Just read up about them all and Athena seems to be the best one.
If I was to choose to be one of the greek gods though it would be Dionysus, I've heard he inspired Jim Morrison and Iggy Pop, must be a good life to just drink yourself to death and party all the time then be reborn.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

Unlikely, if Aphrodite found Ares more satisfying than him. I wonder what that girls' problem was? 
Aries whined,. Whine, whine, whine. Whimp.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Hecate seems rather interesting from what I've read. Too bad there many myths involving her.

One of my sisters and I were both named after Greek Gods.
It goes without saying that we were both huge disappointments to the family.
But I bet Dionisus couldn't do loop the loop on the yoyo like I could!

I'm torn between Dagmar, the God Of Variable Rate Mortgages, and Ramona, the Goddess Of Humidity And Ranch Dressing.

Dionysus. God of merriment. And no, Hades wasn't evil. Mainly because he's in charge of all souls, good and evil. You either go to tartarus, or the Elysian Fields. No mortal goes to Olympus.

I mean according to the mythology. Yes we can go to the top of Olympus (And if you really have been there then that's pretty cool). Just like we've been above the clouds and seen there is no dome on which Yahweh's throne sits.
