The Hindu religion has over 330 million gods, though some gods are avatars of the main gods. I think the Hindu religion is much cooler than the Greek religion for this and several reasons. But yeah, I guess the Greek pantheon is pretty nice.

I thought I would throw this in extra.
There are old writings like Berosus who said that various Greek deities were once kings and leaders who had lived but were deified while they were ruling or after they died.
Examples below:
Ouranos / Uranus = Noah
Ra = Nimrod, Nama-Urud, Nmrd, Mrd, Marduk, Gilgamesh, Hammurabi, Amraphel, and a few other names
Zeus = Jupiter, Osiris, Mizraim
Hercules = Lehabim, and a few other names
Kronos = Ham
Old writings list the burial place of Zeus. They also say Hercules was buried in Spain.

The Greeks, Romans, Native Americans, Hindus, Pagans, Egyptians... It wasn't just the Greeks.

yes because it gave a sense of life and respect to all living forms. Now days we dont care about many things, like the miracle of the sun coming out every morning.

Yes, I love it.
As the great Mel Brooks said in "History of the World Part I":
"The Christians are so poor... They are so poor, that they only have one God."

Sure. In the Shinto faith in Japan, literally everything has a spirit, rocks, trees, hills, you name it.
