So in class the other day my teacher talked about how Jimmy Carter pulled the US out of the 1980 Olympics. And that really bothered me... Back in Ancient Greece, entire wars would stop for the Olympics, and now they can just be cancelled over a diplomatic spat? It's sad that the Olympics have totally lost their original purpose -- to honor Zeus.
What are your guys' thoughts on the subject?
Personally, I think I'll have some kind of special offering to Zeus during the opening ceremonies, just to respect the ancient tradition.
Indeed it is. a very unknown "thing", but hey, we try XD Hellenic Polytheism is the modern term for the religion practiced in Ancient Greece. Anything in particular you would like to know?
