on an island called crete. One day zeus convinced cronus to spit up all his brothers and sisters and they fought cronus and his aunts and uncles.
