Do you believe in God? Do you believe in Satan? Do you believe in Santa? One of the world's most profound religions doesn't really care what we believe. It has no holy books and no theologians to tell us what they mean. Artists, poets, and musicians shape its approach to the sacred, creating lots of vivid metaphors but not one dogma. This religion began over 3000 years ago, when the Olympian gods and goddesses first revealed themselves to mortals. These deities have been called the best ideas of a great civilization. Might they still have something to say to us today? DIVINE COMPANY begins a cycle of five volumes, together titled BRILLIANT GODS. These books challenge 2000 years of received opinion about Greek Polytheism. They ask us to expand our notion of what the word religion means. Is it possible that what we believe is far less important than what we imagine?
