Religion Makes Me Gag Shirt
The plurality of cults and gods also induced skepticism, as with the Sophist Protagoras (c. 481–411 BCE), who was driven from Athens because he dared to question the existence of the gods. Prodicus of Ceos (5th century BCE) gave a rationalistic explanation of the origin of deities that foreshadowed Euhemerism (see below Later attempts to study religion). Another Sophist, Critias (5th century BCE), considered religion to have been invented to frighten humans into adhering to morality and justice. Plato was not averse to providing new myths to perform this same social function—as is seen in his conception of the “noble lie,” or the invention of myths to promote morality and order, in the Republic. He was strongly critical, however, of the older poets’ (e.g., Homer’s) accounts of the gods and substituted a form of belief in a single creator, the Demiurge, or supreme craftsman. This line of thought was developed in a stronger way by Aristotle in his conception of a supreme intelligence that is the “unmoved mover.” Aristotle combined elements of earlier thinking in his account of the genesis of the gods (coming from the observation of cosmic order and stellar beauty and from dreams).

Later attempts to study religionLater Greek thinkers tended to vary between the positions adumbrated in the earlier period. The Stoics (philosophers of nature and morality) opted for a form of naturalistic monotheism, whereas the philosopher Epicurus (341–270 BCE) was skeptical of religion as ordinarily understood and practiced, though he did not deny that there were gods who, however, had no transactions with human beings. Of considerable influence was Euhemerus (c. 330–c. 260 BCE), who gave his name to the doctrine called Euhemerism—namely, that the gods are divinized humans. Although Euhemerus’s own argument was based largely upon fantasy, there are certainly some examples, both in Greek religion (e.g., Heracles) and elsewhere, of the tendency to make humans into gods, but it is obviously not universal.
