Faith of the gods

I see that both Oedipus and Antigone are the same base on fact of what Mary wrote about, “they have no control over their faith.” They both tried to challenge the gods. Oedipus tried to ran away from the killing his father and being with his mother and where did that put him, killing his father and having two daughters with his father (awkward). Creon challenged Teiresias prophecy about burying his brother and releasing Antigone. Both men had power and thought that they do anything. They believe that what ever they said was their way, but the men were under the watch of the gods. What shocks me the most is how Creon, above all people, did not think about his consequences. We know that Creon is very reasonable man and knew better then to face the gods from Oedipus but it goes to show you “power will corrupt the mind.” I think if we read anymore Greek plays that have tragic heroes, we will find someway how the tragic hero will fall at the mercy of the gods.
