It Passive Voice (consider revising) that the gods created the earth for the mortals but declined them from ever treading on mount Olympus. I my opinion I do not think they should be allowed because, mount Olympus was not made for them to roam too many events were taken place there. Such as in the bible with Adam and Eve god made the garden for them, but forbid them forever eating from a certain tree; the same rules apply. Mount Olympus was a place for only the gods. It was said that mount Olympus were Zeus (King of the gods) thrown was placed and that Zeus, Hera (Mother/Earth goddess) and all their children found comfort upon that mountain. To me it would be the same as a numerous amount of strangers always coming to your house and always asking you for something different with every hour they stay with you .If the mortals were allowed it should be a place where they can be worshiped. In addition, the gods believed that the mortals spoiled the earth in which they created for them. With the constant “Troubles”, mortals prevail upon the mountain they could dismantle the secrecy in which the mountain stands for. However, on the other hand if the mortals can make it to mount Olympus without any help from the gods then the choice is theirs. It would only be fair that the mortals get the choice to go, but through certain obstacles to get there. If they going to the top of mount Olympus were what their heart truly desires then a few obstacles would just spice things up. My strong belief remains that the mortals should not be allowed on mount Olympus. To me it would be the same as letting mortals into heaven before they died.
