Question
why did the greeks believe that their gods had perfect human forms and qualities?
a. the greeks saw humans as the measure of all things.
b. the greeks believed that god created humans in his own image.
c. the greeks worshipped their human emperors as gods.
This relates to Ancient Greek humanism and philosophical views, where humans were seen as the central measure of existence, leading to gods being depicted with idealized human traits. Option B refers to Abrahamic religious beliefs, not Greek polytheism. Option C is incorrect as Greek emperors (like those in the Hellenistic period) were not universally worshipped as gods in the same context, and this does not explain the core belief in human-like gods.
