XENOPHANES: Are The Homeric Greek Gods Stupid? | Ancient Greek Philosophy Explained

Our main man!! Xenophanes puts forward some incredibly interesting premises about the idea of religion and god, most notably arguing against the common thought of the famous Homeric gods. In this video we go into the VERY VERY basic ideas Xenophanes puts forward in his fragmented work "On Nature", so hopefully this kick starts you guys into asking more questions about this incredible ancient philosophy!
