They only existed when the ancient Greeks believed in them.
The Greek religion was very old, lasted well over 1000 years until it was superseded by Christianity.
They still do, for some of us and in reality.
on my behalf i would like to add in: if the gods did once exist then the would continue to exist to day. they were immortal which means continuously living. so if you believe continue to do so you never know what we Will find out in the future. i think that they are still here today. if anyone has been listinging to the things about what has been happening in Japan then who knows. i think they are still alive today other wise how would things like that still happen?? the wind?? who does the wind then start without a wind god?? a giant fan! jk. we have to know these things to predict the weather my grandfather was a weather man so i know some of these things....
any way why stop believing? think about it.. do some research bataa bing bataa boom!! there you go;
but know this: you can believe in anything you want to believe in.

∙ 13y agoThe Greek pantheon was never actually "alive." I think it's safe to say the Greco-Roman pantheon existed, in some form, from 3000BC to AD313, when Constantine I declared Christianity "tolerated." Greek mythology is undoubtedly descended from older Proto-Inod-European myths of the Skyfather and the Earthmother. Greek mythology died off after Constantine's declaration. Cults persisted afterward among certain communities: farmers, soldiers, etc. There are small revival sects today, but they are uncommon and usually not taken very seriously (I'm not passing judgment on them, just passing along others' judgment.)
