Ehm, ok.
First of these are not all Gods!

Persephone is the wife of Hades (God of the Underword) and the daughter of Ceres (Goddes of feritility) She's the Goddess of the Underworld.

Dionysus, son of Zeus himself - maternity has several versions but pobably Semele. is the God of Wine and festivities.

Perseus - not a God, but a hero - he killed the Medusa.

Helen - not a Goddess - she's the woman the Trojan war was fought over.

Mino? you mean Minos?. He was the king of Knossos. No God.

The were several Muses. See this link

Dionysus - son of Semele and Zeus - God of Wine, Civlization and Agriculture
Perseus - son of Danae - Founder of Mycenae
Helen - daughter of Zeus and Leda - Paris abducted her and started the Trojan War

Muses - daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne - They represent Epic or Heroic Poetry, History, Love or Erotic Poetry, Music and Lyric Poetry, Muse of Tragedy, Scred Songs, Choral Song and Dance, Comedy, Muse of Astronomy. There are nine muses and they each represent one function from the list.

Perseus, Helen and Minos aren't really Gods, they are heroes but they have some divine blood in them. You asked for info in the simplest form so I gave them in the simplest form. If you want more info on them there reliable websites that you can do your research from.

for as long as there has been a human race, there have been Gods and beleifs in Gods. in case you analyze slightly, you will locate that maximum folk of what Christians beleive in are rip-offs from different religions. human beings beleive in Gods and Goddesses and issues because of the fact beleiving in it provides rationalization. Why does the sunlight upward thrust and shine? because of the fact of God Why is the sky blue? because of the fact God made it blue. That way human beings do now not would desire to complication approximately what won't be in a position to be defined. Why now not take the difficult street often times? It rains because of the fact of condesation and evaporation, now not because of the fact God makes it rain.
