Even though Greece is a predominately Christian Orthodox country, there are some people in this country who still believe in the 12 Gods of mount Olympus, deriving from Greek Mythology. According to unofficial sources they amount to a couple of hundreds and present themselves as members of the unofficial so-called "Greek Religion". This is a mixture of beliefs that combine paganism, the idea of spiritual connection with nature and a kind of fixation to the Ancient Greek ideals. Over the past decades they have founded various different groups, the oldest and most popular among them being the "Greek Naionals High Commissioned Council (GNHCC) - Υπατο Συμβούλιο Ελλήνων Εθνικών," founded 30 years ago.

  • If you think your god is real, why can't they believe their god is real. None of you can't even prove he's real anyways so let them worship Zeus and his buddies.

    • Yep. Greece has cut the roots (except for those people) from the old religion. Islam had nothing to do with Greece after the Turks got kicked out of the peninsula and they were more or less eradicated during the Greek revolution in the 1820's. Islam is now recognized because of a small Islamic minority that still lives close to the border with Turkey and that stayed in Greece due to a convention (after its last expansion and dispute with the Turkish). Finally, these days there are lots of muslin immigrants in Greece.

Jesus doesn't want a religion..it's the Greek Romans who created it. Christianity means followers of the Jewish messiah. Christ in Greek means in English is Messiah/to.follow the Jewish messiah.... It's funny though because the Romans are the one who killed Jesus because they don't believe that he is a Jewish messiah but later after 300 years in 300AD they accepted Jesus as Messiah while the Jews rejected Jesus as their very own messiah (defender, saviour)

British colonized us and tried to convert few people into Christians. They did fail to consume our country and make it another Egypt, Persia(where they are just Wannabe-Arabs in the country) or Greece. Persians had their own religion, Zoroastrianism. We rarely have people who believe in Norse mythology or Greek mythology. It's good to see Greeks trying to protect their culture.

  • I am Serbian, of distant Greek origin, and all since late high school, I have considered myself very close to the beliefs of the Greek Pantheon. When I lived in Canada, I was filling a form, a questionnaire. I had to circle the religion I belonged to. There were many world's religions listed. And there was the option "Other" with an empty line. I circled "Other" and wrote "Greek Pantheon" in the empty line. That was in 2003. I am so happy to see that this now really exists. I am so proud of my Greek origin.

Nor can it be doubted that he has thrown together under the one head of 'children of Shem' the Assyrians (Asshur), the Syrians (Aram), the Hebrews (Eber), and the Joktanian Arabs (Joktan), four of the principal races which modern ethnology recognizes under the heading of `Semitic.' Again, under the heading of `sons of Ham,' the author has arranged `Cush', i.e., the Ethiopians; `Mizraim,' the people of Egypt; `Sheba and Dedan,' or certain of the Southern Arabs; and `Nimrod,' or the ancient people of Babylon, four races between which the latest linguistic researches have established a close affinity" (Rawlinson's Hist.

    • @@exposeevil5492 From Wikipedia. "As Christianity spread across the Roman world, it carried the idea that all people were descended from Noah. But the tradition of Hellenistic Jewish identifications of the ancestry of various peoples, which concentrates very much on the East Mediterranean and the Near East (described below), became stretched and its historicity questioned. Not all Near Eastern people were covered, and northern peoples important to the Late Roman and medieval world, such as the Celtic, Slavic, Germanic, and Nordic peoples were not covered, nor were others of the world's peoples, such as sub-Saharan Africans, Native Americans, and peoples of Central Asia, the Indian subcontinent, the Far East, and Australasia. A variety of arrangements were devised by scholars in order to make the table fit, with for example the Scythians, who do feature in the tradition, being claimed as the ancestors of much of northern Europe." The Bible has nothing to do with Indo-Europeans inherently. Traditional Greek gods are descendants of Proto Indo-European gods and religion. The Bible may get the recordings of some Caucasoid peoples right, but no, it does not get all of them, and it by no means anticipated the Indo-European theory. And I've never seen anyone equate "Asiatic" with "Aryan".

I’ve been studying the societies of Ancient Sparta & Athens and have been loving every bit of it. I think this documentary mainly should’ve been focusing on their practices and beliefs rather than the politics about it.

    • I think it's because the theological foundation of Christianity is built around exclusivity of their god, that any other divine being is an imposter and is misleading people to damnation. The irony is that, in my opinion, what a lot of what Christians believe in, like an afterlife, Heaven, where there is beauty and peace with those who came before, justice, mercy, honor, family, have roots in pre-Christian theology and philosophy of the soul. Many Christians don't understand that their forebears were not "wicked" or "immoral", but good people who admired their native faiths, faiths with very similar ethical values that were not only similar to them, but directly influenced the religion they practice; even the name God is derived from Deus (Latin God) = Dyeus (Proto-Indo-European )= Diwe = Zeus (or Tiwaz in Proto-Germanic, Dias in Thracian, Dei in Illyrian, Dyaus in Sanskrit), Divo in Slavic, ect. When Abrahamic faiths spread across Europe, the missionaries ensured the European gods and goddesses, including the god of the heavens, Deus, in particular, morphed into a different personas, God for Deus, and the other deities as saints. Today, the brainwashing is heavier in most Christian denominations to dislike European culture, and myths in particular.

We kept our traditions alive, and an ancient Greek dialect known as Griko is still spoken today in some towns of Salento, and in some towns of Calabria too. Unfortunately, we lost our ancestral religion, but as a true southern italian I'm still interested to worship my true gods.

The people of today are following in the footsteps of their ancestors and continuing their traditions and faith. It should not have to be said but i shall say it nonetheless,😂 the same way how people who follow abrahamic faiths truly believe and feel about their own religion, others (Hindu, Greek, Norse, Egyptian, etc) will also feel the same way about theirs and will have strong unyielding faith aswell.

I am neither white, nor Pagan, and quite far from a racist. as for past being better because it's pagan , it isn't exactly the thing, it's more like past being better, because, they wouldn't be mistreated for following the religion of their own ancestors in their own ancestral land by their own people just like Zoroastrians of Iran. How is Paganism racist? I don't get it really, Are Japanese racist for following Shinto? Are Indians racist for being Hindu? Are Chinese racist for following Taoism? And if someone did think past was better because it was pagan ,really, doesn't make it a thinking unique to pagans as plenty of evangelicals think the same of Christianity and the present and they are also well known for being truly racist.

    • You are Greek, but are your born in Greece? Because I believe you are born in the US and the Greeks in the US are unnecessarily traditional and have confused many things. For example, if you know any Greek at all, you and your family would know very well that the religion never said "believe and don't question anything", it says "believe or not (believe), question everything", the difference is that it cannot be translated very well in english and there's a comma in the sentence that changes the whole meaning (πιστευε και μη, ερευνα VS πιστευε και μη ερευνα). Only old and uneducated people still believe that they shouldn't question everything. I have no reason to defend religion, i am an atheist myself, born in Greece in a time that the society is changing everyday, but I hate it when atheists complain everyday as if they are born in a theocracy. In my honest opinion, these are the people that would rather complain to strangers, instead of doing something to change the society one step at a time, starting from their family. For me, you are part of the problem, religion or atheism is a personal thing, nobody can force you, you have a choice, you are born in free country (either that is Greece or the US) and you can believe in god, allah, the spaghetti monster, satan or science. I chose science, my parents chose science, my boyfriend chose science, my close friends chose science and nobody in our society gives a crap.

    • I do not want to judge these people nor I would actually consider them that their pagan religion is actually the cause of this. But the truth is. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life my friends. You see, when did you ever seen Poseidon in actual person? No one, Zeus? Hades? etc? No one. You need to stop worshipping false gods and false prophets in order to go to heaven. Jesus died for us on the cross and rose again in the third day according to scripture. There are also lots of Christian philosophers that can tell you that Jesus actually is the key because, no one cannot see God nor can communicate with him because you do not have connection with God. That is the problem. And anyone who says there is no such thing as God. Look, this is my proper script. You either ignore it or respect it. I respect what you believe, but in my thoughts you are believing in wrong prophecies, wrong gods, wrong religion and most importantly not showing true love. God is love, the judge and most importantly he understands people where they come from. Not to mention he heals the sick, poor. We cannot see him because like we said he does not force people to what they should believe or what they shouldn't that is why Jesus is the God of love. The son of God.

I’m getting help for mental illness, I feel happier, my grades are improving and i’m becoming more motivated to stay healthy. The practice has lead me to so much comfort and for me was much better than atheism. I recommend to anyone to try spirituality if it sparks their interest. Its hard to believe starting out.

    • ***** Ancient Greeks believed that the gods could take any form at will, and could take the form of animals and other people, and they would take the form of animals to give birth to other entitires etc etc. This means by definitiion that they did not have one form but many. And that makes the humanoid form either a way to personify them, or a form that the gods used more often than the other forms. However, I have read that many things were figurative. For example the 12 gods lived in mound Olympus, and they named the highest mountain in Greece Olympus. But they named many mountains as Olympus. So which one did they mean? Where did the gods live? The answer is that it was figurative. Olympus was a place but no certain place. The same is with the forms. It was a personification just like mount Olympuses, any of them, were "personifications-materialisations" of a place. And there is a river Aherontas in Greece which was supposed to take you to the underworld. But you can walk around it! That was also figurative. Christians would try to degrade the ancient Greek religion as if it was that silly and stupid, to show the new religion's higher value. It was the old differentiation thing, to market something, only in this case through false and bad counteradvertising of the enemy-competitor.

    • innosanto I can partly agree with you. First of all Mount Olympus is/was one in whole Greece and in its history. Maybe Gods' mount Olympus was a figurative place like you say, like heaven. 2nd of all Christianism in many ways is even more rediculous than Dodekatheon.

    • It's better for most Norse Heathens to keep our beliefs to ourselves because the in-fighting between the various Norse Heathen organizations has reached a point where they all say they're "the true church of Norse Heathens" while denouncing all the others as heretics. Thankfully they don't have that problem amongst the Greek polytheists in Greece because they only have one organization, and being so close to actual ancient religious sites, and access to more academic literature, they don't have to improvise as much. The Poseidon ceremony where they sing hymns, and make offerings of bread, and other food falls into the Hindu idea of prasad, where you put out the offerings on the altar, have a cathartic experience, then you take back parts of the offerings, and consume them in a kind of "holy communion." Of course, the experience is very similar in blots, and sumbles.

In the Qur'an, the book that also tells people to forcibly convert or kill people who don't believe in the same shite as you belive in, paganism has been here since the dawn of civilization, it's what came first, the form of faith and spiritual expression that comes most naturally to humans, it teaches us to respect nature when we're outside in the beautiful sorrounding performing our rituals, through those same rituals it teaches us the value of giving to receive, it fills up our spiritual vessels making us happier and more fulfilled people and if there is something that is applied to the entire human race it's the pagan/natural way of viewing the world around us all.

    • Both yes and no, i see some value in a religion being older mainly that it's what comes most naturally to humans that would be practiced first and no because people can still come up with new and better ideas over time, but i see it this way, that you take the old and natural as a template for how a human lives best and then you add in new things as time passes, much like any religion evolves naturally over time when new ideas come, but i guess it's really mostly a matter of perspective.
