Xenophanes name is singular and has an 's' on the end. To create the possessive, use Xenophanes's (or Xenophanes' is ok, too).
It's six up and a half-dozen down. The rejection of the universalization of the particular is merely being spoken of in different terms. The gods of Xenophanes and the gods of Nietzsche are very different - so I would recommend against bringing Nietzsche's abjuration of god into the comparison.
"Xenophanes name is singular and has an 's' on the end. To create the possessive, use Xenophanes's (or Xenophanes' is ok, too)." Or just go greek - Xenaphanou.
Horses and such would still pick a human god I think. The most likely explanation for the cosmos if one buys something as improbably as a designing intellectual being, is something more like man.
I suspect that they would believe in the coming of horse messiah, with more human like attributes, who would ultimately vanquish the humans and their god.
Call me when you get up to David Hume, which is when philosophy starts to get interesting.
I doubt that.
