Why was Greek society so based?

>no Christianity
>fun buttsex with young boys
>open mockery for people who didn't know themselves
>no pride was a mortal sin
>everything was a fucking competition, refusing to compete made you a bitch
>literally banned wars before the olympics so people could watch in safety
>athens held races to see who the oldest men were
>the greek plays were written in competitions
>literally held off the persians
>recognized at first the delicate balance necessary between Dionysus and Apollo

How was an ancient society so fucking based and full of life where ours is filled with weebs and 4chan users?

If the Greeks were so great why did the conservative Romans win
>>
>>1162626
More warlike and unified. They didn't care as much for art, learning, and culture.

Of course the Greeks won the soft war with Rome and any wealthy Roman was educated in Greece.

Greek society grew a cancerous tumor with Socrates that grew.

Most oxymoronic statement I've read this week.

>>1163239
Are you judging them by puritan values or something
>>
>>1162626
Its anachronistic, but I guess technically they were more "conservative", when it came to sex, compared to the Greeks. Still they were absolute degenerates compared to what Christianity brought.
>>
>>1163260
Romans didn't eat grapes and fuck boys all day like the christian memeology might have you believe. They were monogamists who demanded a level of cultural assimilation and civil service. I guess some high level politicians and wealthy Romans might have had a few orgies but that wasn't in line with Roman values.
