Historically speaking, Christians do in fact worship Zeus/Jupiter.
When the Romans forced Christianity, oops, I mean "brought," to the Empire a great deal of Roman worship and symbolism had to be converted into Christianity as well. Think of the popular image of the Christian God: Old man, big white beard, commanding figure.... sort of looks like a statue of Zeus. Not just some mystical coincidence, that's how things roll. So Zeus/Jupiter/God followers, rest assured the bearded one is watching!

Here's some FACTS about christians:
hell was created by christians - so shall they go there, to their hell!
christians have KILLED more people in the history of humanity than any other group.
christians have persecuted millions of "non-believers" just because they DIDN'T believe in "christianity!
christians are by far the most brain-washed - brain-dead believers in the world today!
Who is Zeus, anyways??? Is he the god of the jews??? lmao @ Zeus!
Here's how someone that believes in Zeus can be better than their beliefs in the "gods":
Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!
Love and Believe in Our Creator;
Love and Believe in Yourself.
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!
"religion is Spiritual fraud"; "religion is the Worse invention of humanity" - Jesus Christ, Buddha and any one else with Spiritual intelligence.

I dont believe in Zeus because he cant multi-task like God & doesnt have a book in the all time bestsellers list.
Faith supplies what the authority of the sences cant provide.

Hmm, why do I not believe in Zues?
Why don't you believe in God?
Can you answer my question in a way that cannot be reversed and applied to yours?
*EDIT*
Why did I not answer? Because you just answered it for me and for every other Christian on the site. Why ask the question when you already know the answer?
But if you insist, I don't believe in Zeus for the same reason you don't believe in God. This is the same reason that Jews don't believe Jesus is the Christ, and Druids worship nature.
Because to do otherwise would be contrary to my beliefs. It is implicit. By definition no Christian will believe in any god other than Jehova. If they did then they wouldn't be a Christian.
It's like asking, "Why don't circles have corners?" Because if it did it wouldn't be a circle. It's self evident.

If there was as much inherent logic in the greek myths then I just might, but there isn't so I don't.
I suppose I could write a loooonng answer comparing the two but, meh, I just don't feel like it. I hope you'll let me slide on this one A_Z.

I have never felt the presence of Zeus in my life.
Of course, you could respond that the presence that I believed to be God was in fact Zeus.
To which I would then take a cricket bat and proceed to pummel you about the head and shoulders.

Zues was a Persian God roughly around 1000 B.C, but different stories were found long after Christian times with a severely different twist to it. Hmmm??

Well I don't believe in Zeus because he supports higher sales taxes. But the Christian God supports lower sales taxes. so those can't be the same reasons. You must support higher sales taxes.
I'm not surprised.
