Re: The key point needs addressing
so what makes the Iliad less believable?
​
I would say its the fact that the story revolves around demi gods and the earthly children of such god who have divine powers with which they can perform amazing supernatural feats.
​
On the other hand, no bible characters claim to have any special powers, or be born from any gods.
​
Have you ever read the Bible?
