You know, it never said that the Greeks don't make it to the age to have a family. It's just said to be rare that they know of. How do we know that they aren't out there living as mortals? Think of all the demigods that just "disappeared." Some could still be alive and we wouldn't know because the people of CHB don't know. About your earlier comment, about the comparing two great powers, what you said is plain stupid. I'm not trying to say the Greeks are better than the Romans. I'm saying why I LIKE them better. Both sides dominated what they thought was the whole world at some point, both deserve a LOT of respect. It's an opinion and the reasons to support it. Obviously, you can't prove which civilization is better. You can only give the reasons you support one more than the other. It's based on your personal preferences. I'm not saying the Greeks are all high and mighty while the Romans are in the dirt. I'm just stating why I feel the way I do. I wasn't looking for someone to argue with me.
