Antigas sim, mas certamente de valor, principalmente nestes tempos de IURD e congêneres.
Protágoras ( aprox. 485-411 B.C )
About the gods, I am not able to know whether they exist or do not exist, nor what they are like in form; for the factors preventing knowledge are many: the obscurity of the subject, and the shortness of human life.
Prodico ( fl. Sec. V B.C )
The ancients thought that sun and moon and rivers and springs, and in general everything that benefits the life of men were gods, because of the benefit coming from them.
Xenófanes ( aprox. 570 - 478 B.C )
Homer and Hesiod ascribed to the gods whatever is infamy and reproach among men: theft and adultery and deceiving each other.
Mortals suppose that the gods are born and have clothes and voices and shapes like their own.
But if oxen, horses, and lions had hands or could paint with their hands and fashion works as men do, horses would paint horse-like images of gods and oxen ox-like ones, and each would fashion bodies like their own.
The Ethiopians consider the gods flat-nosed and black; the Thracians blue-eyes and red-haired.
No man knows or ever will know the truth about the gods and about everything I speak of: for even if one chanced to say the complete truth, yet oneself knows it not; but seeming is wrought over all things.
