Sarah:
Wow.  I get that you personally happen to believe in Jesus, and so
does JKR.  However, millions of people have believed in the Greek and
Egyptian gods, just as you do in yours.  I'm not sure what "other
liberators" Hans is referring to, but its entirely possible there are
still millions of people with faith in them.  Proclaiming that one's
own gods are real while all others are fictional, is a bit intolerant
and religiocentric in my personal opinion.

figure of no more or less import than Zeus, Osiris, etc.
