I reject all that you have said.
Mostly because to me it does not make any sense

It's probably because you don't understand the origins of the very religion you profess to believe in.

As a Christian I will pray for you.
That’s all I can say in response.

Well, thank you. That's mighty elitist of you, though.

You might find this an interesting supplement to the above article: The Difference Between Fallen Angels, Demons,
Aliens, Jedi, and the Watchers

" According to the Bible, the Book of Enoch, Jubilees, Jasher, and Testimony of the Twelve Patriarchs, they rebelled against God and attempted to enslave the whole world and provoke God. According to the Book of Jasher, they not only tweaked with the D.N.A. of mankind but also with the animals. They may have produced such beasts as the Pegasus, Minotaur, the unicorn, and the dinosaurs."

This thread has really entertained me; I think we've just entered a new phase of this discussion.

Aliens who looked JUST LIKE white human beings.

Jedi, refers to all of the fallen angels who have ever rebelled against the Lord and were cast out of heaven.

So are Sith actually proper angels then? Is God a Darth?

(Zeus is) a man or person to the extent the story wants him to be, and is clearly far more human/knowable a deity in most versions than the more transcendental pantheons/monotheisms we've had of late. If he's capable of all basic human emotions, including love, just as Hera and Strife are capable of other emotions, albeit in childlike manners (and the Greek gods as childlike beings throwing emotional tantrums goes right back to Homer), then he can be talked about as if, for all intents and purposes, he is a 'person' -- the frame of reference of a character which we can identify with/perceive emotions similar to those which human beings experience within clearly locates the gods of Wonder Woman as this type. Or else Wonder Woman is half 'un'-person and can barely be talked about in these terms, or even Hermes or Hera, which this story so far has clearly shown not to be the case. Rather, I think the success of mythology in this new iteration is treating it like Gaiman treated the Endless in Sandman.

Exactly. Zeus may be, to quote Pratchet, the anthropomorphic personification of a phenomenon or concept, but within the context of the book he is a real character.

Of course you can argue that he is not accountable for any of his action because as King of the Gods he is a law unto himself, but that is merely to say he is a selfish dictator. Zeus rules by virtue of his greater power, not his particular wisdom, and if he takes his pleasure as and where he desires with no concern for the freedom of his subjects then the term selfish seems to apply.

No, I'd interpret this to mean that the Sith were created to be the rivals of the Jedi; God is not Darth; God is more like the Force mentioned in Star Wars; or that we’re talking about rival factions of fallen angels, Satan and his angels, versus the Watcher angels.
