The ancient Greeks had a fascinating religion which is today known as Greek mythology, since it is no longer believed in as a religion. A great deal of literature is influenced by Greek mythology. There is a very good movie currently playing in theaters (I went to see it yesterday) called Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters, which is based on Greek mythology. Many previous movies are also derived from Greek mythology; Jason and the Argonauts, etc.
Greece also contributed the Greek Orthodox Church to the more recent religion of Christianity.
Answer:
The Greek pantheon was a grotesque, fanciful phantasmagoria in which the "gods" committed every form of sin, thus "justifying" such behavior. That was their "contribution."
