Europe and the bull

Is Zeus a not a good example for our contemporaries? To satisfy his whims, he would hijack the desired object and that was it!

Unfortunately, he has quite a few followers in today's world!

We mess with the minds of our youth in the ability to tell good from evil!

"Europe - in Greek mythology, a Tyrian princess and a Cretan queen, daughter of Agenor and his first or second wife - Telefassa.

She was famous for her extraordinary beauty. Zeus, having fallen in love with Europe, took the form of a beautiful snow-white bull and appeared on the meadow, the playground of Europe and her companions. Europe, seduced by the gentleness and delicacy of the bull, sat on its back. Zeus-bull took advantage of this situation to flee and did not rest until he crossed the sea and reached the wonderful cave located in Crete.

Having settled in Crete, Europe bore Zeus two sons: Minos and Radamantys. Some sources also mention a third: Sarpedon. Europe later married Asterion, king of Crete, who adopted her children, and the bull was placed by the gods in the heavens in the form of the constellation Taurus. It was worshiped. She was considered the most beautiful woman in the world."

The presented images of the kidnapping of Europe do not show that the young virgin was particularly unhappy ...
