The Greek government has a very silly approach to this. Considering their economy, if this type of religion became more widespread and accepted it would be a boon for their tourism. Imagine the tourists flock to the ancient temples to see the very rituals they used to hold there.

Hell yeah! I want to go to the temple of Poseiden and Dionysus and sit around in togas, also the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleusinian_Mysteries sounds awesome. THAT would make tourism in Greece something that would stand out from anything around.
