After all these centuries, Zeus may have a few thunderbolts left. A tiny group of worshippers plans a rare ceremony Sunday to honor the ancient Greek gods, at Athens' 1,800-year-old Temple of Olympian Zeus. Greece's Culture Ministry has declared the central Athens site off-limits, but worshippers say they will defy the decision.
"These are our temples and they should be used by followers of our religion," said Doreta Peppa, head of the Athens-based Ellinais, a group campaigning to revive the ancient religion.
"Of course we will go ahead with the event ... we will enter the site legally," said Peppa, who calls herself a high priestess of the revived faith. "We will issue a call for peace, who can be opposed to that?"
How can this not be a superior religion to Christianity? I mean look how many Gods they have?
They have Zeus, the father of the Gods. Ares, the god of war. Apollo, the sun god. Poseidon, God of the sea. I mean they have a God for EVERYTHING!
And you don't have to worship all of them, you an choose the one that best fits your worshipping needs. It is like going to the Starbucks of godhood. Just look at the menu and pick the one that you feel like sacrificing a lamb to that day. Simple.
You watch, it is totally going to catch on!
