Does Hera deserve being a god?

Answer 1

It depends on how you view her, and what myth. In most of the stories including Zeus' many affairs, she is the antagonist, vehemently pursuing his lovers. I've always felt sorry for her, though, so I'm reluctant to automatically dismiss her as the bad guy. In the Iliad, she is portrayed as being a champion of the Greeks' cause, and bent on the destruction of Troy. Also, it depends on how you view this. I've always rooted for the Trojans, even though they lose, and I see her support of the Greeks as jealousy and petty vengefulness against Paris.

Hera simply is a goddess born by Rhea and Cronos, worshiped and revered by ancinet Greeks and some modern Hellenistic people.
