Paganism, in its accepted sense, would easily include any form of worship of ZEUS, a pagan god.
Pagan is a just a defamation term used by JudeoChristianism (later evolution of Saturnian-Savaoth-Yahweh priesthoods) to describe several polytheists
cults.
It means "a man who lives in the country" because Christianism through Constantine and later Byzantine emperors such us Theodosios and others
unleashed merciless hunting of the polytheists and expeled them from the big city centers, because of the need to transfer the center of the quadruple
pole empires (a bad imitation of the proatlantian geostrategy system) to Byzantium and force a new supernational mind/body control religion .
Zeus was defamed by those priesthoods and the Saturnian priesthoods as an anthropomorphic god of envy, sexorgy, and wrath but in reality was the
proatlantian leader of the academies of science based on specific geodetic quadruple pole empires all along the prehistoric globe (pro 11.500 bc year
of appearance of Levanah & Lilith, events that later caused as a chain-reaction geological disasters such as the ice melting, the ogygus&aegis
cataclysm and the atlantis sinking). Science was then the means of understanding the universe and the respect to the individuality. Rituals, idolatry,
"Gods" favors through sacrificies and the Control Collective was the norm later imposed by other "gods" and their subordinate races & corrupt
priesthoods.
As of the proatlantian monotheism of the Self-Created Superorganism also called "the universe" I leave the BC ancient hellenistic Orfeus texts to
speak on my behalf:
Orfeas "Aposmation"-1
Mouseous, observe the one and only king-god of the world. Indeed one king-god exists, selfborn, and all that are born after are childs of this
one God. And this King-God drifts inside those childs of him. And no man sees him. But he sees everyone.
Orfeas-"Mousaion"
One is God, who sees and hears everything
Ofreas hymns to Pana
I call Pana the all mighty, the pastoral, the universe of the world, the sky the sea, the earth who is the queen of everything and the immortal fire.
Because all those are parts of the one God Pana
