The wise is one only. It is unwilling and willing to be called by the name of kurupetos.

Ignorance is not bliss. :lol:

gods
Heraclitus talks about gods in the plural at many places, and these reference seem to be towards the traditional Olympian gods. Heraclitus said that war made some things gods and others men. Either his theology was not consistent (which is a possibility), or else he believed that the traditional gods are somehow less than his Divine God. Perhaps the Olympian gods are all just aspects of the one God (see B15). This would explain why the Fire/God/λόγος would be willing and unwilling to be called Zeus (B32): on the one hand, his God would be at the top of the world order; but on the other, it would not be the same as the Olympian conception of Zeus.
