The one of the main concepts in The Creation of the Titans and the Gods, is greed and selfishness. Cronus is hungry for power and was willing to do anything to get it, including eating his own children. Cronus believes he can "fool the Fates", but he later pays for his actions when his own children wage war against him. The moral of the story is basically that being greedy usually does not end well. The Greeks seemed to believe in fate, and thought that everyone had a predetermined destiny that you can neither fight nor change.
