One of the great things about being born in the United States is that you have freedom of religion. Being a Hellenist in America is different then being a Hellenist in Greece. In Greece they had to fight for twenty years to be declared a 'known' religion. In the United States you do have to worry about it. Being a Hellenist is easy when you live North but somewhat hard if you live in the South. Thankfully Christians don't know about Hellenism being practiced.
There are statues of the Greek gods almost everywhere, where you can leave a little something. So being a Hellenist is great here and I don't want that to change.
