No he wasn't. He was often just as heterosexually promiscuous as other Greek Gods.There is a myth involving how a young women tricked him into giving her the ability to see the future and past - in return she was meant to sleep with him. She didn't, so he made it so that while se could see what had happened, and what would happen no one would believe her. So she was trapped with a sight she couldn't use and considered mad as a result.
All the Greek Gods were bisexual actually...almost all of them atleast. Zeus certainly was.

It isn't a matter of bisexuality. It's a matter of myth. Come on, just come out of the closet. ***!It's okay, no one will hate you.
Read more Greek Mythology...not just the cleaned up versions you find in your library...the REAL myths...lol contradiction of terms.
Ne ways, you will see that bisexuality is very common in the mythos...yes, there are more Gay stories than Lesbian stories, but that is because Greek was a sexist nation; male dominated.
I have yet to hear of a story regarding Apollo as gay, but there I have never found a story confirming that Apollo was straight either. He was most likely bisexual, if anything, since most of the Greek Gods were...
Remember...bisexuality was common in Ancient Greece, and their Gods are based on thier people.

I still fail to see the relevance of Apollo to Jesus. Jesus was not the sun disk. However, that does make Apollo comparable to Aten.Isaiah 52:13 to 53:12.
It such an accruate description of Jesus that some Jewish sects have taken in out of the Bible.Psalm 16:10-11
Psalm 22:7-8
Psalm 78:1-3
Micah 5:2
Zechariah 12:10
Zechariah 13:1-7These are some that I remember that are fairly obvious and acknowledged by the Jews as being Messianic prophecies.
Look at very early Pictures of Peter......he has horns on his head......strange eh........it was he was associated with a pagan god.

My holy text was created by a thin A.I. - It preaches that humans should strive to become machines... all hail the great Cybermen! Together we shall upgrade the universe!
Where was I? Oh yes.... um you do know there are millions of books don't you? Billions. Including a lot of holy texts. Is there something special about that? The Bible is a book certainly penned by man, men who I am yet to see were divinely inspired.
Somehow I don't think you have a point.
