Don't Call It A Comeback....

    It's pretty inevitable that at some point during the day you'll fall down the rabbit hole that is Youtube. That was me a few hours ago. I tripped and fell into the Youtube vortex but this time, instead of finding kitten and prank videos, I discovered this gem from the people at Vice. It's fascinating and worth the watch. Also, check out Vice when you have the time. They're offering great new programming and there isn't a Kardashian in sight.


  The Greeks Who Pray to Zeus: VICE INTL (Greece)


"Even though Greece is a predominately Christian Orthodox country, there are some people in this country who still believe in the 12 Gods of mount Olympus, deriving from Greek Mythology. According to unofficial sources they amount to a couple of hundreds and present themselves as members of the unofficial so-called "Greek Religion". This is a mixture of beliefs that combine paganism, the idea of spiritual connection with nature and a kind of fixation to the Ancient Greek ideals. Over the past decades they have founded various different groups, the oldest and most popular among them being the "Greek Nationals High Commissioned Council (GNHCC) - Υπατο Συμβούλιο Ελλήνων Εθνικών," founded 30 years ago."
