Since it seems this thread has gone off the rails I suppose I can answer your questions rather quickly. I will number them so as to help you follow along.

1) Do you agree that Zeus exists as a concept, yes or no? YES
Great. The concept of Zeus exists as a concept.

Nonsense. You are claiming that if you go to Greece and climb Mount Olympus that you will find Zeus sitting in his palace hurling lightning bolts at those who displease him. Really?

Why on earth would you believe such a foolish thing?

Why would you hate an imaginary figment of an ancient mythology?

How about Sauron? Lord Voldemort? Morgoth? Unicorns? Pixies? The Nac Mac Feegle? Crom? Cthulhu?

Nope. It just opens up more. For example, is there any claimed concept of a god that you believe is not a real entity?
