BSG thoughts (yes, I know I'm lame)

I've been rewatching Battlestar Galactica, and I've decided that each of the Cylon models have been developed with the image and personality of each of the Greek gods. Now that I think of it, I can't believe the thought never occurred to me before now. The number six Cylon would be Aphrodite, and I think it would be the god Aphrodite who is appearing to Baltar. She believes in this one true God and I think that God would be Zeus. Now I just have to wonder if there is a Cylon model based off of Zeus. If there is, he hasn't been seen yet.

Once I get further in the rewatching, I will post more thoughts on which Cylon model equals which Cylon model.

Hmmm. Interesting.

So which one would be hermes? The priest guy who talks to tyrol? A "messenger" of sorts?

Dionysius we obviously haven't seen yet. The guy who talks to starbuck about the prophecies and destiny (and who was incidentally at ragnarok) would he be the god Apollo?

No. He'd be Hades because he is so focused on rivers.

Ok, that makes sense. Plus he was responsible for kidnapping starbuck during the occupation, parallel to Persephone.
