You missed the entire point, that many ancients used this ruse of tracing family lineages back to a divinity. To cement their standing & strengthen current positions thru these divine legacies & them descending from a god. No matter how well conceived, no simple reasonable thought or thesis simply stated still manages to fly right over your head ? Or you attempting to distort & pervert that simple truth of the idea?

Zeus becomes a shower of gold raining down on Danae the mother of Perseus, that is an etherial act of spirit not a physical act of sex. We note how any referrence to the phyiscal act of sex disturbs you, much in the same way any kind of reasoned discourse does, some psychological aversion to each? Sex is a word that always makes you squirm little man, why is that?

From Perseus story we also bring in the winged white horse Pegasus which both Biblical & Koran writers include in their revelatory scribblings. Jesus comes down from the skies on him, Mohammad flies up magically on this same winged steed.

All Hellene myths, Pegaus who was a messenger of the Gods/Holy Spirits.
