  Do be careful, god of war. You have called yourself evil and vile. War is not the answer, by the way. See if you can get yourself transferred to another area of responsibility, such as god of butterflies or rainbows or something. Then, even if you remain evil and vile, you'll at least be attractive.

#metkids q&a The Metropolitan Museum of Art Can I Learn about Greek Mythology at the Met? Irén, age 9 My name is Irén, and I'm nine years old. ♪ (music) ♪ Athena She's the goddess of wisdom, and I like smart people. She's also the goddess of weaving. That's something that I really like, and that's pretty cool. Athena's the goddess of strategy and war, too, but she's not as violent as Aries, so that's why I like her better than him. Basically, Athena's a pretty cool goddess. Poseidon ♪ (music) ♪ I like Poseidon because he's the god of the seas, and he has different personalities on different days like the waves. I like that he can control the water and the oceans. Artemis ♪ (music) ♪ Artemis, I like that she's strong and that she can do archery, because I really want to take archery. I'm already taking karate, but I want to take archery. Zeus I can tell you a few things about Zeus. He can get mad really easily. He likes throwing around lightning bolts. He likes rules, but he breaks them, a lot. I think that would be very cool to see some statues or paintings of those gods. what's your #metkids question? (Irén's Mom) Super! (kissing her) ♪ (music) ♪
