Prometheus: He Was Punished Forever for Loving Humanity

Somewhere in Greek mythology, there's a punishment so cruel the gods designed it to never end. Not for a crime against them — for a kindness to us. This is the full story of Prometheus, the Titan who stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity, and paid for it with an eternity chained to a mountain, an eagle returning every single day to tear open his side. If you've seen the Short about the eagle that came for him every day — this is everything behind it. Would you make the same trade Prometheus did, knowing exactly what it would cost you?
