Believe it or not, there are still people who worship these gods. Actually, Greece has a minority group of about 5,000 people who still worship Zeus and the other gods/goddesses.

I know there are also some who worship Norse deities in Norway and Denmark as well, but I don't know about Ra. I assume there are still some for them, however.

Personally, I'm more inclined to like the polytheistic religions over the monotheistic ones (Mithra is an exception, however; he basically preached what Jesus preached 600 years before Jesus existed according to the Bible).

Hey, look at the bright side, it makes for a great episode of Oprah. Ol' Tom will be doing more than jumping on the couch.

I do think were making a comeback, theirs even Hellenic Polytheistic groups about in the States here.
