If you hear the name Brad Pitt, your mind probably immediately goes straight to either one of two things: that hot guy from Oceans 11 or the whole Jennifer Aniston/Angelina Jolie scandal. All sarcasm aside, Brad Pitt is one of the sexiest men alive and has a way with the ladies, but he also is a man with a generous heart.

For thousands of years, people have believed in all kinds of different gods to explain the different meanings of life, and one of the most interesting religions is Greek mythology. At the center of Greek mythology is the pantheon of gods who were said to live on Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece. From up above, they ruled every aspect of human life.
