Stop saying that, lol. I don't know the original quote, but the way it's quoted here it has nothing at all to do with Greek gods but with the god of the Jews/Christians/Muslims. In this case, probably the Jewish god, but it applies to all of them, so who cares.
It can't apply to Greek gods a) because it's singular but without a name. Which god would he be referring to? b) no Greek god was said to be omnipotent. Quite the opposite, in fact. c) no Greek god was willing to do good for goodness' sake. Some cared about certain things and punished and rewarded according to how people behaved around these things and of course hybris had to be punished, but other than that they were lying sacks just like us humans.
But should you? Obviously they shouldn't, they claim the moral high-ground, but then pull constant BS like that.If the religious establishment can twist quotes (from their own book no less) then so can we.

It really couldn't have been and it wasn't uncommon for Greeks to worship their more regional god rather then all the gods of Greece in general. And the Greeks viewed there gods as being all powerful after a sense. That they behaved badly didn't define what they could do but what they wanted to do.

Probably your best weapon as an atheist is the hypocrisy of lots of religious people with their "wah I'm not smart enough to come up with a concrete objection so I'll just concoct some sensational propaganda-ish lies and send them in a chain letter through the do-good-er network." but if you stoop to the same levels that shoots any credibility advantage you would have out of the water.

Yet how are we organized at all? Just because we have similar thoughts we are organized which makes us a organization?
somehow I doubt it
