We may find out thousands or even a million years from now, when our technology is more advanced than now. Maybe he's real, maybe he's not. As of right now, we'll probable never know.

Yes, Poseidon represents a pagan religion long since destroyed and forgotten about. Greek pagan beliefs were destroyed yet carried on by the Romans, who later obliterated paganism through Christianity. Rome accepted Christianity as is "official religion". Yet, Poseidon represents the same thing he represented in Greek times, as more and more people turn away from Christianity...the pagan gods may take back the religious throne, or maybe the true religion will come to play.
Amphitrite, a nymph and ancient sea-goddess, daughter of Nereus and Doris.
Poseidon was powerful, decisive, competitive, and dignified. It was very important to stay on his "good side", for he was also moody and irascible, quick to take offense, and made a hobby out of taking his revenge out on those who angered him.
In greek mythology, Poseidon is the only name for him. However, later on when the Romans created Gods, Neptune is very similar to Poseidon. However, they are not the same thing. Poseidon is Greek and Neptune is Roman. Poseidon is the only name for Poseidon. Hope this helps :)
How does Poseidon assert his displeasure?
Poseidon hated his father, Cronos, for pretty good reasons if you know the story. Cronos had heard a prophecy that his sons would overthrow him and obviously he didn't want that, so he swallowed his children Hestia, Hades, Poseidon, and Demeterin that order. His wife, Rhea begged him to stop when Hera was born. But Cronos was relentless and swallowed Hera anyway. Rhea was distraught when Zeus was born and went to the oh-so-wise Metis for a solution. Metis wrapped a big rock in a blanket and told Rhea to give it to Cronos. He swallowed it down, squishing poor Hera. Zeus was instructed by Hera to run very far away. Then Cronos got very sick and puked them all up. Gross, right? Anyway Poseidon, Hades, and Zeus got back by --you guessed it--overthrowing him! And then they locked him for eternity in a cave. Obviously, some hard feelings there. And that is why Poseidon hates his father.
