yall.

do you think Christians don’t believe in their god? or haven’t all this time? you think they slaughtered billions for a made up man in the sky?

no

they firmly truly believe(d) their god exists and is present and real. why the fuck would the ancient Greeks write all this shit down if they didn’t believe it?

Were there any specific individuals in ancient Greece who believed in the reality of their gods? How do we know about their beliefs?

Yeah, for sure—tons of people in ancient Greece actually believed the gods were real, not just stories. We know this from stuff they wrote, like hymns, plays, and even letters to the gods on little offerings. I’m a Hellenic polytheist myself, and honestly, reading their words makes it super clear they had real devotion, not just myth-making.
