Homer and the gods of the iliad-belief or impiety


Question:

Homer and the Gods of the Iliad: Belief or Impiety?

Later civilizations disapproved of Homer because "he told lies about the gods." Look in Book 21 for some of these "lies." List and describe several of them in detail as they are presented by Homer. Do you think Homer actually believed in gods such as he sang about? If so, do you think he was being impious to his gods? Why or why not?
