There's good news and slightly less good news.

Bad news travels at the speed of light; good news travels like molasses.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
No one's immune to bribery.

Gods? Don't let that impress you. Anyone can be a god if they have enough worshippers. You don't even have to have powers anymore. In my time I've seen theatre gods, gladiator gods, even storyteller gods - you people see gods everywhere. Gives you an excuse for not thinking for yourselves.
God is just a word. Like Fury. like demon, Just words people use for things they don't understand. Reverse it and you get dog. It's just as appropriate.

And when you fall from that parapet,the sound you'll be hearing as you go down will be me,laughing my head off.

Well, that's history for you, folks. Unfair, untrue and for the most part written by folk who weren't even there.
