What's this ancient Greek religion called?

I saw it on "Clash of the gods" a few days ago. It has something to do with this "cult" as they call it. They are obsessed with death and believe that the underworld is peace....something like that. They say that when you join your members show you this path that leads to this place that is like heaven or the underworld..IDK. All they do is party and have a good time. It's some kind of -ism. The episode I saw it on was the one titled "Hades". Like the god of the underworld. Please help me. It sounded something like "medulism" But I dont know if that's even close to the correct name. It was on the History channel. THEY WERE A VERY SECRET CULT. I tried the History channel website, and nothing. It would help if you listed a whole bunch of ancient Greek religions.

perhaps Pantheism?  Google Pantheism and see if that is it.

"Pantheism" will not help. The word means 'many gods' essentially.

ALL religions are obsessed with death, in the sense that they all pretend to have knowledge of what comes after. This is nonsense. They do NOT know.

I can't help but wonder about your interest: academic?

The ancient Greeks are long gone. What is the relevancy?

The history channel has a website. The answer may be there.

Are you taling of the pyramid building PHARO's (sp) ???    Maybe they actually created it.  They did believe in accention or in our words, the spirit/soul goint to a higher existence ( which should be heaven I think) , so as I was saying in alot of writeing I did. There doea seem to be a negitive, and positve to everything, and the impartial (ground or maybe odd) one in between the two. I call it the IMPARTIAL (you know) a JUDGE type, that decides of which way something goes...And , as I seen in a big bang theory show, they do point out a sort of positive & negitive , and then an oddity they cannot really explain, to set of creation of the universe, creating normal and anti (whatevers) explosive effects, that created the whole shabang, and black holes  /mysterious stuff...And I do think we have three side to us all, positive, negitive, and the impartial, and this all seems to fit together on a grand scale...Hey, now I remember a bit. the electrons, a pos. - a neg. and one that just was haywire and changed between the two , to set things off. basically, that is what I understood from this history channel show... And I do think it was GOD him/its self, being both neg. , pos. and the , hmmm lets say FUSE, to get everything booming...I AM not the expert on this, but it is what they were saying, in lamen (sp) terms...  Of course, the scientists try to dismiss GOD, but they will find out that sciebce and GOD are the same thing, when they grow up that is...There is a different tune comming from scientist now, with GOD and all, and they are starting to see the truth, but there will allways be the jealous sceptics right, all high and might they think of themselves, and just happens to be one of the seven deadly sins, which is called PRIDE!!!

Everything WILL!!! fit together, jsut keep an open mind till nov.13, 2012 . One thing for sure , that all people have whittnessed over time, and that is that science seems to keep changeing their minds on things, we have all seen it. How long age, was it that they figured out the world was round, and that we actually orbited the sun, not vice-versa, so don't throw all your trust mans way... they are learning that GOD exists, but there is much more they do not know...And they continue to put their foot in their mouths, well, the PRIDEFULL ones anyway...

Belonging,

I have not researched for an answer, but there is something I want to address about your question, the word "Hades," and "secret cult."

Hollywood and any research of things on any venue of communication can only be taken with an open mind [not believed as absolute true] when it comes to a presentation on any topic, nonetheless here is my response.

Just from the stand point of Hades and secret cult, a dramatized script has its origin in Satanism and the Oc-cult. “Occult” means secret, so anything that is secret is an occult. A cult is a variation of an Orthodox belief, i.e. Mormonism and Jehovah Witness is a cult of Biblical Christianity; some in these religious beliefs say they believe Jesus to be the Savior, but there doctrines do not totally line up with Biblical Christianity, therefore they are not Christian they are cults. If these two examples where secret religious groups they would be classified as occults.

One of the big pushes for Hollywood movie making is to push Satanism and occults. As the day of antichrist approaches, Satan is using the communication airways, to desensitize the hearts of the masses of humanity concerning what is descent and moral virtue, to prepare for the coming degenerate policies of Antichrist. A true Holy Spirit filled Christian can see this is happening all around us and it is escalating.
