Question

In the Polynesian myth, the heroic god Tane spent time among the humans and became close to them. Meanwhile, the god Atea was battling for power with Tane. In order to help Tane, the thunder god, Fatutiri, gave Tane the gift of the power of lightning. He set one condition, though: Tane was not to use it against Atea until Atea was old. Tane kept his promise, and waited until Atea was gray-haired. At that time, the gods Tane and Atea battled in a fire-making contest. Using the lightning, Tane won; his fires couldn’t be extinguished. Tane killed the god Atea, but set Atea’s spirit free. After this battle, fire was given to humans as a gift because it had been made stable.

The Greeks believed in gods and goddesses who, they thought, had control over every part of people's lives. The Ancient Greeks believed that they had to pray to the gods for help and protection, because if the gods were unhappy with someone, then they would punish them. The gods are biased towards humans. When lucky, a god may take a liking towards a human and try to make sure that they succeed. On the other, when a god doesn't like a human they will do almost anything to make sure that the human's life is miserable.
