“Medusa, so they say, was a beautiful young woman who was taken and ravished by the sea god Poseidon.”7 “Ravished?” “Unfortunately for her this took place on the floor of a temple sacred to the goddess Athena. She was so angry at the sacrilege that she punished Medusa.” “She didn’t punish Poseidon?” “The gods don’t punish each other, at least not very often. They punish us.”
