Five Reasons Vicitur is Greater Than The Roman Gods
1. Vicitur is devoted to the Roman people and their well being. He has proven his devotion time and again by healing and providing good fortune to his followers. Unlike the Roman Gods, he has never exacted revenge against his followers for any reason. Vicitur is a loving and compassionate god that brings nothing but happiness to his followers
2. He takes fewer sacrifices and prayers but returns more good to his followers. All Roman Gods require frequent and elaborate sacrifices made to them that are time consuming and costly. Vicitur requires only one minor sacrifice made to him every month and he will answer any prayer or request made to him with the utmost wisdom.
3. One does not have to pray to different gods for different blessings, one only has to pray to Vicitur for any matter that arises because he is the only god. This is the advantage of a monotheistic god. Less time is wasted on figuring out which gods to pray to and more time is spent praying to the god.
4. Whether eating dinner at the villa, relaxing at the thermae, or strolling through the via, one simply has to send Vicitur a prayer and he will answer swiftly and with sincerity. On the other hand, a roman God, such as the belligerent and arrogant Mars, will not even respond to his believers unless they pray to him from a designated location. Truly only a selfish Roman god would act this way.
5. Unlike the Roman Gods, Vicitur is very forgiving. He does not require that rituals or sacraments be performed to the T, he simply requires that the effort is made to contact him. Jupiter on the other hand will not respond to his followers unless they do exactly as he has said. If a follower of Jupiter were to make even one minor mistake, Jupiter would deny them of his help.

ReplyDeleteI now truly believe that Vicitur is in fact better than the Roman Gods. Very persuasive! However, from which area did Vicitur originate?
ReplyDeleteI like how you formatted this, it is very straightforward and informational. I also like your first picture, but I would label it to explain what it is depicting. I'm confused as to why you included the red thumbs down though... Also, where is your product?
ReplyDeleteI'm a little confused as to who Vicitur is. Maybe you clarified it in your project, which I did not see. Nevertheless, I agree with you in saying that, as a superior power, he is better than the Roman gods. I was reading a book on Greek mythology and was quite amused by how human the gods were. Their character attributes have very human-like flaws. This leads them to have very human-like mistakes. Does anyone agree with me, that this is more effective than having a "perfect" God who is the farthest thing from humans? Is it easier to respect a divinity that are more like you? Or, is it better to strive to be a GOD?
ReplyDeleteI found the formatting was a little awkward, which made it hard to follow. Overall very convincing and gave relevant information. I would have maybe liked to know a little bit more about Vicitur, possibly this is in your project. Though I did not find any link readily accessible to your project to reference... Is your project an object?
