I mean, I get why because many people have stopped believing in the Greek Gods a long-time ago. But there is still a wide margin of people today that still believe the Greek gods and their stories genuinely happened (some people take them as symbolic). Like with Hellenism, a Morden revival of the Greek gods. How come Krishna for example doesn't get treated the same as Zeus under the mythological category?

In general, we follow what reliable, scholarly sources say. In this case, the vast, vast majority of sources about Zeus discuss him in the context of ancient Greek religion and mythology. If there were a large body of scholarship discussing the role of Zeus in a modern religion such as Hellenism, then it might be WP:DUE to mention that prominently, but there isn't. –Michael Aurel (talk) 14:01, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
