Answer Details

In Acts 17:22-23, Paul told the Athenians that they were very religious because he noticed that the city was full of idols and symbols of religious devotion. He observed that they even had an altar dedicated to an "unknown god," which indicated that they were open to acknowledging the existence of higher powers beyond the ones they knew about. Additionally, the epicurean and stoic philosophers in Athens were always discussing religious issues, which also demonstrated the people's religious inclination.
