    The Greek form of that name was Herakles, and he's far from being the only child Zeus had by a mortal. If you want a Christ parallel try Dionysos, who was not only the son of Zeus, he was begotten on a virgin and in his worship you drink his blood in the form of wine and his body in the form of bread.

    Prometheus much more resembles Jesus, Zeus very much resembles the Old Testament dictator.
