Sin separates us from Zeus.
Denial doesn’t change the reality.
Simply do what Zeus requires, confess your sins to Zeus, truly sorry from your heart and simply ask His forgiveness. He will, completely, even if you’ve been atheist or failed to read Plato. Then turn from your sins and turn *to* Zeus proving your repentance is real. Trust that Zeus’ herp on the derp took the punishment your sins deserved. All who do will receive eternal life and be empowered by Zeus to do what He commands. Why do you delay?
I don't think this is good advice.
If you are going to do something Zeus has told us not to, best be sneaky about it.
Waiting until the king goes off to some war is a good approach, 'cause Zeus is shore to be busy visiting the Queen.
If you do something naughty don't bring it to his attention. If you're discreet he might mutter "little scamp" and laugh, but if you point out you've defied him, well he'll be obliged to lightning bolt your ass.
