How can you believe that there is no Zeus without first believing there is a Zeus? A person can't say that they dont believe without acknowledging that Zeus exists

LOL I did answer it. It just amazed me how this can make sense in the opposite tense to a Christian but they get lost when you turn it around on them. Simply amazing.

I get your question and answer even though it is a little vague. The answer has always been the same no matter how many ways you play with this question, no man can convince you of God. God must call you Himself and awaken your spirit. Why should you believe in God, unless he has called you. Why ponder this unless He has called you and you have choose to harden your heart. That is your choice; however why ask questions of the supernatural if you don't believe there is more to life then just this and then death.

Zeus is another name for God, but he is the God of the Greeks, and when the Greeks were in Power they forced their God upon the world, But Christians Believe in another name for God; and that name is Jesus Christ or Lord Jesus Christ, but that name is not forced upon others. Then Organized religion came along and started forcing Jesus upon everybody, but this is not the same Jesus as the Bible teaches; 2 Corinthians 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
And the world followed after this new Jesus; Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Most people KNOW of Zues due to the fact that mythology is taught in grade school.
I don't understand your comment on believing a Zues.........believing what?
As I said.............mythology.
Mythology literally means the (oral) retelling of myths – stories that a particular culture believes to be true and that use the supernatural to interpret natural events and to explain the nature of the universe and humanity.
In modern usage, "mythology" is either the body of myths from a particular culture or religion (as in Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology or Norse mythology) or the branch of knowledge dealing with the collection, study and interpretation of myths, also known as mythography.

I've seen Zeus. He used to be on television alot, didn't he?
He and his wife Hera had a son, Hercules...but the Lord of the Dead had his minions make him mortal...
It was a good cartoon, I enjoyed it very much.

Good point. However, the "pagan" gods represented forces of nature. And some of the "lesser" gods were actually people who had been deified.
I know that a lot of my fellow Christians are going to disagree with me on this, but how can there be "no other gods before God" if there are no other gods? I believe there ARE other gods. However, I don't acknowledge them by name (anymore), nor do I worship them.

Zeus came after Jesus's death.
Zeus was a god created and a mythical creation.
There is proof that Jesus actually existed, there is none about Zeus.

That's silly. Say you and I are in a room together. I say to you, "Look at that pink elephant next to you." Clearly there is no elephant in the room, so you say, "What pink elephant in the room? There is no pink elephant in the room." Based on your hypothesis above, there is a pink elephant in the room because I said there was and you denied it. You must have first believed there was a pink elephant in the room to say that there isn't one. Your logic does not hold up.

ROTFLMAO!
The Xtian willful ignorance and denial is hilarious! Amazingly, they all "fail" to recognize one of their own favorite "arguments".
Stupid? Fallacious? Vague? LOL! Self-revelation, friends.

You've done a nice job of generalizing. Why don't you just respond to the person who posted the original question.
