Line 14:
Some believe that the Western portrayal of the Christian God is probably taken from the classic portrayal of Zeus, of the Greek Olympian religion, including his tendency of shooting lightning at people and stuff. Of course, it could also be that the portrayal of Zeus himself draws from this very human necessity of having their God look old and wise... except Zeus is more like the angry grandfather who always grounds you for not very clear reasons and sleeps with everyone except your grandma. Needless to say, this opinion is not held by the majority of those who call themselves Christians. In fact, it ''may'' be considered a '''violation''' of the Ten Commandments just attempting to portray [[God]] as a mortal creature. Oddly, the look is also comparable to [[Santa Claus]].
 
These days, odds are even that [[God]] will either be this or [[Divine Race Lift]] (if not both). Interestingly, '''Grandpa God''' seems to be treated with equal respect (by other characters) regardless of whether He is being used in a comedic or dramatic way. This is a character type that exists mainly because everyone can recognize who it is almost immediately.
 
This character usually, but not always, lives in [[Fluffy Cloud Heaven]].
