> you don't see anyone worshiping Jupiter anymore.

You're not looking hard enough.

Religio Romana, Nova Roma, Movimento Tradizionale Romano.

And yes, the Egyptian, Greek, Slavic and Celtic pantheons have established worshippers as well. Even the old paganism of Canaan has followers.

To each their own.

Personally, I worship Seia who minds the corn while it is still underground. When it begins to germinate, I pray to Proserpina. Nodotus gets my prayers when the first stalks appear and Voluntina when the sheaths and ears begin to show. When the sheath opens, I pray to Patelana, but as soon as they all stand at equal lengths, I turn to Hostilina. When it's in flower, I pray to Flora, of course and to Lacturnus when it's full of milk. I then turn to Matuta when it's ripening and later Segetia so that it will be safe until the harvest. Runcina gets my prayers when it is ready to be removed from the soil and after it's harvested, I worship Tutilina, who watches over it in the barn.

These modern pagans who worship "Jupiter", "Thor", or "Woton" are amateurs...
